A current focus of ecosystem services (ES) implementation is on the municipal level of government where international and national legislation and policies have to be translated into practice. Given this focus, an understanding of perceptions within municipalities of the ES concept is crucial to support the implementation process. Against this background, this paper examines the perceptions of Swe

Report on the medieval parish church of Stora Köpinge in Scania, Sweden. The report is part of a never fullfiled plan of publishing short building archaeological reports on all the medieval churches of the two counties Ljunits and Herrestad at Ystad in Scania as part. The investigation was conducted as a part of the research project "The Cultural Landscape during 6000 years in Southern Sweden", al

The book emanates from a course on The Communication and Use of History at the National Graduate School of History, Lund University. It contains the graduate students' written reports.

Successful coordination of Requirements Engineering and Testing (RET) is crucial in large-scale software engineering. If the activities involved in RET are not aligned, effort is inevitably wasted, and the probability of delivering high quality software products in time decreases. Previous work has identified sixteen challenges in aligning RET in a case study of six companies. However, all six cas

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling fokuserar på effekterna av spin-ban växelverkan (SBV) i nanometerstora ferromagnetiska metallpartiklar. SBV kan betraktas som en interaktion mellan två magnetiska moment, varav det ena utgörs av elektronens spin och det andra är orsakat av elektronens egen banrörelse. Banrörelsens bidrag bygger på faktumet att ett magnetiskt moment genereras av elektrisThis thesis is a theoretical investigation of the effects of spin-orbit (SO) interactions in ferromagnetic metal nano-particles. Part I of the thesis is devoted to an elementary introduction of the research field, including recent experimental advances which partly motivated the work presented here. At the core of the thesis lie four original papers, collected in Part II, which are presented and s

Det första skedet när ett byggnadsverk ska uppföras är det konceptuella designskedet, det är här de första besluten om utformningen av byggnadsverket görs. I det traditionella arbetsflödet utformas byggnadsverket först i ett ritprogram, sedan används ett annat datorverktyg för att verifiera att det utformade byggnadsverket kan hantera de krafter som uppstår, t.ex. vind, egentyngd osv. Detta arbeteBefore a new structure can be built, it must be designed. This design phase is a very important step in the building process. The total cost of the structure and its structural performance are largely dependent on the structural design process. The impact of decisions on the design process is initially high and declines as the design matures. However, few computational tools are available for the
