Biodiversity is undergoing a major crisis primarily driven by the loss and degradation of habitats, as well as climate change. The depletion of biodiversity threatens our natural heritage, undermines ecosystems' ability to provide vital ecosystem services, and reduces their capacity to cope with ongoing pressures from global changes. At CEC, we analyze the consequences of human impact on biodivers

Research within the theme Gender, Sexuality, Queer, Trans takes place in a vibrant and internationally connected research environment that examines gender and sexuality as intersecting structures of power, oppression and resistance. Rooted in feminist, queer, transfeminist and crip theoretical traditions, this field has developed into a strong and distinctive research profile within the Division o

As the negative environmental impacts of contemporary agriculture become still more evident and widespread, the question of how to feed future generations while preserving the vital stability of the planet’s environment is more urgent than ever. Major institutions are targeting the environmental sustainability of agriculture, internationally as well as in Brazil. Brazil is one of the largest agric

In a global context of proliferating land-based investments, growing demographic pressure, and increasing urbanization, this thesis investigates a case of large-scale land acquisition (LSLA) in Babator, Norther Ghana. The objective is to provide a better understanding of how local power structures within affected communities influence the outcome of LSLAs. In particular, it focuses on patterns of

This article examines how embodied Virtual Reality (VR), when used as a participatory research method, can support the narrative sovereignty of refugees from the Global South by recognising their stories as key sources of knowledge production. This approach challenges dominant humanitarian and state discourses that often frame refugees as passive victims in need of saving. The article critiques th

Extractivism is a global phenomenon driven by the logic of capitalism that is manifested chiefly in mining, but also in agribusiness. Women around the world have emerged as leaders of resistance movements against extractivism. In this article, we question this recurrent theme in political ecology literature based on ethnographic fieldwork in southern Ecuador, where resistance has been less success

Boreal forests emit terpenoid biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) that significantly affect atmospheric chemistry. Our understanding of the variation of BVOC species emitted from boreal ecosystems is based on relatively few datasets, especially at the ecosystem-level. We conducted measurements to obtain BVOC flux observations above the boreal forest at the ICOS (Integrated Carbon Observati

We study two-dimensional, stationary square and hexagonal patterns in the thermocapillary deformational thin-film model for the fluid height h [Formula presented] that can be formally derived from the Bénard–Marangoni problem via a long-wave approximation. Using a linear stability analysis, we show that the flat surface profile corresponding to the pure conduction state destabilises at a critical

A proactive strategy to respond effectively to health impacts related to climate variability, particularly within vulnerable populations, is of vital importance. Such a strategy can be attained if health officials have a deep understanding of how climate variability affects human health and if the resources available for the health care sector are sufficient. This study assessed the perceptions an

This study was conducted to explore treatment and disease-related effects on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with aggressive lymphoma, to identify predictors for impaired long-term HRQoL, and to analyze the prognostic value of pretreatment HRQoL. Ninety-five patients with aggressive lymphoma, constituting a subset of a randomized multicenter trial comparing CHOP and MACOP-B, ent

Större olyckor är ofta komplexa och dynamiskahändelser som kännetecknas av en hög grad av osäkerhet, oförutsägbarhet ochtvetydighet. Under sådana förhållanden utmanas räddningstjänstens förmåga att lösa de olika och mGlobal trends suggest an increasing level of uncertainty regarding potential risks faced by individuals, organizations, or society as a whole. These trends are likely to alter the risk landscape, necessitating the enhancement of societal capabilities to effectively address emerging risks. Among the key actors dealing with such changes is the Fire and Rescue Service (FRS). However, these challenges

Enhancing forest drought resilience is important for preserving ecosystem services in the face of climate change, but operational management methods for boreal forests aiming to preserve ecosystem services under drought are still largely missing. This study explores the use of satellite remote sensing to monitor vegetation stress phases related to drought progression and to quantify both short- an

Air pollution in urban environments exhibits large spatial and temporal variations due to high heterogeneous air flow and emissions. To address the complexity of local air pollutant dynamics, a comprehensive large-eddy simulation using the PALM model system v6.0 was conducted. The distribution of flow and vehicle emitted aerosol particles in a realistic urban environment in Malmö, Sweden, was stud

This thesis aims to investigate the different mechanisms that Chinese companies in green industries used to acquire technological capabilities and how they changed over time. The thesis also aims to examine how the geographical pattern in outbound Chinese greenfield foreign direct investment has changed over time. By examining the inbound and outbound greenfield foreign direct investment pattern i

EU aims to achieve climate neutrality in 2050, 23 cities in Sweden aim to reach that goal already by 2030. A new city district in Helsingborg - southern Sweden - is being developed with the goal of achieving near net-zero carbon emissions. This study evaluates the first completed phase and aims to draw learning outcomes to lower carbon emissions for the remaining upcoming development phases. The
