How Different Are the Nordics? Unravelling the Willingness to Make Economic Sacrifices for the Environment

The Nordic countries are often considered as remarkably exceptional in terms of the proenvironmental behavior of their citizens and also as forerunners in environmental policies. However, very few empirical studies have been done at the aggregated level about how the Nordics compare to other countries. The article addresses this knowledge gap and analyzes the Nordic region in terms of willingness

VR Teleoperation to support a GPS-free Positioning System in a Marine Environment

Small autonomous surface vehicles (ASV) will need both teleoperation support and redundant positioning technology to comply with expected future regulations. When at sea, they are limited by a satellite communication link with low throughput. We have designed and implemented a graphical user interface (GUI) for teleoperation using a communication link with low throughput, and one positioning syste

study in sound - the quarry

Quadrophonic work created in 2018 and included in the event 'A Shrinking Emptiness', led by Anders Hultqvist at the GAS festival. The event consisted of a concert and concert/installation/lecture performance and took place at the Atalante in Gothenburg. The study was published in a binaural format in 2020 in A. Hultqvist & G. D. Hansson (Eds.) Gränser och oändligheter –Musikalisk och litterär

Se stan bortom Sea U

En artikel som ingå i en debattserie kring en invigning av ett nytt område i Helsingborg. Artikeln problematiserar diskussionen kring stadsutveckling, och efterlyser ett bredare perspektiv som inkluderar både hårda och mjuka värden.

COVID-19, Inequality and People on the Move

Intersectional discrimination against people on the move underpins inadequate responses to COVID-19. The right to enjoy the benefits of scientific progress and its applications clearly demands substantive racial equality when designing economic and public health measures to address the pandemic.

Demarketing tourism for sustainability : Degrowing tourism or moving the deckchairs on the titanic?

Demarketing is generally recognized as that aspect of marketing that aims at discouraging customers in general or a certain class of customers in particular on either a temporary or permanent basis and has been increasingly posited as a potential tool to degrow tourism and improve its overall sustainability, particularly as a result of so-called overtourism. The paper provides an overview of the v

Genome-wide Association Analysis in Humans Links Nucleotide Metabolism to Leukocyte Telomere Length

Leukocyte telomere length (LTL) is a heritable biomarker of genomic aging. In this study, we perform a genome-wide meta-analysis of LTL by pooling densely genotyped and imputed association results across large-scale European-descent studies including up to 78,592 individuals. We identify 49 genomic regions at a false dicovery rate (FDR) < 0.05 threshold and prioritize genes at 31, with five highli

Subjective Judgment and Gender Bias in Advice: Evidence from the Laboratory

Better understanding and reducing gender gaps in the labor market remains an important policy goal. We study the role of advice in sustaining these gender gaps using a laboratory experiment. In the experiment, “advisers” advise “workers” to choose between a more ambitious and a less ambitious task based on the worker’s subjective self-assessment. We expected female workers to be less confident and

Kämpinge Interactive Reporting System

3D recording and visualization is standard practice at the Department of Archaeology and Ancient History at LU. This approach is currently used within several field projects to support documentation, data management and data analysis. The 3D data collected in the field are archived in the faculty server and are made available to researchers and students through the Lund University Digital Archaeol

At the 100 years anniversary in 2020 of the Reunion around 650 memorials have been protected. The memorials are to be found all over Denmark, where they constitute the largest group. The time of their erection, the localization, design, inscriptions, pictures and initiators are relatively well known. The article investigates two main questions. Firstly, why have so many memorials for the Reunion bAt the 100 years anniversary in 2020 of the Reunion around 650 memorials have been protected.

Deep Situated Listening Among Hearing Heads and Affective Bodies

This chapter argues for a new listening practice for electroacoustic music (EAM) that I call “deep situated listening”. “Deep situated listening” builds on existing EAM-theories, aesthetics and practices – which I here collectively refer to as the “hearing heads” approach – but extends this approach by adding an explicitly feminist perspective. “Deep situated listening” combines Donna Haraway’s no

Feasibility studies for the measurement of time-like proton electromagnetic form factors from p¯ p→ μ+μ- at P ¯ ANDA at FAIR

This paper reports on Monte Carlo simulation results for future measurements of the moduli of time-like proton electromagnetic form factors, | GE| and | GM| , using the p¯ p→ μ+μ- reaction at P ¯ ANDA (FAIR). The electromagnetic form factors are fundamental quantities parameterizing the electric and magnetic structure of hadrons. This work estimates the statistical and total accuracy with which th

Age and metallicity gradients in the Galactic Bulge : A differential study using HST/WFPC2 observations

We test for age and metallicity gradients in the Galactic Bulge between the two low extinction windows Baade's window (l = 1°.1 b = -4°.8) and Sagittarius-I (l = 1°.3 b = -2°.7). We derive a metallicity difference of ≤ 0.2 dex between BW and SGR-I window. This corresponds to a metallicity gradient of 1.3 dex kpc-1. This steep gradient is reconcilable with the existence of a short scale length inne

Toxicological effects of zinc oxide nanoparticle exposure: an in vitro comparison between dry aerosol air-liquid interface and submerged exposure systems

Engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) are increasingly produced and used today, but health risks due to their occupational airborne exposure are incompletely understood. Traditionally, nanoparticle (NP) toxicity is tested by introducing NPs to cells through suspension in the growth media, but this does not mimic respiratory exposures. Different methods to introduce aerosolized NPs to cells cultured at t

Engineering solutions using acoustic spectral finite element methods

The spectral finite element method is an advanced implementation of the finite element method in which the solution over each element is expressed in terms of a priori unknown values at carefully selected spectral nodes. These methods are naturally chosen to solve problems in regular rectangular, cylindrical or spherical regions. However in a general irregular region it would be unwise to turn awa
