We measured H2O and CO2 fluxes at a boreal forest floor using eddy covariance (EC) and chamber methods. Maximum evapotranspiration measured with EC ranged from 1.5 to 2.0 mmol m(-2) s(-1) while chamber estimates depended substantially on the location and the vegetation inside the chamber. The daytime net CO2 exchange measured with EC (0-2 mu mol m(-2) s(-1)) was of the same order as measured with
In this paper, we describe the results from an experimental campaign, focused on vertical upward flame spread over a charring material. First, for validation purposes of simulation tools, we report on cone calorimeter results for square (9.8 cm x 9.8 cm), 1.65 cm thick, medium density fibre samples, mounted horizontally. Temperature is shown at the surface and at different depths. The mass of the
BACKGROUND: Knee rotation plays an important part in knee kinematics during weight-bearing activities. An external device for measuring knee rotation (the Rottometer) has previously been evaluated for validity by simultaneous measurements of skeletal movements with Roentgen Stereometric Analysis (RSA). The aim of this study was to investigate the reliability of the device. METHOD: The within-day

Globaliseringen av kulturen, ekonomin och politiken leder till gränsöverskridande interaktioner för många aktörer mellan regioner och länder. I takt med att kommunikationen blir allt snabbare och når allt fler platser ökar kontakten mellan människor och ger ögonblickligen information om händelser från alla jordens hörn. Nya innovationer och medicinska genombrott stärker livskvaliteten och ökar livThe globalization of culture, economy and politics leads to cross-border interactions of actors across regions and countries. As communication gets faster and reaching more places contact between people is increasing and information on events from every corner of the world is accessible. New innovations and medical breakthroughs will strengthen the quality of life and increase life expectancy for
Barn som upplever våld i hemmet har innan 2021 inte haft ett straffrättsligt skydd i svensk lag. Det finns studier som visar att var tionde barn i Sverige någon gång har upplevt våld mellan närstående. Situationen där vuxna utövar våld i vad som ska vara barnets tryggaste zon, kan ge förödande konsekvenser, både fysiskt som psykiskt. Den 14 juni 2018 beslutade regeringen att tillsätta en särskildBefore 2021, children who experience violence in their homes have not had criminal protection in Swedish law. There are studies that show that every tenth child in Sweden has ever experienced violence between relatives. The situation where adults use violence, in what should be the child's safest zone, can have devastating consequences, both physically and mentally. On 14 June 2018, the govern
Molasses is a low value by-product from sugar production that is usually used for animal feed, bioethanol fermentation, and yeast growth substrate. Even though it is a by-product and most of the sugar have been taken out the molasses still contains a fair amount of sugar that can be used for production of HMF, a biobased platform chemical with many areas of application, for example as a feedstock
In times of political divisiveness, Corporate Political Advocacy (CPA) has emerged as a commonly used communication strategy whereby brands voice support for socio-political issues. Despite its increasing prominence, research of CPA in the field of strategic communication is scarce. Therefore, this qualitative study examines BrewDog, a company inclined to engage in conversations that hold strategi
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka psykologers attityd och kunskap avseende transpersoner och icke-binära, samt hur det påverkar bemötande. Med utgångspunkt i binäritet och icke-binäritet studerades detta utifrån ett socialpsykologiskt perspektiv med integrering av genusvetenskaplig teori. Studien var en mixed methods design då den hade både en kvantitativ samt kvalitativ datainsamlings- ocThe aim of this study was to examine the attitude and knowledge of psychologists in regard to transgender and non-binary people, and how it affects their treatment. Based on gender binary and non-binary this was investigated by integrating the main perspective of social psychology with gender studies. This study was a mixed methods design, producing and analyzing both quantitative and qualitative
As the threat from the climate crisis becomes ever more apparent and shows few signs of stopping alternative development models become interesting. Driven by an interest of examining such alternative solutions, this paper studies degrowth due to it being a challenging alternative to currently applied growth-based models of development that see progress as linked to economic growth. This paper exam
The aim of this study was to analyze how young criminals are described and portrayed in Swedish news reporting and to identify discourses. We chose to analyze 19 different articles from four different Swedish newspapers. These newspapers were two morning papers and two evening papers. The criterias for our range of articles were that they needed to contain a description of crime and that the perso
COVID-19 was declared a world-wide pandemic in 2020, consequently affecting societies all around the globe. This thesis investigates one of these effects, namely how the pandemic affected occupant loads in office buildings and its subsequent effect on fire evacuation. Occupant load is one of many important factors when designing a building in regard to its fire safety, as it is a key component in
In addition to its complex structure, the cerebral cortex has multiple functions exclusive to humans. Unfortunately, it also plays a crucial role in multiple neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. Although we know very little about human-specific gene regulatory mechanisms during brain development, non-coding RNAs are evolutionarily non-conserved, evolve faster, and are highly expressed in
I 6 kap 2 a § FB stadgas att barnets bästa ska vara avgörande för alla beslut kring vårdnad, boende och umgänge. I barnkonventionen artikel 3 stadgas att ett barnperspektiv ska tillämpas i alla beslut som rör barn. Reglerna om barnets bästa är allmänt hållna för att kunna möjliggöra en individuell bedömning i varje enskilt fall. Ansvaret för att barnets bästa beaktas hamnar alltså slutligen hos doChapter 6 § 2 a in the Parental Code stipulates that the best interest of the child should be a primary consideration in all decisions concerning custody, residence and contact. Article 3 in the Children’s Convention stipulates that the perspective of a child should be applied on all decisions concering children. The legal rules of the best interest of the child have been kept very general to enab
The present communication reviews reasons to perform rescreening of chlamydia-infected persons. It brings up difficulties to differentiate between relapse and reinfection. Studies on follow-up of chlamydia-positive cases after therapy are reviewed. It also highlights reasons for therapeutic failure, like compliance, pharmacological factors, including poor bioavailability, wrong dose regimens, lack
Abstract in Undetermined BACKGROUND: The absence of all Kell blood group antigens (K0 phenotype) is very rare. K0 persons, however, can produce clinically significant anti-Ku (K5) after transfusion and/or pregnancy and require K0 blood for transfusion. Ten alleles giving rise to the K0 phenotype have been reported: different populations were studied although none from Scandinavia. STUDY DESIGN AND
Human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) is a major cause of human cancer. Effective prophylactic vaccines are based on type-specific neutralizing antibodies. A major neutralizing epitope has been defined by the monoclonal antibody H16.V5. To investigate the importance of this epitope for overall immunogenicity of HPV-16, HPV-16 virus-like particles devoid of the H16.V5 epitope were engineered by sit
