Det huvudsakliga syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om ett fullgott juridiskt ramverk i syfte att skydda den arktiska regionen redan är etablerat, eller om ytterligare juridiska instrument behöver tillkomma för att så ska vara fallet. Frågan diskuteras med bakgrund av det faktum att den arktiska isen smälter i en hög takt, och att framtiden för regionen sannolikt kommer att se väldigt annorThe main purpose of this thesis is to examine whether or not the legal framework to govern the Arctic can be said to be in place already, or if additional judicial measures need to be taken, given the future that awaits the region as a result of the ongoing rapid ice melt. For many decades, or even centuries, it was the common perception that the Arctic would remain permanently ice-covered, and be

Uppsatsen behandlar detaljplaner och vilken roll dessa har vid en kommande bygglovsprövning. Syftet är att utifrån den rättsdogmatiska metoden, utreda om det vid en bygglovsprövning uppkommer några problem med en detaljplan som inte har reglerat byggrätten samt om anpassnings- och omgivningskravet i 2 kap. PBL tillmäts större betydelse när sådana planer ska beaktas. Att en detaljplan inte har regThe thesis examines detailed development plans and what position detailed development plans have in a future examination of building permits. In the light of a legal dogmatic method, the purpose is to examine if any problems arise when a detailed development plan does not contain building regulations. Since detailed development plans are valid until they are changed or repealed, there are many e

The purpose of conducting this study was to analyze how forced expropriations and the demolitions of informal settlements could fall under the umbrella of “climate change adaptation” measures. Using an actor-network lens and translation theory, these translations are systematically broken down between three distinct levels: global discourse, national discourse, and implementation. As the idea of a

Research shows that the ecologically most vulnerable regions of the world are also at risk of volatile conflict as a result of decreased economical productivity, migration and ethnic tensions. In societies that lack the ingenuity to adapt to resource scarcity, these processes might fuel or cause resentment and escalate to full-scale intrastate conflict. The Philippines has for centuries experience

Eutrophication continues to be a problem in the freshwaters in Scania of southern Sweden, much due to urban waste water and the large amount of agricultural land in the region. In order to combat this, many different measures have been made to lower the nutrient loading by the region's different water organisations, including the creation of wetlands, ponds and two-step trenches. This study wa

Faiveley Group is an international company present in 22 countries, and with their headquarters in France. The subsidiary Faiveley Transport Nordic AB, Faiveley, is responsible for the Nordic and Baltic markets and is also the competence centre for the development of the BFC brakes. Faiveley is currently in a changing period and various projects are currently in progress, including hiring outside

BACKGROUND: There is uncertainty about the relevance of animal foods to the pathogenesis of ischemic heart disease (IHD). We examined meat, fish, dairy products, and eggs and risk for IHD in the pan-European EPIC cohort (European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer and Nutrition). METHODS: In this prospective study of 409 885 men and women in 9 European countries, diet was assessed with validate

Objectives - People who suffer a stroke are at risk of developing post-stroke depression (PSD). Not only does this lower their quality of life but it also increases their risk of another stroke or d

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Solen värmer jordytan olika mycket på olika platser dels beroende på om ytan är land, hav eller is och dels beroende på den breddgrad ytan är belägen på. Denna ojämna uppvärmning ger upphov till regionala ojämnheter i lufttrycket. Det är dessa tryckojämnheter som styr vindriktningarna i atmosfären och därmed vart alla vädersystemen rör sig. Det är alltså den ojäLong time-series of pressure measurements often have high quality because the early instruments are more or less the same as the modern ones. A time-series from Lund consisting of three daily measurements from 1780-1997 has been homogenised and is therefore suitable for analysing possible influences of the enhanced greenhouse effect. According to a two-layer model of the atmosphere one finds a shi

Since the 'Danish bottles case', where the protection of the environment was recognized as a mandatory requirement that could derogate from the free movement of goods, the ECJ has taken over an interesting role to map the boundaries of its application. The rank of Community policy and the need of integration explicitly envisaged in the EC, have had a major influence in its judicial interpr

There are a limited number of scientific studies concerned with the evaluation of DSS in general, and even less concerned with the evaluation of DSS in a clinical context. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical DSS at the Department of Orthopedics at Sahlgrenska University Hospital in order to answer how one should evaluate clinical DSS. We have in our study created a research frame

A high-pressure tank rupture is a challenging scenario requiring attention in most hydrogen applications. A common cause of rupture is an external fire heating the tank, causing increased internal pressure and/or reduction in the tensile strength of the tank material (with the relevance of each depending on tank material).Most of the available methods for prevention of such ruptures have been deveA high-pressure tank rupture is a challenging scenario requiring attention in most hydrogen applications.

Globins are usually associated with oxygen carriage in vertebrates. However, plants also contain similar heme-containing proteins, called phytoglobins (Pgbs). Unlike conventional hemoglobin, these proteins are often linked to nitric oxide metabolism, energy metabolism and redox maintenance under hypoxic and related abiotic and biotic stress conditions. Class I and II non-symbiotic Pgbs (nsPgbs) ha

Fabrication and optical characterization of single-mode polymeric embedded waveguides are performed. A specific material combination (SU-8 2005 as core and the modified SU-8 mr-L 6050XP as cladding) is chosen in order to obtain a small refractive index difference for single-mode propagation combined with the conventional fabrication method UV lithography to facilitate the integration of different

Extensive changes in public organizations have been carried through since the end of the 20th century as a way of achieving higher efficiency. Inspiration came from the private sector. The Swedish Enforcement Authority carried through several organizational changes during this time. The authority was during 1997-2006 organized in ten independent authorities subordinated to the National Tax Board.
