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

Brown seaweeds are marine macro algae, which are quite unexplored for their potential uses in food products in Europe. Saccharina latissima and Alaria esculenta are fast growing brown seaweeds species in European countries, mainly found in Norway and cold waters of the North Atlantic. These species are known to be rich sources of iodine, protein, polyphenols, carbohydrates and micronutrients like

I debatten om förändringarna i lagen om anställningsskydd, har den ökade möjligheten till omställning och kompetensutveckling presenterats som vinsten för arbetstagarsidan. Reformen innebär att anställningsskyddet minskat på en mängd områden och att arbetstagaren som kompensation getts ökade möjligheter till kompetensutveckling och omställning. Som en del av den ökade möjligheten till kompetensutvFollowing the reform of the Employment Protection Act, where enhanced options for employee upscaling and re-skilling were introduced, a debate has centered around the consequences that this will have for the employee. The Employment Protection Act reform includes a weakening of employment protection in general. As compensation, the employees have been granted enhanced opportunities to engage in co

The lower electronic states of the molecule PbO have been studied using a newly developed basis set of the atomic natural orbital (ANO) type. The method includes scalar relativistic effects through the use of a Douglas-Kroll Hamiltonian. Multiconfigurational wave functions have been used with dynamic correlation included using second-order perturbation theory (CASSCF/CASPT2). Spin-orbit coupling i

Rapporten innefattar en detaljerad beskrivning och utvärdering av de existerande tyska och schweiziska nätverk för energieffektivisering. Baserat på resultatet, finns även ett förslag på en modell för energieffektiviseringsnätverk anpassad för Sverige som består av fyra faser: rekryteringsfas, energikartläggningsfas, nätverksfas och uppföljningsfas. Från studien drogs även slutsatsen att de viktig

Rapporten är en kartläggning av Tyska och Schweiziska nätverk för energieffektivisering och bygger på litteraturstudier och intervjuer. Utifrån vad som kommer fram i kartläggningen ges ett förslag på hur en svensk modell för energieffektiviseringsnätverk bör se ut.

In Sweden, the 10th most common occupation is professional cleaning. Cleaning workers are exposed to many risk factors including high physical workload and the development of new-onset asthma and other types of respiratory symptoms. This master thesis has been a part of a research project at the division of Ergonomics and Aerosol Technology (EAT), Lund University, in which the health aspect of cle

The steel and chemical production industries are the largest industrial emitters of greenhouse gases in the European Union, together accounting for half of the EU’s industrial greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. A promising strategy for achieving deep GHG emissions reductions is the electrification of these two industries, which would depend on the rapid expansion of renewable electricity supply. Such

Observed rotational bands that terminate or appear to terminate at very high spin are analyzed within the configuration constrained cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky (unpaired CNS or CNSB with pairing) formalism. Spin values for the nuclei discussed reach or come close to the maximum spin that can be built within the Z,N=50-82 shells. Configurations are distinguished not only by the number of particles i

The E4SD (Energy for Sustainable Development) Online Course is a joint initiative led by the International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics (IIIEE) at Lund University, Sweden with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), and the Global Network on Energy for Sustainable Development (GNESD) as partners. The overall objective of

Detta projekt utforskar en ny kategori av funktionella sportskor, anpassade för en av de snabbast växande sporterna idag - HY- ROX. Målet med projektet är att designa en tävlingsko för Hyrox som kombinerar egenskaper för löpning med funktionell träning. Projektet fokuserar både på de funktionella aspekterna i skon och att utrycka sportens identitet i designen. Förstudien inkluder- ar intervjuer meThis project explores a new area of performance shoes aimed for one of the fastest growing sports today - HYROX. The goal for this project is to design a Hyrox specific racing shoe that combine properties for running with functional training. The project focus on the performance aspects of the shoe as well as expressing the identity of the sport. Research involve interviews with high level Hyrox c

The neurobiological basis and temporal dynamics of communicative language processing pose important yet unresolved questions. It has previously been suggested that comprehension of the communicative function of an utterance, i.e. the so-called speech act, is supported by an ensemble of neural networks, comprising lexico-semantic, action and mirror neuron as well as theory of mind circuits, all act

The intrastriatal 6-hydroxydopamine lesion model in rats is particularly useful in studies testing new therapeutic strategies for Parkinson’s disease. This thesis work (1) describes the characterization of the motor deficits after different types of intrastriatal lesions and identifies the four-site terminal lesion as a model of symptomatic Parkinson’s disease; (2) using the same model, provides e

We aimed to study differences in the prescribing of warfarin, aspirin and statins to patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) in socio-economically diverse neighborhoods. We also aimed to explore the effects of neighborhood deprivation on the relationship between CHADS2 risk score and warfarin prescription.

Abstract in UndeterminedThe sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA) technique offers a potentially invaluable means of investigating species evolution and extinction dynamics in high-latitude environments. An implicit assumption of the sedaDNA approach is that the extracted DNA is autochthonous with the host deposit and that it has not been physically transported from older source deposits or reworked w

A common mammalian defense mechanism employed to prevent systemic dissemination of invasive bacteria involves occlusion of local microvasculature and encapsulation of bacteria within fibrin networks. Acquisition of plasmin activity at the bacterial cell surface circumvents this defense mechanism, allowing invasive disease initiation. To facilitate this process, S. pyogenes secretes streptokinase,

OBJECTIVE: Traditional rejection surveillance after heart transplantation (HTx) is based on endomyocardial biopsies (EMB), which are invasive, expensive and associated with complications. Monitoring using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is promising, but most studies report only on the donor fraction (DF) as the percentage of donor derived-cfDNA (dd-cfDNA) relative to total-cfDNA. We evaluated the performan
