Understanding, monitoring and mitigating drought is a very difficult task as a consequence of the intrinsic nature of the phenomenon. In addition, assessing the impact of drought on ecosystems and societies is also a complex task, because the same drought severity may have different consequences in different regions and systems due to the underlying vulnerabilities. New technologies based on geosp
The intensification of the hydrological cycle, with an observed and modeled increase in drought incidence and severity, underscores the need to quantify drought effects on carbon cycling and the terrestrial sink. FLUXNET, a global network of eddy covariance towers, provides dense data streams of meteorological data, and through flux partitioning and gap filling algorithms, estimates of net ecosyst
The relative complexity of the mechanisms underlying savanna ecosystem dynamics, in comparison to other biomes such as temperate and tropical forests, challenges the representation of such dynamics in ecosystem and Earth system models. A realistic representation of processes governing carbon allocation and phenology for the two defining elements of savanna vegetation (namely trees and grasses) may
Australia, characterized by extensive and heterogeneous terrestrial ecosystems, plays a critical role in the global carbon cycle and in efforts to mitigate climate change. Prior research has quantified vegetation productivity and carbon balance within the Australian context over preceding decades. Nonetheless, the responses of vegetation and carbon dynamics to the evolving phenomena of climate cha
Previous research findings suggest that our decisions are affected by the language they are made in. A recent study however indicates that this phenomenon might be related to an unexpected switch of language prior to a decision rather than to the use of a foreign language as such. To investigate this phenomenon further, the decision preferences of 200 participants, fluent in Swedish and English, w
Economic and racial discrimination goes hand in hand in the case of Syrian refugees in the labour market in Lebanon. Ever since the start of the Syrian civil war in 2011, millions of the Syrian population has fled abroad, most of whom are currently residing in its neighbouring countries, Lebanon, Turkey, and Jordan. Lebanon currently has the largest number of Syrian refugees per capita, putting pr
The aim of this study is to investigate how staff who work with persons with mental impairment living in supportive housing describe and reflect on the clients´ self-determination and which options and challenges they experience with respect to putting the intent of the Swedish act concerning support and service for people with certain functional impairments (LSS) regarding self-determination into
Mexico, the second largest economy in Latin America, has almost eradicated extreme poverty according to the Millennium Development Goals; however, official statistics show that by national standards poverty levels are still quite high, reaching up to half its population. This paper looks into how the determinants of poverty in Mexico have evolved after the last major economic crisis the country ex
The aim of this study was to examine social policy strategies for elderly care, from a class perspective. The Swedish population is getting older which increases the need of elderly care. Given this situation and that research demonstrate that the number of elderly people have doubled between 2006 and 2011, and since there is a gap of knowledge of the class perspective in elderly care. I therefore
The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to the current debate concerning the removal of the statutory audit for SMEs in Sweden. In order to fulfill the thesis purpose a qualitative research approach was used along with triangulation methods. As the basis of the thesis lies in the government report SOU 2008:32 and the official comments to this report, interviews were held with key persons which
The expansive carbon reservoirs of the boreal region are becoming some of the most rapidly growing sources of greenhouse gasses under a positive feedback between intensifying fire activity and climate change. However, current regional-scale methods lack the spatial precision needed to improve understanding of the drivers of these fluxes to inform strategies aimed at maximizing landscape carbon sto
Peatlands store a substantial amount of carbon in the terrestrial ecosystem. They are both long-term sinks of organic carbon and a major natural source of atmospheric methane. The accumulation of carbon is a result of net primary production surpassing decomposition rates over millennia, whereas methane production is intricately linked to the anaerobic decomposition of carbon mass. Warming-induced
As some insect groups are declining at alarming rates, accurate and automated insect monitoring is needed to prioritize habitats for conservation. The dual-band entomological Scheimpflug lidar technique is a promising candidate method for real-time insect monitoring: it allows the detection of thousands of flying insects per day at high temporal and spatial resolutions. The signals contain a pleth
Europeanisation refers to a process through which member states undergo social, economic and political changes to its domestic institutions that align them with EU norms and rules. In essence, it involves not only the adoption of EU policies, laws and regulations, but also incorporates EU governance structures and practices into the logic of domestic institutions. Following the EU’s largest enlarg
