Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna studie omfattar tidsperioderna ordovicium, silur och äldsta devon. Silurperioden sträcker sig från 444 till 416 miljoner år sedan och karakteriseras av globala miljö- och klimatförändringar. Vid denna tid hade djur och växter börjat kolonisera land, land som tidigare varit ödsligt och kargt. Min studie visar att det i Skåne då redan fanns en flora bestående av priThe Silurian through earliest Devonian, between ca 444 and 412 million years ago, was characterized by significant changes in global climate and environment. At that time, plants and animals had begun to expand the colonization of previous relatively desolate terrestrial landscape. Macrofossils of land plants are very rare from this period because these early land plants lacked large and robust ti

Den svenska avloppsvattenreningsprocessen består av flera olika steg som utnyttjar mekanisk, kemisk och biologisk rening för att avlägsna så mycket av ohälsosamma ämnen och organismer som möjligt från vattenomloppet. Avloppsvattenreningsprocesserna i Sverige saknar specifika reningsmetoder för vissa typer av organiskt material, såsom läkemedelsrester. Dessa mikroföroreningar bryts enbart delvis neThe Swedish wastewater treatment processes consists of multiple steps including mechanical, chemical, and biological cleaning to remove as much of the unhealthy substances and organisms as possible from the water circulation. The wastewater treatment process in Sweden lacks specific removal methods for some types of organic material, such as pharmaceutical residues and other microcontaminants. The

Todays society is moving towards electrification. This means that more renewable energy is needed. In the southern parts of Sweden the energy consumption is far greater than the production and the electricity prices are rising. Sysav is a company that takes care of the waste and recycling. They have 16 facilities in the south of Skåne, including landfills. Sysav has a vision to contribute to the r

Background Many companies today spend more than half of their sales turnover on purchased parts and services. One dollar saved in purchasing costs contributes straight to the bottom line of the company in theory. Besides from accounting, sourcing and purchasing activities contribute to risk management and value improvement. (Van Weele, 2014) Still, many practical challenges of implementing balance

Multi-Criteria Evaluation Analysis (MCEA) is a decision making method employed to solve optimization problems that require the evaluation of a set of criteria to build an optimal decision. Where MCEA is integrated with GIS, optimization problems with spatial aspects, such as finding the best location of a facility across an area, could be solved. MCEA is implemented through different criteria dec

Background Type 1 diabetes begins with autoimmunity against pancreatic islet antigens, including insulin. The aim of the Primary Oral Insulin Trial (POInT) was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daily high-dose oral insulin to prevent the development of islet autoantibodies and diabetes. Methods In this randomised, controlled, primary prevention trial, genetic screening in seven obstetric and

The importance of colonic fermentation has been realised during recent years as it has been found to be associated with colonic health and thus the overall health of the individual. The fermentation of dietary fibre and the addition of probiotics can have positive effects on the luminal environment and the colonic microbiota. Short-chain fatty acids, formed by the fermentation of dietary fibre, ha

Popular Abstract in Swedish I min avhandling har jag studerat marina sedimentkärnor från två kustområden i SE Sverige, dels från Gåsfjärden, strax söder om Västervik i Småland, och dels från kusten utanför Karlskrona i Blekinge. Med syftet att studera hur Östersjöns kustmiljö har förändrats sedan mitten av Holocen (~5000 år sedan). Resultaten visar att kustmiljön har påverkats av flera stressfaktoIn this thesis, I used two coastal sediment sequences from SE Sweden to study how Baltic Sea coastal environment has changed since the mid-Holocene. The results show the coastal environment has been influenced by multi-stressors, such as climate change, shoreline regression and anthropogenic activities. Using the sediment sequence from Karlskrona Bay, past coastal environment between 7300 and 350

The increasingly apparent environmental problems in our surroundings necessitate a quest for sustainable development in all areas of human endeavour. Within the field of chemistry and the production of chemicals, the focus is increasingly on the development of green chemistry. This discipline aims to reduce environmental impact by replacing petrochemical raw materials with renewable feedstock and

Background: Quality of life (QOL) has become an important complementary endpoint in cancer clinical studies alongside more traditional assessments (eg, tumour response, progression-free survival, overall survival). Niraparib maintenance treatment has been shown to significantly improve progression-free survival in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. We aimed to assess whether the benefits of e

During the last decade the variation in the human genome has been mapped in fine detail. Next generation sequencing has made it possible to cheaply and rapidly aquire vast amounts of biomolecular information on large cohorts of people. This have enabled large-scale epidemiological studies to investigate the relationships between environmental and genetic factors and human biomolecular traits. It i

AbstractTransition from fossil- to bio-based economy is a critical step towards reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and climate change, and hence for achievement of sustainable communities and environment. In order to be fossil-free, the chemical and material industry is in need of carbon-neutral building blocks from renewable resources for the diverse array of products that are currently produc

Popular Abstract in Swedish Many of the energy needs in today’s modern society are fulfilled by sources based on fossil fuels, including non-domestic oil and coal. It is well known that the increase in CO2 emission is the result of human activities, mostly fossil fuel consumption. The use of such fuels is unsustainable and has led to the phenomena such as climate change, political instability in sThe gasification of biomass is a promising route to increase the share of renewable sources in the energy mix. Besides having an overall higher thermal efficiency than combustion, it also offers the possibility of producing gaseous and liquid biofuels that can be used in the transport sector. The use of biomass gasification for energy purposes can help lower the net emissions of greenhouse gases,

We present the CarbonTracker Europe High-Resolution (CTE-HR) system that estimates carbon dioxide (CO2) exchange over Europe at high resolution (0.1 × 0.2° ) and in near real time (about 2 months' latency). It includes a dynamic anthropogenic emission model, which uses easily available statistics on economic activity, energy use, and weather to generate anthropogenic emissions with dynamic time pr

Background: In luminal breast cancer, adjuvant CDK4/6 inhibitors (eg, abemaciclib) improve invasive disease-free survival. In patients with T1–2, grade 1–2 tumours, and one or two sentinel lymph node metastases, completion axillary lymph node dissection (cALND) is the only prognostic tool available that can reveal four or more nodal metastases (pN2–3), which is the only indication for adjuvant abe

Increasing nutrient concentrations (eutrophication) and water color due to dissolved organic matter (brownification) pose continuous threats to freshwater ecosystems worldwide, threatening ecosystem services like drinking water supply. Changing the increasing trends of eutrophication and brownification on our aquatic ecosystems is challenging. However, constructed wetlands could be a potential loc

The Cretaceous - Paleogene boundary (K-Pg, 66 Ma) was a time interval with dramatic changes in the Earth’s climate and the ocean environment. It was characterized by severe disruptions of marine biogeochemical cycles due to a meteorite impact during a time of active volcanism. The extinction of calcifiers, among others, influenced biogeochemical cycles and changed the conditions for carbonate depo

Popular Abstract in Swedish Dagens samhälle är mycket beroende av fordonsbränslen och kemikalier som producerats av råolja. Framtidens tillgång på råolja är oviss, det enda som är säkert är att det är en ändlig resurs. Användningen av olja bidrar dessutom till koldioxidutsläpp till atmosfären. För att säkra framtida tillförsel av energi och kemikalier till samhället och för att uppnå ett mer klimaMany scientists believe that the oil production will peak in the near future, if the peak has not already occurred. Peak oil theories and uncertain future oil deliveries have stimulated interest in alternative sources of fuel and chemicals. This interest has been enhanced by concerns about energy security and about the climate change caused by emissions of carbon dioxide. The result has been incre
