  1. 1. Adapting to melting glaciers : how Western Himalayan societies frame climate change and adaptation

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Författare :Taha Anis; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Adaptation; identity; risk and Information; authority; Himalayas; frame analysis; Gilgit-Baltistan; Pakistan;

    Sammanfattning : The glaciers of the Hindu-Kush Himalayas region flow into 10 major river basins and sustain nearly 2 billion people, with 250 million being directly dependent on them for freshwater sources while a further 1.65 billion rely on their outflows. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Explaining differences in labour market outcomes between natives and immigrants in a European institutional context

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Författare :Gustav Scherman; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Immigration; labour market segregation; labour market outcomes; activity rate gaps; unemployment rate gaps.; Business and Economics;

    Sammanfattning : In most European countries today, immigrants are doing worse than their native counterparts on the labour market, resulting in economically and socially undesirable outcomes. This thesis studies differences in labour market segregation for immigrants among European countries and explains how different institutional factors on the labour markets of Europe affect labour market segregation.

  4. 3. Kemisk fällning av fosfor med tvåvärt järn i kombination med aktivslam eller membranbioreaktor

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, KTH/Skolan för kemivetenskap (CHE)

    Författare :Paulina Sandberg Birgersson; [2017]
    Nyckelord :Kemisk fällning; järn II sulfat; MBR; fosforrening; avloppsvattenrening;

    Sammanfattning : Stockholm Vatten AB (SVAB) behöver utöka kapaciteten på avloppsreningsverket i Henriksdal. Därför kommer en membranbioreaktor (MBR) att implementeras i dagens befintliga aktivslamanläggning. Den nya anläggningen dimensioneras för att kunna hantera det förväntade flödet år 2040. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Optically Stimulated Luminescence Dating and Last Glacial Climate Reconstruction from the Lingtai Loess Section, Chinese Loess Plateau

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Emma Lagerbäck Adolphi; [2016]
    Nyckelord :Last Glacial; optical stimulated luminescence dating; Chinese loess plateau; Lingtai; magnetic susceptibility; mass accumulation rate; climate reconstruction;

    Sammanfattning : High resolution dating of loess on the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) using Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) has increased the understanding of past monsoon climate but also raised questions regarding dust mass accumulation rate (MAR), the presence of disturbances or gaps in the sediment record, a possible teleconnection between North Atlantic and East Asian monsoon climate, and whether these events are due to climate variability, local settings, or age model uncertainties. This study undertakes a detailed (<20cm sampling resolution) -OSL investigation of the Lingtai section to create an independent age model using linear regression, to reconstruct monsoon climate changes using magnetic susceptibility(MS) and grain size (GS) proxies, as well as to calculate MAR for the site.
