This thesis consists of four self-contained chapters that explore two areas in development economics: the impact of geography and climate on health, learning, and financial decision-making, and the influence of history and culture on human and social capital.In the first chapter, we study the effect of waterborne disease risk on children’s health and learning in Tanzania. Using a hydrological mode
Position and direction estimation is useful for numerous engineering applications for commercial, scientific, and military purposes. Technology that fuses observations of signals broadcast by Global Navigational Satellite Systems (GNSS) with inertial measurements is standard for electronic devices, but this requires at least a periodically unobstructed view of the sky to perform reliably. This has
Context. TOI-732 is an M dwarf hosting two transiting planets that are located on the two opposite sides of the radius valley. Inferring a reliable demographics for this type of systems is key to understanding their formation and evolution mechanisms. Aims. By doubling the number of available space-based observations and increasing the number of radial velocity (RV) measurements, we aim at refinin
Context. The third Gaia data release provides photometric time series covering 34 months for about 10 million stars. For many of those stars, a characterisation in Fourier space and their variability classification are also provided. This paper focuses on intermediate- to high-mass (IHM) main sequence pulsators (M'a ¥''1.3'M') of spectral types O, B, A, or F, known as β Cep, slowly pulsating B (SP
An aging population is associated with an increased prevalence of cognitive decline and related diseases. Gradual cognitive decline is a natural feature of aging, but may also develop into a more severe loss of cognitive function, manifesting as mild cognitive impairment or severe cognitive disease. Currently, no medical treatments can fully prevent these conditions or diseases. One approach is to
I takt med globaliseringen har det blivit allt lättare för företag att flytta vinster, vilket kan urholka medlemsstaters skattebaser. För att motverka denna utveckling har OECD länge arbetat med projektet BEPS (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting). En av åtgärderna i BEPS-projektet är införandet av obligatorisk rapportering. Inspirerad av OECD antog Europeiska unionen direktivet DAC 6, vilket SverigeWith globalization, it has become increasingly easy for companies to shift profits, leading to the erosion of member states’ tax bases. To counter this development, the OECD has long worked on the BEPS (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting) project. One key measure introduced under the BEPS project is the implementation of mandatory disclosure rules. Inspired by the OECD, the European Union adopted th

The building sector is important for Sweden’s climate mitigation efforts. Reducing emissions requires energy-efficient new buildings and sustainable renovation of existing ones. However, common envelope changes, such as thicker insulation or modified wall layers, may increase moisture accumulation and mould risk. Consequently, a comprehensive assessment of exterior walls across moisture safety, en
BACKGROUND The global prevalence of functional constipation is approximately 12%. It is characterized by infrequent complete spontaneous bowel movements (CSBMs), hard or lumpy stools, straining during defecation, and has a negative impact on quality of life (QoL). The probiotic strain Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) 299v (Lp299v) has been demonstrated to be efficacious in irritable bo
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Health guidelines play a central role in informing clinical practice, public health measures and health policy. But their trustworthiness may be undermined by factors such as insufficient methodological rigor, lack of transparency, conflicts of interest, and inconsistent application of established standards. Existing appraisal tools address selected aspects of guideline
Background: Hearing loss is estimated to affect more than 20% of the global population. Hearing aid fitting is a common intervention in audiological rehabilitation; however, there are still those who struggle with remaining communication difficulties that require additional intervention. The group rehabilitation program Active Communication Education (ACE) has been shown to be an effective alterna
Throughout the last decades, the social responsibility of corporations has undergone significant changes. From revolving around self-regulation, voluntariness, and soft law, the regulatory landscape has expanded to involve harder demands on corporations, such as mandatory sustainability due diligence. This thesis considers these changes as a hardening of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), and
BackgroundMolecular subtypes of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) with varying prognosis and characteristics have been proposed based on one or two-dimensional studies but are not yet implemented into clinical routine. Epigenetic modifications in cancer cells are independent of sequence variants, directly linked to gene and genome regulation, and thus provide important information to guide subclassificat
Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att utreda internetleverantörers ansvar vid tredje mans upphovsrättsintrång då internetleverantörer tillhandahåller internetuppkoppling till sådant intrång. Uppsatsen har också klargjort vilka upphovsrättsintrång som kan aktualisera internetleverantörers ansvar, samt vilka åtgärder företagen kan tvingas vidta för att förhindra förevarande intrång. Internet möjliThe purpose with this paper has been to examine internet service providers, also known as ISP:s, responsibility when they operates as an intermediate during third party copyright infringement. The essay has also investigated which copyright infringements that actualize such responsibility and what measures may be required by ISP:s to prevent copyright infringements. Today the internet makes copyr
In the Subantarctic Zone of the Southern Ocean, a combination of physical forcings, chemical solubility and biological fixation is controlling the carbon uptake and thus the role the Southern Ocean is playing in the remediation of global climate change. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the mechanisms controlling oceanic carbon budgets and to quantify biological uptake rates to make reliabl
