Biological invasions offer fertile grounds for studying evolutionary ecology because species’ contact histories are uncharacteristically well-defined. As a result, invasions can be used to gain glimpses of the earliest micro-evolutionary responses of natural populations to new species’ interactions by studying changes in behaviour, physiology or morphology in space and time. Here, the known histor

In this paper the Ertebølle pottery will be in focus, and it serves as an entrance for a short discussion of its role in the time in question, as part of networks, creolization, and in the neolithisation. The interpretation of the meaning of the ceramics and the materiality gives further perspectives to interpret this early pottery handicraft, its technological conditions and artistic design. In t

A condensed account of the history of the production and spread of books, in manuscript and in print, in the Nordic countries during the handpress period. Attention is paid to printing as a factor in the formation of national languages.

Originally published in two volumes in 1748-9, John Cleland’s Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure (or Fanny Hill) has long been an underground classic. Because of this underground status, and the prejudicial treatment of literary pornography, Memoirs has never been thoroughly investigated. Above all, insufficient attention has been given to the educational and moral aspects of Cleland’s novel. Cleland’

A method for recognizing inhalations in spontaneous speech is presented. It is similar to the template matching technique; a distance measure is calculated between a reference sound and an equally long portion of the same sound being tracked. A feature representation consisting of the standard Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC), obtained by performing a discrete Cosine Transform of the mel

Popular Abstract in English Among the large variety of experiments performed in science, a common one is to pass a light beam through a sample, the object to be studied, and to study the outcomes of the light-sample interaction. Many light sources have been used for this purpose, like light bulbs and lasers. A modern light source used nowadays is the so-called storage ring. In the storage rings elSynchrotron radiation sources have greatly contributed to the progress in many fields of science. The development of the storage ring technologies has made possible to obtain very low emittance electron beams, which together with the use of undulators allow guiding a very high photon flux into a very small spot required by the experiments. Development of the sources has been accompanied with equa

Leaching tests have been carried out on concrete with fly ash or blast furnace slag as additives. Different models for leaching processes are proposed and analyzed, and physical/chemical interactions that may occur during a leaching process are discussed. Furthermore, simulations with different conditions and with different mathematical solutions are shown. The results of the leaching tests are di

The paper is in part an evaluation of using virtual focus groups in existing commercial platforms as a research method, in part a pilot study on motives and perceptions of Facebook users concerning political participation in social media. Two focus groups were set up in the commercial social network Facebook, consisting each of six participants, all of them residing in Sweden. One of the groups co

Popular Abstract in Swedish Liposuction och kontrollerad kompressionsbehandling av armlymfödem efter bröstcancerbehandling Behandlingen av bröstcancer är kirurgisk. Förutom att bröstet avlägsnas innefattar behandlingen ofta borttagning av lymfkörtlar i armhålan samt strålbehandling. Detta leder till att flödet av lymfa från armen kraftigt försämras med svullnad som följd (lymfödem). Detta inträffLiposuction and controlled compression therapy in the treatment of arm lymphedema following breast cancer About one-third of all women treated for breast cancer develop arm lymphedema. The cancer itself is a worry, but the swollen and heavy arm is an additional handicap for the patients, both physical and psychosocial. Previous surgical and conservative treatments have not always given satisfacto
