The cosmogenic radionuclides 7Be and 10Be are useful tracers for atmospheric transport studies. Combining 7Be and 10Be measurements with an atmospheric transport model can not only improve our understanding of the radionuclide transport and deposition processes but also provide an evaluation of the transport process in the model. To simulate these aerosol tracers, it is critical to evaluate the in
Problem
Complexity drives cost as it makes standardization and control difficult. The problem studied here is to identify which parts of these costs that are justified by creating competitive advantage and value to customer. What parts of the ConsEl new product development process add value, and how is this added value utilized? How can the non-value adding complexity of the new product
This book chapter takes an institutional perspective on competing logics in global markets concerned with sustainability values and how market actors in the form of buyers and sellers attempt to solve these conflicting situations. We do this by identifying competing institutional logics in global market contexts aiming for sustainability values, together with techniques for navigating these compet
The transformation and movement of work opportunities is not a new phenomenon. This has been the norm in many industries, such as manufacturing, semi-conductors, clothing, etc. This is the first time, however, that so-called knowledge intensive work areas would be hit en masse, instead of low waged jobs. This has and will have a large impact on individuals, firms, and society. From a global perspe
Global maritime security has been a subject of analysis and debate in the West since the onset of the European expansion. This article distinguishes four main periods with regard to the doctrines and practices of global maritime security since c. 1450, during which the role of the state in relation to private actors has shifted. As a concept of global policy making, however, maritime security only
This paper examines the challenges and opportunities faced bycritical agrarian scholars in and from the Global South. We arguethat despite the historical and structural limitations, the criticaljuncture of convergence of crises and renewed interest inagrarian political economies offers an opportunity for fostering adiverse research agenda that opens space for critical perspectivesabout, from and b
One way for manufacturing companies to gain competitive advantage in today’s business environment is to complement the product offering with surrounding services that deliver superior value to the customer. Further, the demand for these surrounding services is influenced by market-specific customer requirements, surrounding competitive environment and local prerequisites. Therefore, there is a nee
Prior to the COVID-19 crisis, global air transport demand was expected to triple between 2020 and 2050. The pandemic, which reduced global air travel significantly, provides an opportunity to discuss the scale, distribution and growth of aviation until 2018, also with a view to consider the climate change implications of a return to volume growth. Industry statistics, data provided by supranationa
Limiting the global production of primary plastics is necessary to curb greenhouse gas emissions as well as the environmental and health impacts ofplastic pollution.A cap on primary plastic production is possible and has precedent in environmental and climate change law. One approach for implementing such a cap is through a cap-and-trade system, which involves the distribution of production allowa
Climate change is a global and demanding issue, which affects all the states on the planet. The European Union has from the 90s been vigorously engaged in the international efforts to tackle climate change and even pursued to take on the leading role in the global climate regime. The two most anticipated UN conferences for combating climate change at the global level were the COP15 in 2009 and COP

The United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development, held in June 2012 in Rio de Janeiro, was probably the largest event in a long series of megasummits on environmental protection and sustainable development. Roughly 44 000 participants descended on Rio de Janeiro to take part in ten days of preparatory committee meetings, informal consultations, side events, and the actual conference. Yet d

This research examines inequality, environmental degradation and livelihood insecurity and vulnerability in Vietnam’s northwest uplands through the lens of farming systems. Specifically, the research analyzes factors impacting farming systems in two case study villages, as well as local stakeholders’ perceptions of these phenomena. An analytical approach based on the sustainable livelihoods framew
A long-standing problem in the Ordovician stratigraphy of south-eastern Norway has been to the relations between the Mjosa Formation in the Lake Mjosa region and coeval strata in the Oslo region. The recent discovery of the globally distributed Guttenberg delta(13)C excursion (Guttenberg Isotopic Carbon Excursion) in the Mjosa region provided the impetus to search for this excellent chemostratigra
Living systems integrate biochemical reactions that determine the functional state of each cell. Reactions are primarily mediated by proteins. In proteomic studies, these have been treated as independent entities, disregarding their higher-level organization into complexes that affects their activity and/or function and is thus of great interest for biological research. Here, we describe the imple
The general objective of this thesis was to increase the knowledge of how mental health and school performance are associated and how interventions may be designed and implemented to enhance the two.The data used in the four quantitative studies on which this thesis is based were derived from two age cohorts of students attending 14 elementary schools in two cities in the southern part of Sweden.
The future for diabetes is grave. Now described as the global epidemic of the 21st century, the increasing incidence of diabetes (in 2007 over 246 million people affected by diabetes) will place considerable strain on resources and will bring suffering to many if the preventative measures promoted by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), the International Working Group on the Diabetic Foot
Large interannual variations in the measured growth rate of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2) originate primarily from fluctuations in carbon uptake by land ecosystems. It remains uncertain, however, to what extent temperature and water availability control the carbon balance of land ecosystems across spatial and temporal scales. Here we use empirical models based on eddy covariance data and proce
Diachronic and synchronic studies of linguistic landscapes of central streets and markets were conducted in five cities in Ukraine with different language use preferences in 2015 and 2017–19. The relationship between a monolingual state language policy and the reality of language use in public spaces was investigated. This study focuses on the dynamics of the linguistic landscape of Odesa, a Russi
