Salinisation is a global issue which leads to desertification and soil degradation and exposure to salt is also known to inhibit microbial activity and plant growth. This study was conducted to determine the influence of salinity on microbial activity of a non- saline soil. By using Salt Induced Community Tolerance (SICT) concept I found that microbial community tolerance to salt can be induced in
Due to a globalized market place, risk management has grown in importance and become a central part of firms’ corporate strategies. The incentives for engaging in risk reducing activities revolve around reduced agency costs and exploitation of financial advantages. According to the precautionary motive for holding cash, firms must ensure stable and secure access to capital for future investments.

[Translated title] Supervisor: Mikael Sandgren Assessor: Elizabeth Martinell Barfoed The aim for this study was to examine social worker’s individual experiences on which of their personal needs they feel are being fulfilled by their w
The aim of this study was to reiterate and analyze children’s stories about what it was like to grow up with a parent in prison. We intended to interpret the individuals’ childhood experiences and memories. We have limited the respondents to people who grew up with a parent in prison. These individuals were during the essay adults, recounting stories from their childhood. An incarceration does not
Mönsterseparation är en neural mekanism ansvarig för att skapa specifika, ickeöverlappande, minnesspår för stimuli som påminner om varandra. Trots denna mekanism, händer det att minnen överlappar och detta skapar ofta interferens i samband med att vi försöker plocka fram ett specifikt minne. För att reducera interferens vid framplockning aktiveras en annan mekanism, nämligen inhibition av relateraPattern separation is a neural mechanism for creating distinct, non-overlapping, memory traces for similar inputs. Despite this, memories may overlap, and this often produces interference during retrieval of a particular target memory. To reduce interference during selective retrieval another mechanism comes into play, namely inhibition of related, competing memories. This inhibition is believed t
Frågeställningen i detta arbete rör i vilket omfång det allmännas vård och omsorg av beslutsoförmögna individer kan sägas utföras med grund i lag eller om dessa ingrepp i huvudsak är olagliga. Utgångspunkten tas i regeringsformen 2 kap 6 § 1 (RF) var man, sammanfattningsvis, kan säga att ett ingrepp, i betydelsen ett påtvingat kroppsligt ingrepp, är grundlagsstridigt. För att ett kroppsligt ingrepDaily, doctors, and other health care personal throughout Sweden are, probably unknowingly, faced with, the legally difficult task of caring for mentally incompetent patients. This essay seeks out to analyze, to which legal extent, a provider of public healthcare has the actual legal right to provide medical care for mentally incompetent persons when theese persons are not protesting nor able to g
The Swedish government started its initiative for electronic services (e-services) in 2005 to create the infrastructure for information management, optimize the government, and potentially save tax money. The technological paradigm Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) was adopted to facilitate the Swedish government's initiative. The purpose of SOA is to increase efficiency for developing e-ser
Klimatförändringarna påverkar vår värld och det behövs ett mer hållbart samhälle. Flygindustrin är i behov av förändring, men flygmotorer är mycket komplexa och tar tid att utveckla. Termoakustiska instabiliteter har kraften att förstöra en motor, men också att minska miljöpåverkan. Samtidigt möjliggör ökad beräkningskraft i moderna datorkluster att detaljerade simuleringar kan utföras för att stuClimate change is affecting our world and a more sustainable society is needed. The aviation industry is in need of change but aero-engines are very complex and take time to develop. Thermoacoustic instabilities have the power to destroy an engine, but also to reduce the environmental impact. At the same time, increasing computational power allows detailed simulations to be executed in order to st
This thesis examines the challenges that women human rights defenders (WHRDs) in Bangladesh are experiencing in a period of shrinking civic space. It further focuses on how perceptions guide their chosen strategies. Applying political opportunity theory, drawing from social movements research, it explores the structural changes in the political system and how it impacts civil society action. Thus,
The purpose of this thesis is to study how different political orientations in Swedish foreign security policy have been legitimized. After having pursued a policy of neutrality and non-alignment for 200 years, Sweden made a decision to apply for membership in the military alliance NATO. The investigated time periods are 2014 and 2022, during which Sweden has chosen completely different strategies
Hypertyreos är en sköldkörtelsjukdom där sköldkörteln är överaktiv och producerar för mycket hormoner. Tillståndet kan orsaka symptom som är jobbiga att leva med i vardagen, till exempel hjärtklappning, svettningar, yrsel och illamående. En utav de behandlingar som används mot hypertyreos är radiojodbehandling. Vid radiojodbehandling utnyttjar man sköldkörtelns egenskap att absorbera jod från den Aim: The aim was to estimate the uncertainty of various factors, influencing the radioiodine uptake (RAIU) at clinical measurements of hyperthyroid patients. Furthermore, to evaluate the estimation of thyroid volume from nuclear medicine scintigraphic images. Another aim was to investigate in what extent these uncertainties may influence the eventual therapeutic radioiodine activity, and thereby t
During the winter smog season, Punjab experiences some of the world’s most hazardous air quality levels, largely driven by the open-field burning of agricultural residue. In response, the provincial government introduced a 60 percent subsidy for Super Seeders — tractor-mounted implements that mulch crop residue in-field, eliminating the need for burning. This thesis presents a formative, farmer-ce
På botten i en av Skånes största dricksvattensjöar gömmer sig gamla synder från förr. På sommaren kommer de till ytan och orsakar problem med vattnets kvalité och gör sjön ovälkomnande grön. I denna studie går vi till botten av problemet med förhöjda näringshalter i Vombsjön. Sedan en lång tid tillbaka har orenat avloppsvatten och vatten från jordbruksmark runnit in i Vombsjön. Vattnet har innIn this study, the internal load of phosphorus in Lake Vomb is explored. Years of external inputs from untreated sewage and agricultural runoff have built up tonnes of phosphorus in the lake sediment, periodically released causing HABs and impairing water quality. The aim of this study is to investigate how the internal load varies over a year and to explore correlations between internal loading,

I denna uppsats diskuteras det nya lagförslaget om beskattning av carried inte-rest. Carried interest utgörs av den asymmetriska vinstfördelningen som till-faller fondförvaltaren för både investerat kapital och för utfört arbete i de bo-lag som investeringarna sker i. Den föreslagna regleringen innebär att beskattning ska ske enligt de så kallade 3:12-reglerna, vilket i korthet innebär att carriThis thesis discusses the new legislative proposal concerning the taxation of carried interest. Carried interest refers to the asymmetric distribution of profits allocated to the fund manager, partly for invested capital and partly for work performed in the companies in which investments are made. The proposed regulation stipulates that taxation shall be carried out in accord-ance with the so-ca
The blogosphere recently experiences an increasing attention by PR practice which engages in blogger relations to target bloggers as influential online gate-keepers. Bloggers thereby are given numerous possibilities to make use of their authenticity and credibility, and endorse brands through collaborations with PR. This study explores the established discipline of blogger relations in German PR a
Principen om avtalsfrihet är en sedan länge befäst princip som utgör en huvudregel inom den allmänna avtalsrätten. Principen vinner starkt stöd från liberalistiskt håll och fick ett uppsving under den liberalistiska eran medan det från socialistiskt håll sedermera väckts en oro kring att sämre ställda parter kan tänkas hamna i kläm av en absolut avtalsfrihet. Det har nu visat sig att det råder oliThe freedom of contract-principle has been a standard rule within the general contract law for quite some time. The principle was strongly supported by the liberals’ point of view and its importance grew during the liberalistic era. In contrast, socialists were concerned that weaker parties would come to be mistreated by an absolute form of freedom of contract. It is now known that the parties of
In this work aMatlab model of a simplified LTE system has been implemented. The PUSCH and PDSCH signal chains has been used for reception and transmission of data and DM-RS symbols are used as pilots. Moreover, the model supports communication and interference between multiple users and base station antennas. The wireless channels are modeled as multi-path Rayleigh fading and are continuous in tim
