The Vomb Plain in central Skåne is a large sand and gravel field. lts youngest glacifluvial deposits have been investigated from a sedimentological point of view in order to define proximal to distal environments of the ancient braided river system. The following parameters have been used in studying the sandurfield: The average grain size composition and the maximum size of clasts at sites from d

Summary: The purpose of this paper is to give a petrographic and mineralogic description of a dyke complex, consisting of a metadiabase and a quartz keratophyre. The type locality is the northern part of the Kiirunavaara apatite-rich iron ore, situated in northern Sweden. In this part of the mine, the dyke complex has caused problems with rock stabil ity and water inflow. The dyke is well mapped f

Ö. Silvberg och Vallberget are two sulphide-ore mines immediately to the west of the town Säter in Dalarna. They are found in a NE-SW trending orebearing zone in the Leptite-formation. An area extending about 6 km in the NE-SW and 2 km in the perpendicular direction has been mapped. It consists of different types of volcanics, which chemically correspond to rhyolites (Na-rich, K-rich and alkali-in

lnvestigation of weak gravel for road construction has been going on at VTI for many years. The overall aim has been to find test methods that correspond with what happens in the road and that are easy to use in any road laboratory. Following methods have been used in this investigation: planetarytype mixer for wear tests, freeze-thaw variation for weathering tests, Californian Bearing Ratio (CBR)

In Bjärsjölagård layer 1b the genus Neobeyrichia is represented by Neobeyrichia spinulosa (Boll) and Neobeyrichia regnans Martinsson. N. spinulosa dominates strongly. It is here redescribed and the appearence of the last moulting stage is described. N. spinulosa was a marine, benthic species. Previous reports of N. spinulosa from Gotland (Sweden) and Denny's Formation (eastern USA) are wrong.

The Vitabäck clays, the Jurassic - Cretaceous transitionai beds in Sweden, contain brackish water faunas with close affinities to their counterparts in north-western Europe. The faunas are dominated by the bivalve genera Myrene and Neomiodon. There is no evidence for limnic or marine conditions, which previously has been assumed. The molluscan assemblages indicate somewhat differing salinity condi

Summary: The Kiruna ore is situated in northernmost Sweden, and it is one of the largest iron ore deposits that is known in the whole world. Small amounts of cobalt occur in the ore. This paper is devoted to the study of the distribution of cobalt in the Kiruna ore. Results from studies under the polarizing microscope in both transmitted and reflected light in addition to chemical wholerock analys

A classical field of Quaternary research in Skåne is the subdivision of tills in different stratigraphical units; each one related to a certain ice-stream. North of Svalöv, western Skåne, there is a very sharp boundary between two till-types, usually called Low Baltic till and Northeastern till. More recent investigations carried out by Lagerlund (1980) in other parts of western Skåne have showed

This paper is an examination work, initiated by E. Lagerlund, who has carried out investigations on the lithostratigraphy at the Margreteberg site on Rydsbjär, southern Halland. Lagerlund et.al.(l984) found a sea level at 50m a.s.l at the time of the deglaciation in the area. A regression down to at least 35m a.s.l was followed by a transgression to the highest shore line. Previous investigations

Fresh water is a scarcity in the North Kordofan province in the Sudan. The need for new sources of water is large. This work deals with the problem of locating the groundwater aquifers used today and to find areas with groundwater potentials for development in the future. The technique used is a combination of different information sources, mainly; litterature, interpreted satellite images and com

A basic intrusion (approximate1y 18 km2) occurs in southeastern Värmland about 20 km southeast of Kristinehamn. A few thin dikes of the basite penetrates the surrounding Filipstad granite. Adjacent to the basite the granite is magnetite- and garnetbearing and also secondary hypersthene and spinel are found in the granite. These observations indicate that the basite is postgranitic. The basite vari

Summary: The Joran-dome is one of the rounded granite structures found in the Precambrian of northern Sweden. It is situated near Storuman in the county of Västerbotten. It is most easily identified as a positive γ-radiation anomaly due to increased U-Th-K contents. According to a zircon U-Pb dating the age of the granites in the Joran dome is 1744 +/- 35 Ma. The country rock consists of Revsund g

During reconnaissance field work in the westernmost part of Vestranden, Nord-Trøndelag, Norway, some eclogitic rocks were found (by Leif Johansson and Charlotte Möller). They are of interest, because until now, eclogites have not been found in this northern part of the Western Gneiss Region. It is important to consider these rocks in the evolutionary context of the entire Western Gneiss Region. Th

Honor-related violence and oppression in Sweden- A qualitative study of women's shelters and shelters work This bachelor essay is intended to investigate how different women's shelters are working with women and girls with honor problematic. Honour-related violence is different from domestic violence. Honour-related violence began to attract attention very early 21-st century when the mur

The Karlshamn-granite is a greyish red to reddish grey mediumgrained rock with considerable amounts of potash feldspar megacrysts. It covers large areas of Blekinge and northeastern Scania. The granite appears as post-orogenic intrusive granitoid plutonics of very varying size and is considered to belong to the youngest granitoids in this area. The matrix mineralogy has been studied and the main m

ABSTRACT Author: Kristina Gräns, Maria Taylor. Title: Jag berusar mig på kärlek - en kvalitativ studie om vuxna barn till missbrukare Supervisor: Arne Kristiansen Assessor: Staffan Blomberg The aim of this study was to from a salutogenic perspective bring forward and present possible reasons why certain children survive against the odds, even though they have grown up in a riskfilled enviroment,

Föroreningar på en fastighet berör fastighetsägaren på olika sätt. En direkt effekt av föroreningarna kan vara att fastighetsägarens möjligheter att använda marken begränsas och att värdet på fastigheten påverkas. Det kan också få till följd att fastigheten blir svår att avyttra. Framförallt kan en förorening på fastigheten innebära att fastighetsägaren riskerar miljörättsliga krav på att vidta avPollution of real estate affects the owner in different ways. As a direct effect, the possibilities of using the land may be limited, and the value of the real estate can be influenced. The real estate may also be difficult to sell. Above all, pollution of real estate may involve environmental legal demands on the owner to repair the damage. The main rule of the Swedish environmental code is that

Min uppsats handlar om hur svenska protestanter med teologisk utbildning beskrev 800-tals missionären Ansgar mellan 1830 och 1930. Jag har i min undersökning fokuserat på hur man framställer Ansgar som missionär och munk samt vilken roll han tillskrivs för Svenska kyrkan. Mitt huvudsakliga resultat är att Ansgar hyllas och initialt tillskrivs en stor betydelse, men att det samtidigt växer fram en
