Pollinering med hjälp av vilda insekter gynnar pollineringsberoende grödor. Anläggning och bevarande av pollinatörsvänliga habitat är därför en investering som kan öka avkastningen i jordbruket. Pollinerare är mobila organismer som rör sig över större avstånd i landskapet. Därför kan ett habitat vara till nytta inte bara för den jordbrukare som förvaltar det, utan även för gårdar runtomkring. Vi u
Viljan att skydda växter och djur får ibland orimliga effekter. Det skriver flera företrädare för Moderaternas arbetsgrupp för en kommande miljöpolitik på DN debatt.Farlig polariseringDe tar bland annat upp viktiga frågor om ”människans plats i naturen”. Men konflikten mellan utveckling och miljö är en återkommande missuppfattning. Frågan om naturvården främst bör utgå från människans eller nature
Inom EU pågår arbete för att skydda viktiga naturområden bl.a. genom s.k. LIFE projekt (se t.ex. Eldridge m.fl. 2007). Därmed kan EU bidra med ekonomiskt stöd till biotop-vård, t.ex. upprätthållande av betesdriften på strandängarna, vilket bl.a. skedde genom projektet LIFE-BaltCoast (2007 – 2011) (http://www.life-balt-coast.eu/). Natura 2000-om-rådena skall samtidigt göras tillgängliga för turism.
Historically, companies have communicated taxes as a burden, as the benefits provided by governments are not perceived to be in proportion to their payments. With sustainable development becoming central in many policy areas, new discourses including ‘fair’ or ‘sustainable’ tax have become omnipresent in public talk on taxes.

In this paper, we aggregate, analyze, and exemplify several metrics for the information value. The metrics vary by absolute value, normalizations, or full probabilistic quantification. The normalization of the information value encompasses the division by (1) the expected and maximized utility of the base scenario (usually without additional information), (2) by the system performance, or (3) by t
This entry reviews the ways in which “traditional” intimacy concerning sex and relationships have been transformed by communication technologies, as well as how these technologies have made a range of other connections “intimate.” It does so by discussing three different kinds of mediated intimacy as it is expressed in the Global North. The first meaning refers to work on the way in which discours
Klimatförhållandena har stor betydelse för om en art kan ha livskraftiga populationer på en viss plats, både genom direkta effekter på organismerna, och indirekta effekter på andra arter i ekosystemet, det vill säga arter som den är beroende av, predatorer och konkurrenter. Den biologiska mångfalden är viktig för ekosystemens förmåga att klara klimatförändringar. Vårt användande av landskapet ka
The predicament in which we find ourselves today is that many professionals lack a sufficient grounding in formal methods, tools and techniques to enable them to make an appropriate selection for different kinds of problem. This can mean that complexity remains unrecognized and ambiguous problem situations are addressed as if they were clear and straightforward, resulting in inadequate solutions t
It is easy when studying the literature on the current development toward closer more integrated business to business relationships to get the impression that a close integrated relationship is desired for all circumstances. Instead, this thesis shows that the nature of business relationship is very strongly correlated to product supplied. The focus of this thesis has been a case study between a s
From an ecological point of view it is important to close nutrient cycles by recirculating mineral nutrients from the urban society back to agriculture and forestry, and thereby obtaining a sustainable resource utilisation. A part of this cycle is illustrated by irrigation of bioreactor landfill leachates on short rotation forests. This paper presents a budget for nutrients and heavy metals, begin
Background: Although transposition of the great arteries (TGA) accounts for less than 5% of congenital heart disease, the clinical course is often dramatic with need for early diagnosis and careful preoperative care as well as advanced surgical correction and postoperative support. Since 1993, Lund is one of the two tertiary referral centers for pediatric cardiac surgery in Sweden, with nearly 400
Multinational Corporations (MNCs) or Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) are of great importance in the global economy. A great amount of international trade is either between multinational corporations or within a multinational corporation, which is called intra-firm trade. Therefore, intra-firm trade is also of importance in the global economy. The price used in intra-firm trade is called transfer
This paper explores the impact of foreign aid on firm investment in physical capital using a dataset of 10 783 firms in 21 of the least developed countries. Using data from the World Bank Enterprise Surveys combined with sector allocated Official Development Assistance obtained from OECD CRS, no significant effect of aid was found. Fixed effects for country, sector and year did not change this res
Corporate Governance, som begrepp, har under de senaste åren fått en allt större betydelse, både nationellt och internationellt, i debatten kring hur företag skall ledas. Den teoribildning som ligger till grund för begreppet corporate governance har drag av såväl företagsekonomi som juridik. Inom företagsekonomin har det länge funnits teorier om vad som är ett effektivt corporate governance arbete
Even though the prevalence of synaesthetic-like ‘Visually-Evoked Auditory Responses’ (V-EAR) in the general population is probably immense by all standards, it is hardly ever mentioned in the literature on general synaesthetic phenomena. We decided to try to reproduce earlier findings that about 1/5 experience motion-conjured sound percepts. We did so with a good margin (27% of our participants cl
In later time many companies have faced a major strategically change of focus and companies that have previous acted as traditional product manufacturers now describe themselves as providers of complete solutions. Tetra Pak Processing Systems, operating in the liquid food processing industry, has faced an increased level of competition the past years. The globalization of the industry means that c

According to article 37(b) of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), a deprivation of liberty of a child must be ''lawful'', ''non-arbitrary'', used as a ''measure of last resort only'' and ''for the shortest appropriate period of time''. Measures that contain deprivations of liberty shall be used in exceptional cases, as sa
The United Nations has declared climate change a code-red for humanity and the 2020s the decisive decade to avoid dangerous climate disruption. The 26th Conference of the Parties in Glasgow, Scotland represents a milestone event and potentially the last chance to keep the Paris Climate Agreement 1.5 °C policy goal within reach. The tourism sector has responded to this critical moment by releasing
