Since 1750, land-use change and fossil fuel combustion has led to a 46% increase in the atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations, causing global warming with substantial societal consequences. The Paris Agreement aims to limit global temperature increases to well below 2C above preindustrial levels. Increasing levels of CO2 and other greenhouse gases (GHGs), such as methane (CH4) and nitrou
Over 840 M ha of arable land is affected by salinization, and the area is predicted to increase due to global change. Assessments of the status of the microbial community in saline soils have frequently been based on microbial biomass estimates, which might not accurately reflect microbial process rates in soil. Moreover, assessments of how the relative importance of major decomposer groups bacter
Transgender persons experience a disproportionate representation in adverse mental health conditions globally. In Sweden there are tangible efforts to improving mental healthcare overall, but as a minority population, transgender persons still struggle with meeting their mental healthcare needs. While social factors such as stigma and discrimination act as catalysts for this burden, there is an ab
Sveriges befolkning blir allt mer mångkulturell, vilket framgår av att den utlandsfödda befolkningen utgjorde mer än 20% av Sveriges befolkning år 2024, enligt Statistikmyndigheten. Men samtidigt som tillströmningen av migranter fortsätter, förändras inte nödvändigtvis politik och normer i samma takt. I synnerhet finns det en skillnad mellan hur migranter kanske föredrar att använda sina namn och Sweden’s population is becoming increasingly multicultural as evident from the foreign population reaching over 20% as of 2024, according to the National Statistics Agency Statistikmyndigheten. Yet even as the influx of migrants continues, changes in policies and norms do not necessarily change at the same pace. In particular, there is a difference between how migrants might prefer to use their na
Human rights are the basis by which the dignity of the human being is guaranteed. This is especially important in the relationship between persons and governments, who on the one hand have great power in form of legislation over these persons, but on the other hand must ensure the protection of human rights. A problem may arise when these two opposing forces of the State collide,1 as the individua
This qualitative study is examining the reasons behind the mass migration of Bulgarian citizens from Stolipinovo to Germany and the city of Duisburg in particular. The research is conducted using ethnographic approach together with carrying out interviews with the focus group – EU migrants from that area. It further examines how this process is facilitated and what kind of organisations stay behin
I en värld där klimathot och resursbrist har växt fram till ett allt större problem på världsledarnas agenda har vikten av hållbar utveckling identifierats som en nyckelfråga i vägen mot en bättre framtid. En metod för detta är industriell symbios, som innebär att olika företag och organisationer gemensamt utnyttjar energi, nyttigheter, material eller service, för att på ett innovativt sätt skapa
Att länder anklagas för att bedriva otillåten underrättelseverksamhet under diplomatisk täckmantel är ett återkommande fenomen genom historien. Diplomati och underrättelseverksamhet har en lång och sammanflätad historia. Över tid har diplomatin och underrättelsetjänsterna haft ett ömsesidigt behov av varandras verksamheter. Institutionerna har samspelat, men också agerat som konkurrenter. Parallel
Background and Aim: Artificial intelligence (AI) in mammography screening can aid cancer detection. Commercially available AI systems can assign region and exam scores based on malignancy suspicion. Despite promising suggestions, clinical implementation is limited- partly due to a lack of trust among radiologist and prospective evaluation. Inevitably, this leads to the question of how an AI system
Debt can create a significant barrier for individuals attempting to leave a criminal lifestyle, yet how debt is experienced at an individual level has remained relatively unexplored. The overall aim of this mixed-methods study was to examine how individuals attempting to leave a criminal lifestyle experience, give meaning to, and manage debt. The quantitative study was based on a total population
Nanoplastics have been proven to induce toxicity in diverse organisms, yet their effect on soil microbes like bacteria and fungi remains largely unexplored. In this paper, we used micro-engineered soil models to investigate the effect of polystyrene (PS) nanospheres on Pseudomonas putida and Coprinopsis cinerea. Specifically, we explored the effects of increasing concentrations of 60 nm carboxylat
Background: Generating parasite genomes is challenging when little of the DNA in infected host tissue is from the parasite. We used selective whole genome amplification (SWGA) to generate genomic data from wildlife samples of the avian haemosporidian Haemoproteus majoris (lineage PARUS1) and its host, the blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus). Methods: We used SWGA to amplify the parasite DNA in nine avi
The keystone species concept holds that certain members of an ecological community, despite their low abundance, exert disproportionately large effects on species diversity and composition. In microbial ecology, experimental validation of this concept has been limited because targeted removal of individual species remains technically challenging. Here, we developed a procedure to test the keystone
Residential gardens can provide pollinator habitat and thus contribute to mitigating declines of insect pollinators. To further improve gardens for pollinators, it is necessary to understand the factors and pathways leading to successful conservation interventions. We studied how the success of two common pro-pollinator interventions, garden meadows and flower plantings, were influenced by gardene
AI systems are part of our daily lives and not only science fiction. In the healthcare sector are medical AI systems used to monitor patients, compare x-rays in order to detect diseases, or to even make a diagnosis. These AI systems help healthcare providers to make the work of doctors and nurses more efficient and to ensure the best service for their patients. However, next to these benefits come
