Atmospheric mineral dust not only interacts with the climate system by scattering incoming solar radiation and affecting atmospheric photochemistry, but also contributes critical nutrients to marine and terrestrial ecosystems. In a high-resolution analysis of paleodust deposition, peat development and soil dust sources, we assess the interplay between dust deposition and bog development of the Dav
Galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) interact with the Earth’s atmosphere to produce energetic neutrons and cosmogenic radionuclides, such as 14C. The atmosphere is partially shielded from the interstellar GCR spectrum by both the geomagnetic and solar magnetic fields. Solar shielding is often expressed as the heliospheric modulation potential ϕ, which consolidates information about the strength and struct
Future Internet-of-Things (IoT) systems need to combine heterogeneous IoT components and support weak connectivity. This paper introduces ComPOS, a domain-specific language for composing IoT services into systems. ComPOS is a small language but supports powerful message mediation, using stateful reactions with nested and parallel message sequences and anonymous futures. To deal with weak connectiv
Objectives: To analyze the accumulated fees connected with root filling, permanent coronal restoration and follow-on treatment charged by Swedish dentists over a 10–11-year follow-up period. Furthermore, analyzing these fees with reference to the type of restoration, tooth group, and the root-filled teeth which survived compared to those requiring extraction. Material and Methods: In 2009, the dat
The inclusive top-quark-pair production cross section σtt¯ and its ratio to the Z-boson production cross section have been measured in proton–proton collisions at s=13.6 TeV, using 29 fb−1 of data collected in 2022 with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Using events with an opposite-charge electron-muon pair and b-tagged jets, and assuming Standard Model decays, the top-quark-pair
Using an enriched sample in a high temperature scattering cell we have determined the hyperfine structure of Te 125 in the 5 p 3 6 s 5 S 2 level of the Te I spectrum by the optical double resonance and level crossing techniques. For the magnetic dipole interaction constant a we obtain | a (5 p 3 6 s 5 S 2 Te 125 )| = 1 010.4 (1.3) MHz The spin density at the nucleus, calculated using this value, i
This study takes its starting point in the questions of whether and how theology might serve as a faith-based peacebuilding resource. Based on an exploration of the textual process towards an international ecumenical declaration on just peace in the World Council of Churches, it suggests that theology can indeed serve as such a resource and it sketches how theology can make such a contribution. Th
This thesis aims to address the limited spatial focus of existing critiques of British financial imperialism, by analysing the economic relationship between Britain and the Cape Colony,and integrating discreet sets of literature related to British imperialism and the economic history of the Cape Colony. Specifically, focus has centred on the diamond mining industry in Kimberley, which produced som
Denna studie riktar sig mot anställda som arbetar i gruppboende som innefattas av Lagen om stöd och service till vissa funktionsnedsatta (LSS). I flera sektorer inom den offentliga sektorn sker det en ökad detaljstyrning och den anställde får ett alltmer omfattande administrativt ansvar. Syftet med studien är därför att öka förståelsen för vilken betydelse styrdokument och riktlinjer har för den a
The survival and persistence of the threatened Marsh Fritillary butterfly (E. aurinia) is linked to the availability of its host plant, the Devil’s Bit (S. pratensis), which primarily inhibits calcareous grasslands. Previous research has established that mapping the distribution of S. pratensis serves as a reliable indicator for identifying the presence of E. aurinina larvae nests. In this study,
The unprecedented military and economic support provided by non-participating States to Ukraine following the Russian aggression has reignited the debate surrounding the law of neutrality. The law of neutrality, first codified in the Hague Conventions of 1907, defines the legal relationship between States involved in an international armed conflict (IAC), known as belligerents, and States not taki
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur en gruppinsats för unga flickor med högfungerande autism fungerade och upplevdes av deltagarna och deras vårdnadshavare. Gruppinsatsen bestod av en integrering av metoder hämtade ur Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), compassionfokuserad terapi (CFT), dans och yoga och avsåg att förebygga psykisk ohälsa hos deltagarna. Studien genomfördes genom ob
I juli 2014 föreslog Europakommissionen ett cirkulärt ekonomipaket som skulle bidra till att göra EU mer resurseffektivt genom att recirkulera resurser in i det ekonomiska systemet. En cirkulär ekonomi syftar till att tillvarata värdefulla naturresurser samtidigt som man motverkar behovet av att extrahera nya. Det föreslagna paketet innehöll bland annat ändringar i avfallsdirektiven, höjda återvinIn order to become more resource efficient and circulate resources back into the economic system, the European Commission adapted a circular economy package in 2014. This is in line with the idea of a circular economy. This study investigates how the legislative proposal to review recycling and other waste-related targets in the EU, which was a part of the proposed circular economy package, would
Purpose There is a need to find a quick way to assess the impacts of the growing amount of globally manufactured and emitted chemical substances. This paper evaluates the use of Quantitative Structure Activity Relationships (QSAR) for predicting environmental effects of plastic additives in Life Cycle Impact Assessment (LCIA). It also evaluates the impact on so called Characterization Factors (CF)
Since a series of economic reforms were introduced in China at the end of the 1970s, large numbers of rural people have flooded into urban areas to find employment but were excluded from the urban society in different ways. One important factor was associated with the Chinese household registration system. Even if rural migrant workers had lived and worked in the cities for years, they were not gr
