Popular Abstract in Swedish I denna avhandling studeras begravningsentreprenörernas arbete. Materialet är i första hand inhämtat genom intervjuer och observationer på begravningsbyråer som tillhör Sveriges Begravningsbyråers Förbund. Begravningsentreprenörer upplever att det finns en negativ bild av yrket, som är kopplad till hanteringen av avlidna. Samtidigt efterfrågas begravningsentreprenörernThis dissertation has a dual purpose. Firstly to describe what funeral directors do and how they experience their work. Secondly to see if, and in that case how, funeral directors influence rites around the deceased, both official as well as more private rites. The study is based on text analysis, interviews with 32 funeral directors and field studies on four funeral parlours. Only funeral directo

We present a synthesis of the results of a multiproxy, multisite, palaeoecological study of Holocene environmental change in Kamchatka, Far East Russia, details of which are presented elsewhere in the volume. We summarise the results of the analyses of pollen, diatom, chironomid, and testate amoebae assemblages, together with stable isotopes of oxygen and carbon, and sediment characteristics from

Questions: To what extent is species richness in semi-natural grasslands related to local environmental factors and (present/past) surrounding landscape structure? Do responses of species richness depend on degree of habitat specialization (specialists vs generalists) and/or scale of the study? Location: Öland, Sweden. Methods: Richness of herbaceous vascular plants (subdivided into richness of gr

Question To what extent do historical and present-day management regimes and landscape characteristics affect the functional structure of semi-natural grassland communities? Location Semi-natural grasslands, the Baltic island of Öland, Sweden. Methods We assessed community functional structure within 475 (50 cm × 50 cm) semi-natural grassland vegetation plots using two indices: community-weighte

Oxygen (delta O-18) and carbon (delta C-13) isotope records of calcitic carbonate components (Chara sp. algal encrustations and Bithynia tentaculata gastropod opercula) from a lake-sediment succession on the Baltic Sea island of Gotland, south-eastern Sweden, have been obtained to investigate regional climate dynamics during the Holocene. The hydrological sensitivity of the small lake, particularl

Changes in solar activity have previously been proposed to cause decadal- to millennial-scale fluctuations in both the modern and Holocene climates(1). Direct observational records of solar activity, such as sunspot numbers, exist for only the past few hundred years, so solar variability for earlier periods is typically reconstructed from measurements of cosmogenic radionuclides such as Be-10 and

The relationship between climatic variations, vegetation dynamics and early human activity between c. 4150-2860 BC was reconstructed from a high-resolution pollen and geochemical record obtained from a small lake located in County Sligo, Ireland. The proxy record suggests the existence of a woodland with a largely closed canopy at the start of the fourth millennium BC. Only minor human disturbance

The vegetation history of the Faroe Islands has been investigated in numerous studies all broadly showing that the early-Holocene vegetation of the islands largely consisted of fellfield with gravely and rocky soils formed under a continental climate which shifted to an oceanic climate around 10,000 cal yr BP when grasses, sedges and finally shrubs began to dominant the islands. Here we present da

High resolution palaeoenvironmental records in Far-Eastern Russia are rare, and the Kamchatka Peninsula is among the least studied areas of the region. This paper describes a record spanning the last ca. 11,000 yr, obtained from a bog in the southern part of Kamchatka. The radiocarbon dated core was analysed for pollen, testate amoebae, charcoal and loss-on-ignition (LOI). The vegetation during th

Here, we present results from the most comprehensive compilation of Holocene peat soil properties with associated carbon and nitrogen accumulation rates for northern peatlands. Our database consists of 268 peat cores from 215 sites located north of 45 degrees N. It encompasses regions within which peat carbon data have only recently become available, such as the West Siberia Lowlands, the Hudson B

In today’s world, where viewing television is one of the most prominent leisure activities, it is only natural that the scenes seen on the screen can have an impact on the image that people have of certain destinations. While film tourism is not a new phenomenon, it is relatively young in academic research and many aspects and perspectives are yet to be examined. This paper makes use of the stakeh

As digital transformation continues to expand, the threat landscape for cyber-attacks has become increasingly complex. Proactive detection and prevention of cyber-threats are essential to secure critical infrastructures. This thesis proposes an approach centered on leveraging data analysis and Machine Learning (ML) to analyze and predict the existence of potential cyber-threats. By harnessing the

The capacity for birds to adjust their breeding time to variation in spring temperature via plasticity is crucial for insectivorous passerines in temperate areas, particularly in a context of climate disruptions. Recent studies suggested that phenological plasticity varies in response to environmental change via urbanization. We investigated the effects of urbanization on laying date, its phenotyp

The AI Commission prescribed a governance model, namely centralized leadership, to tackle existing digitalization challenges, as outlined in the Roadmap for Sweden at the end of 2024. This research discussed the implications of the Roadmap for Sweden on welfare governance within the Automated Decision-making (ADM) context as interpreted through a Weberian theoretical and methodological framework.

This thesis investigates how individuals in Sweden perceive the sustainability of electric car usage, using the Triple Bottom Line framework, which encompasses environmental, economic, and social dimensions. The primary aim is to gain insight into the genuine sustainability intentions of electric car users and to understand how they interpret sustainability not only in terms of environmental i
