Investigations over two major tectonic zones in the Hallandsås Horst, Southern Sweden were carried out in connection with a railway tunnelling project. A combination of resistivity imaging, core drilling and geophysical logging was found to provide a good overview of the variation in rock quality and detailed information on the engineering geological characteristics and genesis of the strata. Resi

Eutrophication is one of the most serious global threats to coastal areas. One effect of eutrophication is seasonal macroalgal blooms. As a consequence, large amounts of beach-cast algae are today reported from coastal areas worldwide. In this study, we analyze nonmarket benefits by capturing local residents' Willingness To Pay (WTP) for an environmental program to regularly remove and utilize beaEutrophication is one of the most serious global threats to coastal areas.

Popular science The eddy-covariance (EC) method is one of the most important methods to measure gas and energy fluxes between biosphere and atmosphere at ecosystem level. This method was applied above the floor of a boreal forest in Norunda, central Sweden, at 1.5 m height. The objective was to measure the energy and carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes from the soil and the understory vegetation to the at

Kv. Renen 13 i centrala Varberg är sedan tidigare känt som kraftigt förorenat. På fastigheten har det från slutet av 1800-talet fram till 2003 funnits verksamheter i form av textilindustri som avlösts av finmekanisk verkstadsindustri. Det är framförallt den sistnämnda verksamheten som har orsakat rådande situation med höga halter klorerade lösningsmedel, trikloreten (TCE) och 1,1,1-trikoletan (TCAAn old industry estate, Kv. Renen 13, is located in central Varberg, southwest Sweden, and is known from previous investigations as highly polluted. Pollution started in the late 19th century with textile manufacturing, and in the 1960´s changed into a precision mechanics industry using chlorinated solvents, primary trichloroethene (TCE) and 1,1,1-trichloroethane (TCA), as well as cyanide and meta

Background: Opioid substitution treatment (OST) populations are aging and have increased mortality and somatic morbidity compared to general populations internationally. While OST patients have poor self-rated physical health and unmet healthcare needs, documented healthcare utilization has been sparsely investigated. The aim of this study was to assess registered healthcare utilization for somati
