Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling behandlar strömlinjeformade subglaciala bäddformer (ofta kallade drumliner) i södra Sverige. Det övergripande syftet med denna studie är att bidra till en lösning av det så kallade ”drumlinproblemet”. Termen drumlin har kommit att tillämpas på en grupp av landformer vars interna sediment, strukturella uppbyggnad och yttre form kan variera kraftigt. DessThis thesis investigates stream-lined subglacial bedforms (often referred to as drumlins) in southern Sweden. The broad aim of this is to contribute to the solution of the ‘drumlin problem’. The term drumlin has come to be applied to a wide range of features whose internal architecture (core) and overall morphology are seen to vary greatly. This range in characteristics is in part responsible for

Efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, globalized markets with intense competition, and generally rising transportation costs emphasize the importance of achieving economically and environmentally sustainable distribution systems. Many international organizations predict that if no new measures are implemented, global carbon dioxide emissions from freight transport will increase to even highe

Sweden is a member of the European Union since 1995. The European Union issues directives that cover different areas. Member states must implement these directives into their national legislation. The European council issued in 1993 a directive that took action on the organization of working time, also known as the working time directive. The full name is: Council directive 93/104/EC of 23 Novembe

For decades the largest part of European citizens has been dependant on State provided pensions. However, this safety net will not hold in the long run. Europe is going through a dramatic demographic change where the elderly group in the society is growing rapidly in size at the same time as the young generation is constantly decreasing. This change has a restraining effect on the public pension s

Phenological observations of terrestrial ecosystems are useful in monitoring the changes in the local climate due to their relatively long time series and high temporal resolution. However performing field based phenological observations can be a labour intensive and time consuming process. Using satellite-based remotely sensed data can make the process much more efficient. Although the satellites

Piratverksamhet är inte speciellt uppmärksammat i västvärlden – media lyfter inte upp det och det är heller inte en speciellt prioriterad punkt på politikernas agenda. Det betyder dock inte att det inte är ett stort problem. Det påverkar många, både känslomässigt och ekonomiskt, på en individnivå men också på en nationell, regional och global nivå. Problemet är komplext och har en lång historia,

The importance of food on achieving sustainability has been a topic increasingly moved to the forefront of the international debate. Thus, governments from around the globe have developed and adopted comprehensive food policies aiming at sustainable development. As part of this, public procurement has been identified as a powerful tool leveraging government’s purchasing power and holding an intere

På Vombverket produceras dricksvatten genom att först sila vatten från Vombsjön och därefter sprida ut det över infiltrationsdammar på Vombfältet. Vattnet infiltreras sakta ner genom markens isälvsavlagringar till ett naturligt grundvattenmagasin, och pumpas sedan upp från 120 brunnar. För att det organiska materialet från sjön ska kunna brytas ner effektivt är det viktigt att syrehalten i den omäDrinking-water for municipalities in south-western Sweden is produced at the Vomb water treatment plant east of Lund by first letting water from Lake Vombsjön pass through strainers and then spread out over recharge basins built on the Vomb Plain. The water infiltrates and slowly percolates down through the glaciofluvial deposits to a natural groundwater reservoir, and is thereafter drawn from 120

Swedish buildings, which were built in the early 60: s to mid 70: s are in great need of a restoration. Not least in view of the considerable quantities of energy that the buildings consume, this is partly due to the end of life in building components. Energy which in the worst case is obtained from non-renewable energy sources, which in turn generates significant carbon dioxide emissions worldwid

In order to study the influence of the weather on the snowmelt in the Tarfala Valley, a survey of the runoff from the snow in the valley, was performed in May and June 1988, at the Tarfala Research Station. The aim of the survey was to find a simple numerical model that corresponds well to the runoff from the snow and to identify reasons for deviating runoff in different places. The survey was bas

Problem definition: Companies competing in a market environment are trying to improve their competitiveness. A widespread company strategy is to focus on the core operations and competencies and outsource non-core activities. Managing companies’ vehicle fleets is often considered non-core operations which have led to the creation of the operational vehicle leasing industry. It means that the leasi

The relationship between state and civil society organisations is a well studied area within the field of political science in the Swedish contemporary political context. While the focus has previously largely been on producer-organisations and their politically privileged position, the resent additional focus has been on the civil society organisation defined by social-movements-oriented organisa

Background: The role of glycemic index (GI) in appetite and body-weight regulation is still not clear. Objective: The objective of the study was to investigate the long-term effects of a low-fat, high-carbohydrate diet with either low glycemic index (LGI) or high glycemic index (HGI) on ad libitum energy intake, body weight, and composition, as well as on risk factors for type 2 diabetes and isc

We review the ecology and distributions of the chafers Liocola marmorata (F.), Gnorimus nobilis (L.) and Gnorimus variabilis (L.) in Sweden based on museum and several large private collections. These species live in hollow deciduous trees, in Sweden especially in oaks. The former and recently documented localities are shown on maps. More than 100 years ago, all the species as well as their habita

Background: Knee injuries in football are common regardless of age, gender or playing level, but adolescent females seem to have the highest risk. The consequences after severe knee injury, for example anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, are well-known, but less is known about knee injury prevention. We have designed a cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the effect of a warm
