The participants in the former group

Lowering of groundwater level may cause saltwater intrusion in coastal aquifers. Since decrease in groundwater recharge rate and overpumping lower groundwater level, recharge rate and pumping rate are main factors of saltwater intrusion In the study area, the land-use has been changing since a university campus was newly constructed. Therefore, there is concern that this rapid land-use change will

The aim of this Bachelor thesis was to investigate how depression is portrayed in children's picture books regarding normality, gender and motherhood. The study was implemented using Narrative Method and is based on four picture books written in Swedish.

Two novel pseudo-Cs-symmetric heterobimetallic bissalen complexes have been synthesized, one containing chromium and cobalt and the other containing chromium and manganese. The design is based on a previously unexploited method; breaking the symmetry of an achiral meso-ligand by insertion of two different metal ions. The synthesized complexes are expected to catalyze the asymmetric ring-opening of

This report covers the process of a project that resulted in a future concept for an autonomous bike-sharing system. It started with a desire to do transportation design and to explore the future of public transit and the role of the bicycle in it. The research phase started with trying to form an understanding of the current public transportation situation for cyclists and also looking into futur

Pupil dilation is a reliable measure of cognitive load, and many studies have shown this effect in relation to various memory tasks. Interference from irrelevant memory traces encoded in the past lead to difficulty retrieving recent, sought after memory traces, and increased cognitive load. This investigation showed a significant decline in performance during buildup of interference and a signific

Hydraulic models can be used to predict the consequences of flooding events. In this project, three hydraulic models were constructed using the software HEC-RAS, and compared through a case study on Höje river catchment. The models include (i) a 1-dimensional (1D) model, where river and floodplain flow is modeled in 1D, (ii) a coupled 1D-2D model, where river flow is modeled in 1D and floodplain f

A species phenology is central to its ecology. Phenology is linked to development time and in extension size. Phenological differences can be found in both inter- and intraspecific comparisons. Sexual dimorphisms in phenology (protandry and protogyny) has been linked to sexual size dimorphism (SSD). In this study I use odonates, popular model organisms for studies of development and sexual dimorph

In this essay I have tried to study and examine how users of illegal narcotic substances reach out for help and support on Drogakuten, a sub forum on the message board Flashback forum instead of turning to the health care system.
