Alvars are globally rare habitats with rich and distinctive vegetation-communities. Alvars are found on limestone bedrock which is also subject to quarrying for cement production. The increasing global need for cement results in either expanding existing quarries or the opening of new ones. Current legislation requires the restoration of limestone quarries after they are closed for quarrying and t

A control-group read a neutral text. The texts were followed by the self-assessment test Tromsö Social Intellige
Biometric technologies, such as facial and fingerprint recognition, have become widely adopted for identity verification in various applications. Palm biometrics, utilizing the unique patterns of the human palm, has gained significant attention for its accuracy and security. This thesis aims to investigate and propose a comprehensive design for certain as- pects of a contactless palm print recogniImproving Contactless Palm Print Recognition Technology Biometric technologies, such as facial and fingerprint recognition, have become widely used for identity verification in various applications. An- other promising biometric solution is palm biometrics, which utilizes the unique patterns found on the human palm for accurate and secure iden- tification. This thesis focuses on investigating and
In Deuteronomy the triad of gēr (sojourner), yātôm (the fatherless) and ‘almānâ (widow) is frequently cited. In my essay I explore the reason for its recurrence and come to the conclusion that the author of Deuteronomy attached the group gēr with the almānâ and yātôm – two grups that were traditionally regarded as vulnerable in Ancient Near Eastern societies. My explanation to the frequent mention
The political participation of women is an important indicator of the degree of gender equality in certain country.

By using the three mentioned theories it’s made possible to understand the court’s development from a political and
De svenska företagen har traditionellt sett drabbats av en hög skattesats som uttagits på en smal skattebas. Trots den höga skattesatsen har vår effektiva skatt varit betydligt lägre, tack vare omfattande reserveringsmöjligheter. Genom den omfattande skattereformen 1990 sänktes skattesatsen och antalet reserveringsmöjligheter minskade. Skatteutjämningsreserven (surven) användes endast under ett få
Through discourse analysis I investigate how the Swedish liberal party, Folkpartiet, constructs two opposing identities in their discourse of alienation (in Swedish utanförskap). I draw from Torben Bech Dyrbergs theory on how identities are constructed through the logics of difference and equivalence (1997). Laclau and Mouffe are the main inspirations for analyzing the organization of the discours
The development of cognitive robots in ROS still lacks the support of some key components: a knowledge integration framework and a framework for autonomous mission execution. In this research chapter, we will discuss our skill-based platform SkiROS, that was developed on top of ROS in order to organize robot knowledge and its behavior. We will show how SkiROS offers the possibility to integrate di

The paper investigates the phenomenon of double exploitation in ’passionate work’, where workers are exploiting themselves in their dedication to work and colleagues, simultaneously as being exposed to exploitation by employers and the industry at large. The study is based on an analysis of semi-structured interviews with game developers employed in the Swedish digital games industry.

This is a thesis exploring and comparing four different GIS-based viewscape analysis methods, as well as delving into GIS-based soundscape both in practice and theory. The use of these methods leads to a discussion about their utility for gaining new knowledge about past landscapes and possibilities to create phenomenological studies using GIS-based software. The case study is the old Bosebo churc
