Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Himalayas glaciärer både växer och blir mindre som ett svar på klimatförändringarna. Den dominerande trenden är att ismassor minskar, speciellt för mindre glaciärer. Allt eftersom glaciärer drar sig tillbaka, ändras hydrologin och vattentillgängligheten, både uppströms och nedströms inom dräneringsområdet. Denna förändring är mest tydlig på hög altitud där jordbHimalayan glaciers are both growing and shrinking as a response to global climate change. The major trend is a loss of ice sheets, especially among the smaller glaciers. As glaciers retreat there is a change in hydrology and seasonal water availability both upstream and downstream of the river basins. This is most apparent in high altitude and glacierfed areas where meltwater is the main (sometime

Biocoal is a fossil- free reductant in metallurgical processes. Due to the increasing use, risks associated with self-heating needs to be better understood. In this work, the apparent activation energy and reaction kinetics of a commercial biocoal were investigated using isothermal calorimetry, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, and basket heating tests, including the c

The thesis explores whether the precautionary principle can be reconciled with and integrated into the European Convention on Human Rights (“ECHR”), particularly in the context of climate change. It examines whether the European Court of Human Rights (“ECtHR” or “Court”) addresses climate change issues through the precautionary principle by including precautionary reasoning in its assessments. Th

This thesis explores the interaction between conceptions of the right of self-defense in the legally unsettled contexts of cyber armed attacks and non-state actors on foreign territory, examining their respective operational complexities individually and synergistically. Utilizing a legal positivist methodology, the thesis highlights how interpretations of the ratione conditionis of the lawful exe

The endemic Philippine crocodile (Crocodylus mindorensis) is considered the most threatened crocodile species globally and is listed as critically endangered on the IUCN Red List. The species was considered extinct on Luzon Island until the discovery of a remnant population in 1999. This led to the first in-situ conservation measures and later community-based conservation. Public perception has pr

Aftermath of the Tsunami disaster in 2004 and current COVID-19 pandemic, developing nations have faced serious economic disparities. Sri Lanka, an island nation in South Asia, has faced the same economic hardships that many economies face globally. The hardest-hit segment of this economic incongruences has been the marginal communities. Post-Tsunami disaster development scenarios have revealed fem

Architecture is always intrinsically tied to place. Regardless of how architects choose to interact with and study it, the context our buildings are meant to inhabit is an important piece of the puzzle. As the world is getting more interconnected and geographical constraints are getting less important to the architectural profession, I am interested in how the creative process changes when assumpt

Black carbon is an ever-growing global problem and one of the most important environmental issues of this generation. Black carbon, also known as soot, is a highly polluting substance and it is the second-largest polluter after carbon dioxide. BC consists of pure carbon in various forms and is produced by the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, biofuels, and biomass. It is transported by air mo

The global adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), developed by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), aims to enhance financial reporting transparency, comparability, and reliability by standardizing accounting practices and limiting managerial discretion. While IFRS has improved accounting quality in many regions, its impact depends on prior local GAAP quali

Global food systems are increasingly vulnerable to climate change, energy volatility, and geopolitical disruptions—threatening the security and stability of perishable supply chains. This thesis investigates the potential of aseptic packaging technologies, specifically ultra-high-temperature (UHT) treatment and sterile filling, as a means to reduce energy consumption and enhance resilience in the

The extensive use of pesticides within the agricultural landscape is essential for maintaining sufficient yields and sustaining our growing population, however, their widespread use is not without costs. Increasing evidence shows that pesticides harm many non-target organisms, including those providing vital ecosystem services. Pollinators, for instance, are critical for the fruiting of nearly 75%

In 2022, approximately 32 million patients worldwide suffered from Alzheimer’s disease dementia. In addition to this, about 380 million people carried the biomarkers indicating Alzheimer’s, while displaying little to no symptoms. These people, however, always live with the risk of the disease progressing - making the development of a drug that can slow down or stop progression an endeavour of glob

Bumblebees are essential pollinators for a wide range of plant species and thus essential for global ecosystems and food security. However, recent declines in their populations have made understanding their underlying causes necessary. One of those causes is the application of pesticides in agricultural landscapes. The toxicity of these pesticides is commonly assessed in isolation, which oftentime

Wetlands are valuable ecosystems, and assets for human life, that must be regularly monitored, starting with accurately mapping their location and extent. However, an updated national inventory of wetlands is needed. The availability of multi-source data, and advanced machine learning algorithms in Google Earth Engine (GEE) offers excellent opportunities to map wetlands on a country-wide scale. Th

In recent years, with corporate scandals and the global financial crisis there is continuous attention in the area of corporate governance which is the new concept in corporate world these days. It is seen as a moral duty and includes supporting the conformity to law and showing ethical guide. Corporate Governance is seen as a significant tool as firms’ financial performance when investors take an

Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a well established intervention for secondary prevention after myocardial infarction (MI), yet substantial variability in CR delivery and patient outcomes persists globally. This review provides an in-depth overview of the SWEDEHEART-CR registry, a comprehensive Swedish national quality registry that has facilitated continuous quality improvement and clinical researc
