There was a widespread euphoria in the 1990s in Uzbekistan and other post-Soviet societies at the prospect that introducing Western-style public administration (PA) institutions and traditions would play a pivotal role in promoting the rule of law and democratisation. Like other newly independent post-Soviet states, Uzbekistan has become a “laboratory” for testing various global (Western) PA model
Climate change, characterized by an increase in extreme climatic events, poses a significant threat to forest productivity worldwide, potentially compromising its critical role in regulating the global carbon cycle. The response of forest productivity to compound events, such as hotter droughts, can be strongly modulated by functional traits. Forests dominated by acquisitive tree species (prioriti
Northern ecosystems, encompassing boreal forests, tundra, and permafrost areas, are increasingly affected by the amplified impacts of climate change. These ecosystems play a crucial role in determining the global carbon budget. To improve our understanding of carbon uptake in these regions, we evaluate the effectiveness of employing the physically-based Plant Phenology Index (PPI) to estimate gros
Bark beetle infestations pose a significant threat to forest ecosystems, necessitating timely intervention for effective management and conservation. This study focuses on an 8,100 km2 area in southern Sweden, heavily impacted by a bark beetle outbreak triggered by a severe drought in 2018. Using spectral indices derived from Sentinel-2 data, it explores the potential of a window-based approach fo
Drawing on collective experience from ten collaborative research projects focused on the Global South, we identify three major challenges that impede the translation of research on sustainability and resilience into better-informed choices by individuals and policy-makers that in turn can support transformation to a sustainable future. The three challenges comprise: (i) converting knowledge produc
Aim: How the ability of plants to move towards newly favourable habitats (dispersal limitation) impacts the change of biome distribution and transition under fast climate warming is still debated. Analysing vegetation change in the past may help to clarify the relative importance of underlying ecological processes such as climate, biotic interactions, and dispersal. In this study, we investigated
The large-scale mass mobilizations and colossal demonstrations of the last decade have shown that digital and social media platforms, globally, now play significant roles in early formation and further facilitation of activist movements, interested in progressive causes and societal changes. However, the repercussions of the very same events have also clearly shown the shortcomings of mediatized a
This essay investigates the UN's legitimization of the MINUSTAH mission in Haiti and examines how colonial power hierarchies have been reproduced through the mission. By applying a critical discourse analysis (CDA) and Carol Bacchi's WPR-approach, the study analyzes resolutions 1542, 1576, and 1892 to identify the use of language that frames Haiti as an unstable and weak state, depicted as
The Paris Agreement combines common global climate goals with nationally determined commitments, leaving states considerable room to adapt implementation to their own circumstances. The aim of this thesis is to examine how global goal-based governance interacts with national conditions in international climate cooperation. With special focus on how national policy space shapes states’ climate stra
Using a spectral vegetation index (VI) is an efficient approach for monitoring plant phenology from remotely-sensed data. However, the quantitative biophysical meaning of most VIs is still unclear, and, particularly at high northern latitudes characterized by low green biomass renewal rate and snow-affected VI signals, it is difficult to use them for tracking seasonal vegetation growth and retriev
Payments are central for society. Historically, it involved two parties exchanging goods and services for money. Today, payments, with increasing frequency, consist of digital representations of money that are transferred through globally intertwined network. Payments involve many parties such as payers, payment services providers, banks, central banks, telecom operators, mobile handset manufactur
During the last two decades or so, film support, film policy and the public financing of audiovisual production in Scandinavia and particularly Sweden have undergone extensive transformation. In diverse ways, these changes can be seen as responses to globalization, to increased sub-national regional independence as well as to the emerging idea of nurturing ‘creative industries’ taking hold. They m
Through rapid reactions with ozone, which can initiate the formation of secondary organic aerosols, the emission of sesquiterpenes from vegetation in Amazonia may have significant impacts on tropospheric chemistry and climate. Little is known, however, about sesquiterpene emissions, transport, and chemistry within plant canopies owing to analytical difficulties stemming from very low ambient conce
