As Charles Darwin’s theory of natural selection, specific behavioural and physical adaptations that are the outcome of natural selection.

The data includes information on pre-immigration occupation and on up to four occupations in Sweden. The empirical analysis supports a U-shaped pattern of occupational mobility from home country to host country which is in line with the theory of imperfect transferability of skills

Over recent decades, use of insecticides to protect plants from pests and harmful insects have increased manyfold. Neonicotinoid insecticides, such as Imidacloprid (IMI) acts as partial agonists on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors which are widely present in both the central and peripheral nervous system of insects. Pollinators like Eristalis tenax are frequently exposed to these pesticides but h
A roof box is an essential part of a skiing trip by car, but many users find it frustrating and time consuming to use. Interviews with users showed that they find it difficult to load and unload the roof box, since it is too high up for most people.

Lantmännen Cerealia i Malmö utför provbak av bröd som ett led i deras kvalitetskontroll av ett malet mjöl. Nuvarande metod med provbakning av bröd på Lantmännen innehåller ister. Det är en kvarleva från förr då det var ett vanligt fett att använda till bakning. Det stämmer dock dåligt överens med hur det ser ut i bagerierna som idag använder framförallt rapsolja som fett i bakningen. Kvalitetsavde

Efforts to reduce energy consumption in buildings have increased with the pending impact of climate change. Heat losses through airing behaviours remain a largely unknown factor due to the variety of reasons for opening a window, making generalization difficult. Currently, an estimation of 4 kWh/m2 heated area for airing heat loss is assumed in Sweden. Additionally, the resulting airflow from open
This thesis explores the heterologous expression of six fungal enzymes with potential polyurethane (PUR) degrading activity in two strains of the filamentous fungus Aspergillus oryzae: the standard Ory6 and a knock-out variant with disrupted transcription factors to potentially reduce native protease activity. Each enzyme was expressed in three gene formats: a native version (including any introns

Sea ice is strongly impacted by global warming, and its decline further alters the global climate. Climate models are important tools for examining those future sea ice changes and the interaction of sea ice with other Earth system components such as the atmosphere and the ocean. Typically, these components are simulated with separate codes. The interaction between these components is typically mo
