The newest Scottish government Biodiversity Strategy prioritises control of overabundant deer populations. Ecological theory and real-life instances suggest an unorthodox deer management solution: wolf reintroduction (WR). Theoretically, wolves would prey on deer, thus alleviate grazing pressure on Scottish vegetation and help landscapes thrive. A fenced, experimental WR (EWR) would verify whether

In disaster risk management, participatory mapping (PM) closes spatial data gaps in communities by integrating local risk knowledge. The thesis examined the potential and limitations of the Sketch Map Tool (SMT) as a PM tool for community-based disaster risk reduction (DRR) through an International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement case study. The research evaluated the SMT's applicability for c

This case study aims to answer how Swedish agriculture adapts to increased electricity prices, as well as the subsidy on electricity provided by the Swedish government in 2023. The study uses data from 10 interviews with firms in the sector and a microeconomic production theory for analysis. The results indicate that the total production of firms is not affected by the increased price. However, a

Frågeställning: Vilka krav på utdelning ställer aktieägarna på de kommunalt ägda energibolagen? Hur motiveras utdelning i kommunernas styrdokument? Hur transparent är informationen i styrdokumenten om motiven samt vad utdelningen används till? Syfte: Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur kommuner motiverar utdelning inom kommunalt ägda energibolag samt hur transparent informationen är, för att bid

In 2023, the national care program for childhood obesity was published, which states that it is a complex disease and that obesity is a stigmatized condition in society.

The essay is an analysis of the intermediality of literature and music with an emphasis on music psychology and the poetic and cultural representations of the cello. The research is applied on Steven Galloway's ''The Cellist of Sarajevo'', in order to interpret the characters' experience of music and examine its therapeutic value.

This thesis examines the effects of pseudo and quasi-random number generators on the accuracy and efficiency of Monte Carlo Integration in the case of the multivariate normal distribution. The study compares the performance of the Mersenne Twister (a pseudo-random number generator) with Sobol and Halton sequences (quasi-random number generators). By evaluating these generators across different dim

Världen behöver ställa om till en cirkulär ekonomi och asfalt är en produkt som är 100 procent återvinningsbar. Hanteringen börjar redan när beläggningen skall fräsas eller rivas. Genom att optimera denna process, kan asfalten återvinnas mer effektivt. Syftet med denna studie är att studera vad som förekommer med returasfalten när den fräses och vilka styrparametrar som asfaltfräsen kan påverka föThe world needs to move to a circular economy and asphalt is a 100 percent recyclable product. Recycling begins when the pavement is milled or demolished. By doing this process in the best possible way, asphalt can be recycled more efficiently. The purpose of this study is to study what happens to the recycled asphalt when it is milled and which parameters that the asphalt milling machine can cont

I städer där betong ofta dominerar, i en värld där klimatförändringar ställer krav på handling, vänder sig allt fler till naturen för svar. Denna masteruppsats utforskar hur Naturbaserade lösningar (NbS) och Artificiell Intelligens (AI) kan integreras i samhällsplaneringen för att främja utvecklingen av grönare och mer motståndskraftiga urbana miljöer. NbS utnyttjar fördelarna med träd och grönomrAs our cities face the growing impacts of climate change, there is a pressing need to rethink urban development through innovative lenses. One approach is to venture into this change by transforming the functions of the cities to let nature assist in community tasks, thereby reducing the footprint of greenhouse gases. This study shows the integration of Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) and Artificial

Under lång tid har statistiken kring sexuella övergrepp visat att det finns en klyfta mellan antalet anmälningar av våldtäkt och antalet fällda domar i Sverige. Det har mot denna bakgrund gjorts studier av orsakerna till det. Syftet med denna uppsats är att analysera hur Brottsförebyggande rådet (Brå) problematiserar utredning kring våldtäktsfall i det svenska rättsväsendet i sin rapport Våldtäkt

As the processing power of computers continuously increase so does the interest for machine learning and artificial intelligence. This thesis evaluates the forecasting performance of both machine learning models and common auto-regressive models on the Swedish stock market index OMXS30 on the Stockholm stock exchange during the 2008 financial crises. Forecasts are performed 3, 6 and 12 months ahea

Transpersoner har på gruppnivå sämre hälsa än cispersoner, vilket kan förstås utifrån minoritetsstressteori. Ett sätt att öka deras välmående är genom transbekräftande kognitiv beteendeterapi och denna studie undersökte deltagarnas upplevelser av en sådan intervention. Interventionen var terapeutledd, individuell och internetbaserad och riktade sig till transpersoner i Sverige. Åtta semistrukturerTrans and gender diverse people report significantly poorer health than cisgender people. This could be understood as an effect of minority stress. One way of enhancing their wellbeing is through transgender affirming cognitive-behavioural therapy, and this study investigated participant experiences of such an intervention. The intervention was therapist led, individual, internet based and directe

The purpose of the study is to investigate how current laws consider the introduction of a circular economy (CE) and reuse in the procurement stage. The study also aims to investigate what legal support is missing for reused materials to be used more than it does today. The work also aims to study the extent to which public clients currently work with reuse. In addition to that, the study investig
