Högre utbildning och forskning är en av de samhällsarenor där kvinnors position radikalt har förändrats de senaste trettio åren. Kvinnor är inte länge en minoritet inom akademin i stort, samtidigt som män fortfarande dominerar på ledningspositioner och professorstjänster. Andra minoritiserade grupper har också uppnått en större närvaro och synlighet. Policy för jämställdhet och mångfald är ofta ce

Abstract Inducible plant responses to damage, i.e. inducible defence responses and compensatory growth responses, are theoretically examined in an evolutionary and ecological context. Inducible defences are generally considered to be beneficial under conditions of low risk of herbivory and when initial damage is moderate. This study indicate that under these circumstances, localized defence respon

This paper presents an approach to validity and related questions of empirical research starting from and aiming at an understanding of the individual’s life-world experience strictly from the point of view of the individual himself and fitting to the theoretical frame of reference for the development of the ontological and methodological reflections of Husserlian phenomenology. I introduce a meth

The organisational network of global environmental governance (GEG) mirrors the complexity of the planet's manifold and overlapping ecosystems. Bursting onto the international stage in the 1970s, environmental issues began to be addressed by a series of new international organisations, most of them affiliated with the United Nations. Some of them, such as the United Nations Environment Programme (

One third of the earth´s soils is calcareous. Calcifuge plants are excluded from these soils, and one of the main causes is Fe deficiency, as Fe solubility in calcareous soil is very low. A lack of Fe lowers chlorophyll content, visible as yellowing of leaves, called chlorosis. It is demonstrated that the main cause of chlorosis in calcifuges is that a large part of the Fe in their leaf tissues i
