The upcoming implementation of the ReFuelEU Aviation Initiative presents both challenges and opportunities for the European aviation sector. Starting January 2025, the EU’s aviation fuel mix must include at least 2% Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), leading to higher operating costs for airlines due to SAF’s higher price than fossil kerosene. Additionally, the entire fuel supply chain will need to
Böcker och läsning är ett centralt motiv i berättelsen om Jane Eyre (1847), vilket på många sätt bidrar till framställningen av karaktärisering, världsbygge och narrativets framfart. Det finns särskilt samband mellan framställningen av böcker och läsning och framställningen av makt och maktdynamiker i Jane Eyre. Tidigare forskning om böcker och läsepraktiker i Jane Eyre har fokuserat på den allusiBooks and reading are a central motif within the narrative of Jane Eyre (1847) by Charlotte Brontë and contributes in many ways to the depiction of characterisation, world-building, and the progression of the narrative. In particular, there are correlations between the depiction of books and reading and the depiction of power and power dynamics in Jane Eyre. Previous research into books and readin
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a prevalent psychiatric condition and poses a significant burden on public health. The underlying causes and mechanisms of depression remain poorly understood. There is a growing body of evidence linking microRNAs (miRNAs) to major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the causal relationship between miRNAs and MDD remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate t
The Iberian Lynx (Lynx pardinus) faces imminent endangerment due to climate change resulting in the declining population of its primary prey, the European Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). With ongoing environmental shifts, this threat intensifies, heightening the risk of extinction for the species. The aim of this study was to explore a potential conservation strategy; the possibility of relocating
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of sustainable packaging for cosmetics on consumers within Europe. Methodology: Literature Review, Case Studies, Online Survey Findings: The research conducted exemplifies that sustainable packaging of cosmetic products impacts European consumers’ perception of brand image and influences purchasing decisions. Four key factors from the
Tropical rainforests cover large parts of the Democratic Republic of Congo. In light of recent surges in deforestation in the country, protected areas are a decisive component of the national conservation strategy. Intended to preserve ecosystems, the way in which these areas are organized can have vital implications for people who reside within them through the changes they cause to environmental
Traditionell biologisk näringsavskiljning inom avloppsvattenrening, såsom denitrifikation och biologisk fosforavskiljning (EBPR), kräver tillgång på lättnedbrytbart kol för att bra reningsgrad ska uppnås. Dock är en stor andel av kolet i det inkommande avloppsvattnet partikulärt och måste hydrolyseras innan det blir tillgängligt för bakterierna i den biologiska reningen. Flera studier har studeratTraditional biological nutrient removal (BNR) processes in wastewater treatment require access to easily biodegradable carbon in order to achieve sufficient removal. However, a lot of the carbon in the influent wastewater is not directly available for BNR bacteria but need to undergo hydrolysis first. Several studies have investigated the possibility to produce an internal carbon source from the g
The aim of the project was to develop a methodology for the chromatographic analysis able to identify the key odorants in meaty food products. The approach was based on the analysis of an already in market product and the theoretical background of the meaty flavors sensorially. Firstly, a custom-made flavor was created for the experiments covering as much as possible a broad area of compounds prec
The axiom of transitivity states that if a person prefers option A to B and B to C, he must also prefer A to C. This simple axiom is often seen as one of the pillars of rational choice, but whether it should be has created a divide in the research community. Some state that there cannot be rational choice or utility without transitivity and that agents who present intransitive preferences allow th
Denaturation mapping is a powerful and fast method for optically analyzing DNA molecules.It can be used to characterize DNA molecules on a scale of a few hundred base pairs which is sufficient for applications. Denaturation mapping requires a sufficiently high optical resolution of the imaging system used, which typically translates to an expensive, bulky microscope. For point-of-care testing or u
Stakeholders’ participation has been recognized as a pillar for a transition toward a more sustainable society. However, there is little empirical evidence concerning the viability of participation mechanisms at large scale. This research analyzes a popular referendum process in Switzerland against a law that would have been a step toward a low-carbon society in the Canton of Fribourg. Aiming to i
Attention to the role of religious NGOs (RNGOs) in international arenas has grown in the past decade. This study explored the role of values in the policies of RNGOs involved in humanitarian aid. It sought to compare the values of RNGOs with varying levels of involvement with the Steering Committee for Humanitarian Response (SCHR) in order to determine if values may be an issue inhibiting cooperat
The upcoming changes in the demographic structure will put pressure on the healthcare system in Skåne. Tax financed hospitals with more beds, doctors, nurses and other personnel will not be the solution to cope with the upcoming demands. Increasing healthcare productivity is one way, where digital healthcare is a potential part of the solution. One of the major limitations of the digital healthcar
Today’s work environment is currently undergoing radical changes and although the aware-ness of social collaboration is growing within organizations, they still struggle with the digital transformation and thereby with the integration of Enterprise Social Network (ESN). Our study aims to investigate the role of ESN within the todays’ organizations. Specifically, it intends to build on previous res
The eminent dilemma around the relationship between the increasing world population, the need of new fuel sources and environment issues has raised great awareness in the last decades. The European Parliament has set common goals such as the reduction of the greenhouse gases by 20 % by the year of 2020, followed by the requirement of at least 10 % of the fuel has to be biofuel. An adjacent issue i
Resilience, the ability to withstand or adapt to altered conditions, gets more important as the grave effects of climate change intensify. Individuals’ capacities to respond to disasters are strongly connected to their social capital (e.g. relationships and networks). The aim of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of this connection at a neighborhood level. In the first part of this p
By the end of the 1960s there was a growing environmental concern all around the globe. As a part of an answer to this challenge the need was recognized for a reorientation of the education processes towards developing knowledge, attitudes and skills for resolving the issues. This was the birth of the concept of Environmental Education (EE). However, this notion is far from being static as it went
Positive aspects of fathers’ involvement in parenting are broadly recognized, but challenges faced by fathers are often neglected and postpartum depression (PPD) is still mainly considered as a problem of mothers. Yet, new evidence suggests a similar prevalence of about 10 % in fathers and mothers. The present study investigated paternal PPD, its character and its links to attachment styles, paren
