Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Geoelektriska mätningar med resistivitet och inducerad polarisation (IP) har traditionellt använts för att bland annat hitta berggrundsytor, kartera sprickighet och bedöma deponiers utbredning. Metoden utgår från olika materials olika elektriska egenskaper. I denna studie undersöktes möjligheten att hitta grundvattennivåerna i deponier med denna metod. Vattnet i There is a problem with leachate leakagein the Flishult landfill outside the town of Vetlanda . This means that water that has been in contact with the deposited material is likely to lead contaminants into the surrounding groundwater, causing an environmental impact on the surroundings. This problem is not unique to the Flishult landfill but can be found in many places where there are, e.g., wast

Sökandet efter nedslagskratrar har fått mycket uppmärksamhet sedan 1960 talet och flertalet kratrar över hela jorden har bekräftats sedan dess. Likaså har många strukturer i berggrunden utan känt ursprung uppmärksammats och föreslagits som möjliga nedslagsstrukturer. I Sverige finns ungefär 40 föreslagna potentiella nedslagskratrar. I denna kandidatuppsats studeras elva av dessa; Björkö, Vara, UndThe search of impact craters have recieved a lot of attention since the 1960s and many impact craters on various places on Earth have been recogniced since then. Additionally, many structures in the bedrock without known origin have also recieved attention and been suggested as possible impact structures. In Sweden there are approximately 40 suggested potential impact craters. In this bachelor the

Background: Children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are generally more sedentary and engage less in physical activity (PA) than their peers.
