This paper presents a novel framework comprising analytical, hydrological, and remote sensing techniques to separate the impacts of climate variation and regional human activities on streamflow changes in the Karkheh River basin (KRB) of western Iran. To investigate the type of streamflow changes, the recently developed DBEST algorithm was used to provide a better view of the underlying reasons. T
Galactic Archaeology is the study of the formation and evolution of the Milky Way through the properties of stars and stellar populations. The combination of stellar ages, chemical compositions, positions, and velocities can reveal the history of star formation and chemical enrichment in different regions of the Galaxy. A large number of stellar spectroscopic, photometric, and astrometric surveys
Background: Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment for self-harm and emotion regulation difficulties. A modified version, DBT-Skills System (DBT-SS), has been developed in the USA for individuals with cognitive difficulties. The present study is a pilot study, testing the DBT-SS in a Swedish context.Methods: Six participants were treated with individual therapy and group
Software systems are increasingly depending on data, particularly with the rising use of machine learning, and developers are looking for new sources of data. Open Data Ecosystems (ODE) is an emerging concept for data sharing under public licenses in software ecosystems, similar to Open Source Software (OSS). It has certain similarities to Open Government Data (OGD), where public agencies share da
This article examines the continuities and discontinuities in the historical trajectory of the commercialisation of places. It outlines a performative approach to understanding how the process of turning cities into com- mercial products changes in time and space. Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, is used as an illustrative example of the spatio-temporal trajec- tory of commercialisation during th
I detta temanummer av Förvaltningsrättslig tidskrift (FT) har vi samlat bidrag utifrån temat FPL 50 år – Förvaltningsprocessen igår, idag och imorgon. Bidragen bygger på anföranden som presenterades vid en konferens med samma titel, som hölls den 3 mars 2021, med FT och Juridicum, Stockholms universitet som arrangörer.
Under coronapandemin har åtgärderna mot smittspridning ofta diskuterats utifrån den så kallade proportionalitetsprincipen. Denna juridiska princip, som kan verka okontroversiell, innebär att myndigheternas åtgärder ska vara nödvändiga och lämpliga för att nå ett visst mål och att fördelarna med åtgärderna ska uppväga nackdelarna. Att ”lagom är bäst” uppfattas ju ofta som något typiskt svenskt, och
ObjectiveTo report the outcomes of redo fenestrated and/or branched endovascular aortic repair (F/BEVAR in FEVAR) to rescue previous failed FEVAR.MethodsRetrospective review of all consecutive patients undergoing F/BEVAR in FEVAR at eight aortic centres including pre-, intra-, and post-operative data according to a pre-established protocol. Follow up consisted of at least yearly computed tomograph
This paper explores the US antitrust investigation into commitment by Ford, Honda, BMW and Volkswagen to comply with emission standards set out by the state of California from an EU perspective. It takes a look at the DOJ’s investigation and explores how such a case would be handled under the EU’s legal framework. First, it briefly provides the background of the U.S. case, including some politica
Mechanical stress influences cell- and tissue-scale processes across all kingdoms. It remains challenging to delineate how mechanical stress, originating at these different length scales, impacts cell and tissue form. We combine growth tracking of cells, quantitative image analysis, as well as molecular and mechanical perturbations to address this problem in pavement cells of Arabidopsis thaliana
Background: The occurrence of misattributed paternity has consequences throughout society with implications ranging from inheritance and royal succession to transplantation. However, its frequency in Sweden is unknown. Objective: To estimate the contemporary frequency of misattributed paternity in Sweden. Methods: The study was based on nationwide ABO blood group data and a nationwide register of
The chapter provides a brief overview of the development of the broadcasting sector in Egypt, demonstrating the significance of this sector in promoting the ideologies and policies of Egypt’s successive regimes, beginning with Nasser’s through al-Sisi’s governments. Although the sector was subjected to liberalization, under Mubarak’s rule, state television still dominated the broadcasting sector a
This chapter provides an overview of LGBTQ+ organizations and movements in the Arabic-speaking world, as well as central themes and debates, including different strategies taken in translating terminology and developing a vocabulary to speak about nonnormative sex, gender, and identification in Arabic. Treating translation as performance, emphasizing the political impact of terminology, and viewin
This article compares the Swedish government’s legal practices to secure protection for its trade and shipping with the legal strategies for protection which circulated among sailors and consuls along the Swedish trade route to the Mediterranean in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. One major threat to Swedish commercial interests at the time were the ‘Barbary corsairs’, and the challenges wh
