Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Torvmossen - vår räddare undan klimathotet? Att vår jord just nu genomgår en dramatisk klimatförändring har knappast kunnat undgå någon. Förbränning av fossila bränslen tillsammans med en rad andra mänskliga aktiviteter har ökat koncentrationen av koldioxid, CO2, i atmosfären med ungefär 36% sedan början av 1700-talet. Denna ökning anses vara en viktig orsak tiDuring the last century the carbon dioxide, CO2, concentration in our atmosphere has increased because of anthropogenic emissions, mainly from fossil fuel burning. This release of carbon dioxide has caused an increase of the greenhouse effect. During millennia’s peatlands have acted as a carbon sink, taking up the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. One third of the world´s total soil carbon is st

One major problem in global governance is the specification of decision-making rules for international and regional organisations to coordinate the states of the world. Various organisations use different decision-making rules, and the properties of these rules may be compared systematically in terms of the power index approach. The power index solution concept of N-person games may be employed to

Study region: In the Yangtze River basin of China. Study focus: We applied a recently popular deep learning (DL) algorithm, Transformer (TSF), and two commonly used DL methods, Long-Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), to evaluate the performance of TSF in predicting runoff in the Yangtze River basin. We also add the main structure of TSF, Self-Attention (SA), to the LSTM and G

The initiative has sparked intense debates and counteractions on the global stage and has become synonymous with Xi Jinping’s assertive approach to foreign policy. However, many aspects of the initiative’s goals, impleme

Många groddjur har minskande populationstrender både lokalt och globalt. Inventeringar av groddjur är en viktig del av arbetet för att få mer information om deras utbredning för att kunna skydda groddjuren och deras miljöer. Detta kan ha positiva effekter även på andra djur och växter eftersom groddjur är bra indikatorer på rika miljöer. Genom sitt vattenupptag via huden är groddjuren extremt käns
