Ungern - dragkampen mellan regeringsmakten och högre utbildning

Hungary is one of the countries that has followed the global trend of democratic backsliding. Inspired by the closing of the Central European University in Budapest we decided to take a closer look at which laws made it possible for the Hungarian government to implement these changes on the higher education institutions. The purpose of this essay is to examine the civil democratic activity followi

Safety Evaluation and Growth Optimisation of a New Probiotic

Gut microbiota play a central role in metabolism for example in blood glucose homeostasis and appetite regulation. This thesis provides a prospect of using the bacterium Prevotella copri as a probiotic to help maintain a healthy gut microbiota as many evidences points towards probiotics to have a great potential as preventative agents or therapeutics for type 2 diabetes. In the first part of the tAccording to the World Health Organization (WHO) nearly 8.5% of the global population is affected by metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and obesity which are one of the major causes of death and disability worldwide. This causes a huge financial burden on the healthcare system globally. Therefore, there is an urgent need to prevent, delay and treat these diseases and their debilitating com

The role of ectomycorrhizal fungi in nitrogen retention in spruce forests fertilized with N, P or N+P

Mykorrhiza motverkar läckage av kväve Tillgången på kväve (N) begränsar tillväxt i nästan alla land-ekosystem. Därför förväntas ekosystem optimeras för att hushålla med denna resurs. Förbränning av fossila bränslen och industriell tillverkning har nyligen fördubblat tillgången på N. Jag har undersökt hur träd ingår partnerskap med svampar för att effektivisera sitt upptag av N, och hur deras relaEctomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) mediate nutrient exchange between trees and soil in coniferous forests. Nitrogen (N) currently limits net primary productivity (NPP) in many terrestrial ecosystems but N deposition may alleviate this limitation, inducing limitation of phosphorous (P) instead. Studies have shown reductions in production of EMF mycelia (EMM) when trees are alleviated limitation of N, unle

Japanese and South Korean Aging Populations in Media Narratives, 2006-2015

Rapid aging of the societies and falling birth rates across the world are among the most significant contemporary socioeconomic problems. Meanwhile, in the era of ‘Fake News’ the construction of the media narratives has become increasingly relevant. As challenges posed by aging population are often framed from the point of view of the competitiveness of societies, years 2006-2015 before, during an

Conservation genetics: structural analysis of the common eelgrass (Zostera marina) around Skåne, Sweden

How different are you? In the world oceans, seagrass meadows are common and an important habitat. Their presence reduces carbon levels from the atmosphere and increases the number of different animals which improves biodiversity. Yet, seagrass meadows are highly threated. In Sweden, there are several reasons for their loss mainly related to human activities such as constructions close to the coas

Absolut - A Cultural Approach To A Brand’s Communication Success

This paper is interested in the phenomenon whereby Absolut as a brand has become successful regardless of the fact that it promotes a generic product: vodka. However, instead of considering the most established factor for brand success, brand equity, this qualitative study attempts to use a more cultural-based approach in order to delve deeper into the questions of why the consumer actually connec

The Influence of Heterogeneity and Confining Pressure on the Hydromechanics of a Sandstone Using Neutron and X-Ray Imaging

This study utilizes advanced 3D imaging techniques, combining X-ray and neutron tomography, to investigate the hydromechanical evolution of Idaho Gray sandstone during coupled triaxial permeability tests. The analysis involved correlating mechanical and hydraulic bulk measurements, porosity fields, strain fields derived from Digital Volume Correlation analysis and fluid speed fields derived from t

Comparative Transcriptomics of Sijung and Jumli Marshi Rice during Early Chilling Stress Imply Multiple Protective Mechanisms.

Low temperature is one of the major environmental factors that adversely affect plant growth and yield. Many cereal crops from tropical regions, such as rice, are chilling sensitive and, therefore, are affected already at <10°C. Interestingly, it has been demonstrated that chilling susceptibility varies greatly among rice varieties, which indicates differences in the underlying molecular responses

Fluctuating selection on basal metabolic rate

BMR (Basal metabolic rate) is an important trait in animal life history as it represents a significant part of animal energy budgets. BMR has also been shown to be positively related to sustainable work rate and maximal thermoregulatory capacity. To this date, most of the studies have focused on the causes of interspecific and intraspecific variation in BMR, and fairly little is known about the fi

Strategic Disharmony and Grand Strategic Vacuum: Challenging the Traditional Perceptions on China’s Strategic Behaviour

This is a macro-historical study of China's strategic behaviour. China’s national defence has long posed an issue for Western observers and scholars. For generations, China’s attitude to warfare has been considered markedly pacifistic, and its concomitant military strategies primarily defensive. However, in his book Cultural Realism, Harvard’s Alastair Iain Johnston surprisingly concludes that Chi

Complex spectral properties of non-Hermitian operators : An application to open-flow mixing systems

We study the spectral properties of the advection-diffusion operator associated with a non-chaotic 3d Stokes flow defined in the annular region between counter-rotating cylinders of finite length. The focus is on the dependence of the eigenvalue-eigenfunction spectrum on the Peclet number Pe. Several convection-enhanced mixing regimes are identified, each characterized by a power law scaling, -μd∼

Process of change – competence development as a restructuring strategy

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to analyze and contextualize the outcomes of competence development as a restructuring strategy in a company that was significantly affected by the economic recession in 2008. Design/methodology/approach – In the context of restructuring, increased globalization has expanded international competition that in turn has put additional pressure on organizational

Detailed Numerical Simulations of Turbulent Premixed Flames at Moderate and High Karlovitz Numbers

Popular Abstract in Swedish Förblandad förbränning har sedan lång tid tillbaka varit en av grundbultarna i industriellt applicerad förbränning såsom i bensinmotorer och gasturbiner. Genom att direkt kunna kontrollera blandningsförhållandet mellan bränsle och luft kan utsläppen av skadliga ämnen hållas på en minimal nivå. Detta gör förblandad förbränning mycket attraktiv. För att industriellt appliIn generally accepted and applied flamelet combustion models, a turbulent flame is mainly assumed distorted by the large-scale turbulence eddies, whereas small-scale turbulence effects on the local flamelet structures are neglected. However, in a lot of industrial applications rather high turbulent intensities are often imposed, which induce turbulence scales at ranges smaller than the flame thick

European manikin standards and models to calculate thermal insulation

ISO 9920 defines three insulation calculation methods: global, parallel and serial. It considers global method a general one that works in any situation, and parallel and serial could be used in specific cases. EN ISO 15831 is the basic manikin testing standard. It gives only two possibilities: parallel and serial. The specific requirements for equations’ use are not set as in ISO 9920, e.g. unifo
