Dark ecology is a critique of both an anthropocentric and a biocentric worldview, aiming to erase the dichotomy between human/nature and subject/object. LÄS MER
3. Metaller i Vombsjön - Mygglarver som bioindikator för miljöövervakning
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)Sammanfattning : This study investigates concentrations of eight metals (Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb, Hg, Cr, Ni, As) in the freshwater resource Lake Vomb, located in the south of Sweden (Scania), and explores the potential use of deformed Chironomidae larvae as bioindicator. Sediment samples from six locations were analysed against threshold values from the Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management and background values from the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency.

4. Multicriteria Evaluation in Real Estate Land-use Suitability Analysis: The case of Volos, Greece
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : The integration of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) into real estate analysis has long been considered an interesting interdisciplinary pursuit, but has yet to become mainstream. Despite the increasing academic focus over the last twenty years, this endeavour has mostly been approached from the scientific side of Geography. LÄS MER
5. Testing a contemplative landscape method to design a stress-reducing therapeutic landscape for the Mellanorrlands Hospice
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural DevelopmentSammanfattning : This thesis explores the effectiveness of the Contemplative Landscape Method (CLM) in designing a stress-reducing therapeutic landscape for Mellanorrlands Hospice, aimed at improving the well-being of palliative care patients. With the increasing importance of palliative care due to an ageing population and the growing demand for hospice services, this study addresses the pressing need for therapeutic landscapes that make a positive contribution to the emotional and psychological health of patients and staff.
