Effects of carbon functionalization on the catalytic properties of the space underneath epitaxial graphene flakes on Ir(111) are investigated with Ambient Pressure X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy studies of oxygen hydrogenation. The 0.1 mbar oxygen atmosphere hosting O-intercalated graphene flakes was replaced with hydrogen pulses lasting 50 s each, triggering the water formation. Underneath prisChemical reactions confined to near atomic scales have many hypothesized applications. The demand for ever smaller electronical components with superior electric properties for example requires atoms to group in specific shapes that can only be cast in confined spaces. Biological cells are an example of confined reactions in the nature. Hence, in order to recreate those processes, to develop bette

Suddträsket är ett internationellt erkänt våtmarksområde av stor betydelse som ligger beläget längst Vita Nilen i Sydsudan. Våtmarkens unika ekologiska miljöer har lett till skapandet av flera naturskyddsområden för bevarandet av de naturliga habitaten och dess ovärderliga ekosystemtjänster. Tillsyn av skyddsområdena bidrar i allmänhet till deras bevarande. Däremot har de pågående politiska osäkerThe Sudd wetland, situated along the White Nile in the Republic of South Sudan, is recognized internationally for its unique environmental features. The distinctive ecological characteristics have resulted in the creation of numerous nature reserves in efforts to conserve the habitats and ecosystem services provided. Monitoring changes within the nature reserves usually contributes to their protec

Battling the covid-19 pandemic, the Swedish authorities focal point as to reducing the spread of infection has mainly been brought about by the issuing of recommendations. The aim of this study is to examine the compliance of the recommendation issued by The Public Health Agency of Sweden (Folkhälsomyndigheten) regarding the carrying of masks in public transport. The results were explained using t

Paleodemography is the study of evaluating and reconstructing ancient populations based on the processes of fertility, mortality and migration. In addition, structural variables such as life expectancy, population distribution and population density are included in order to calculate the demography of a given population at a given time. The paleodemographic processes and variables are all dependen

The following thesis investigates Japanese native speakers’ attitudes towards linguistic changes and the degree to which they associate it with social aspects and changes on a wider- encompassing spectrum. More specifically, the study looks at the phenomenon commonly known as kotoba no midare (“disarray in the language”), a notion that has long been part of the Japanese public discourse surroundin

Virusinfektioner har utan tvekan blivit det största hälsoproblemet i världen. I skrivande stund når antalet COVID-19 infektioner i världen upp emot 151 800 000 vilket gör att behovet av vacciner och antivirala läkemedel är viktigare nu än någonsin tidigare. Influensa A är ytligare ett virus som orsakar överdödlighet, trotts att många klarar sig lindrigt vid infektion. För att kunna förhindra ellerWith viral infections becoming an ever-increasing health problem in the world, the study of viral proteins is a cornerstone for understanding and preventing future pandemics. The following work shows the purification and structural characterization of the Influenza A M2 proton channel through solid-state NMR (ssNMR). Despite previously published structures of the M2 proton channel, the method of p

In previous years, the crisis communication literature has increasingly emphasised the need for closer examination of internal crisis communication, thereby focussing on employees during crises. Additionally, so far, no research has been conducted exploring internal crisis communication and its impact on employee well-being. The present study aimed at closing this gap by investigating whether inte

Every year, millions of people are internally displaced as a result of disasters and the adverse effects of climate change. Considering that climate change acts as a “threat multiplier”, thus, posing a serious risk to the fundamental rights, such as the rights to life, health, food, an adequate standard of living of individuals and communities worldwide, it is expected that the magnitude of this i
