High-resolution paired analyses of δ13Ccarb and δ13Corg from a new drill core from Gotland, Sweden, demonstrate asynchronous positive change in the carbon isotope records during the onset of one of the major Silurian biogeochemical events known as the Mulde Event or “Big Crisis”. The detailed carbon isotope record presented here provides Δ13C (the difference between δ13Ccarb and δ13Corg) and allow

Drug-related problems in the elderly is intended to serve as a source of information and clinical support in geriatric pharmacotherapy for students as well as all health care professionals, e.g. physicians, nurses and pharmacists. Pharmacotherapy is of great importance to all mankind. Drugs are however powerful and must be handled appropriately. This is especially important for elderly patients. D

Sustainable finance, non-financial disclosures, ESG, oh my! The world of sustainable finance may seem dark and scary. But, in this episode, we introduce many key concepts through dialogue as well as discuss how sustainable finance contributes to wider sustainability objectives. The finance sector is playing an ever growing role in supporting the transition to a Paris-aligned world by incorporating

We suggest two methods for simulating from a multivariate copula in an arbitrary dimension. Although our main emphasis in this paper is on multivariate extreme value distributions, the proposed methods can be applied to any copula. The basic idea is to approximate the (unknown) density of the copula by a distribution that has a piece‐wise constant (histogram) density. This is achieved by partition

Insect olfactory receptors are routinely expressed in heterologous systems for functionalcharacterisation. It was recently discovered that the essential olfactory receptor co-receptor (Orco)of the Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Mdes), does not respond to the agonist VUAA1, whichactivates Orco in all other insects analysed to date. Here, using a mutagenesis-based approach weidentified three res

The idea that excitonic (electronic) coherences are of fundamental importance to natural photosynthesis gained popularity when slowly dephasing quantum beats (QBs) were observed in the two-dimensional electronic spectra of the Fenna–Matthews–Olson (FMO) complex at 77 K. These were assigned to superpositions of excitonic states, a controversial interpretation, as the strong chromophore–environment

Aridity and seasonality of precipitation are characteristics of the highland region in Bolivia. Groundwater becomes an important and safe source of water when surficial bodies are intermittent and affected by natural and anthropogenic contamination. Decades of exploitation of the Challapampa aquifer, combined with lack of information required to understand the groundwater circulation, represent a

Maternally inherited selfish genetic elements are common in animals [1]. Whereas host genetics and ecology are recognized as factors that may limit the incidence of these parasites [2, 3], theory suggests one further factor-interference with other selfish elements-that could affect their prevalence [4, 5]. In this paper, we show that spatial heterogeneity in the occurrence of the male-killing Wolb

2015 was a year of an unprecedented migration from the Middle East to Europe. Sweden received almost 163,000 asylum applications. The civil society, including the former state church, took a notable responsibility. In a situation where the welfare systems are increasingly strained, and both the welfare state and the majority church are re-regulated, we ask: how does this play out in local contexts

The structure and chemical state of supported Pd nanoparticles in contact with H 2 in the aqueous phase have been explored by X-ray absorption spectroscopy to better understand their surface reactivity in polar condensed media. The Pd-Pd distances at substantial H 2 pressures indicate the presence of sorbed hydrogen and point to the presence of Pd hydrides, proving that such nanoparticles are har

Whilst adults in Sweden place great importance on communicative competence in English, interest in learning other FLs and support for multilingualism are low. This is mirrored in the attitudes of pupils in compulsory and post-compulsory education, where English is a popular subject but opt-out and drop-out rates for FLs are high. Whilst international research has shown that initial enthusiasm for

This paper describes the Bárány Society Classification OverSight Committee (COSC) position on Cervical Dizziness, sometimes referred to as Cervical Vertigo. This involved an initial review by a group of experts across a broad range of fields, and then subsequent review by the Bárány Society COSC. Based upon the so far published literature, the Bárány Society COSC takes the view that the evidence s

Background: Information and communication technology (ICT) provides one solution to meet increasing demands for occupational therapy for older adults. Aims/Objectives: To examine if and how municipality-based occupational therapists (OTs) include ICT in their work, and which factors are associated with use of occupational therapy at a distance. Material and Methods: Survey study including 167 OTs.

This work presents a literature study over how additive manufacturing can be used to improve the performance of windings for traction machines when it comes to materials, loss minimization and thermal management, especially for concentrated windings. It continues to present the additive manufacturing methods most suitable for additively manufacturing windings. The lessons from manufacturing coils

The purpose of the current article is to support the investigation of linguistic relativity in second language acquisition and sketch methodological and theoretical prerequisites toward developing the domain into a full research program. We identify and discuss three theoretical-methodological components that we believe are needed to succeed in this enterprise. First, we highlight the importance o

Over the last two decades Sweden became one of the European countries with the highest levels of immigration. About the same time the country experienced a substantial boom in house prices. Since many analysts view a housing shortage as the main driver for the increase in prices it seems natural to ask if immigration has the potential to accelerate prices in the housing market. This paper analyses

In Sweden, a prevalent topic of discussion revolves around the challenges faced by immigrants when attempting to integrate into the Swedish labor market. The aim of this study was therefore to examine obstacles and opportunities that individuals with a foreign background face and how their actual identity is affected by the establishment and making a career. Employing a qualitative approach with a

I takt med att artificiell intelligens (AI) får en allt större roll inom offentlig förvaltning och rättsväsende väcks frågor om hur teknikens användning för-håller sig till grundläggande rättssäkerhetsprinciper. Denna uppsats granskar hur domstolars och myndigheters motiveringsskyldighet enligt artikel 6 i Europakonventionen påverkas när generativ AI används som stöd vid besluts-fattande i civilräAs artificial intelligence (AI) assumes an increasingly significant role in public administration and the judiciary, questions arise regarding how its use aligns with fundamental principles of legal certainty and the rule of law. This thesis examines how courts’ and public authorities’ duty to provide reasoned deci-sions under Article 6 of the European Convention is affected when generative AI is

This interview study explores how efforts to reduce the number of NEETs works and if there is a gap in the ideas of how these efforts work between NEETs and local authorities in Malmö. This study brings forth the voices of NEETs and representatives from local authorities that work with the group on a professional basis. The purpose of the study is two-folded. Primarily the purpose is to take this
