  1. 1. Hårkortisol som ett mått på kronisk stress hos katter med diabetes mellitus

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Författare :Felicia Johansson Bergqvist; [2023]
    Nyckelord :diabetes mellitus; hårkortisol; HCC; katt; kronisk stress;

    Sammanfattning : Diabetes mellitus (DM) är en av de vanligaste endokrina sjukdomarna hos katt och definieras som ett tillstånd med persisterande hyperglykemi, ofta till följd av en insulinresistens. Katter som drabbas av sjukdomen behandlas vanligen med insulin, vilket ges som injektioner av djurägarna själva. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Estimating stellar limb darkening using exoplanet transits

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Sora Ishida; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Limb-darkening; CHEOPS; Transit; Exoplanet; PYCHEOPS; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : The brightness of the stars is not uniform over the surface as it varies depending on the wavelength and the atmosphere that the light propagates. Limb darkening is an optical effect caused by a decrease in brightness of the star towards the edge. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Modelling Risk in Real-Life Multi-Asset Portfolios

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Författare :Karin Hahn; Axel Backlund; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Risk modelling; multi-asset portfolios; risk factor models; time series analysis; regression; Riskmodellering; finansiella portföljer; riskfaktormodeller; tidsserieanalys; regression;

    Sammanfattning : We develop a risk factor model based on data from a large number of portfolios spanning multiple asset classes. The risk factors are selected based on economic theory through an analysis of the asset holdings, as well as statistical tests. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Werewolves to Are-wolves? Characterising key factors affecting public acceptance of a hypothetical Experimental Wolf Reintroduction in Scotland

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Författare :Marta Lamorgese; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Ecosystem Restoration; Rewilding; Large Predator Reintroduction; Wolf Reintroduction; Public Participation; Social Acceptance; Ex-ante Policy Evaluation; Local Stakeholders Engagement; Integrated Landscape Management; Attitude Formation; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The newest Scottish government Biodiversity Strategy prioritises control of overabundant deer populations. Ecological theory and real-life instances suggest an unorthodox deer management solution: wolf reintroduction (WR). Theoretically, wolves would prey on deer, thus alleviate grazing pressure on Scottish vegetation and help landscapes thrive. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Intergenerational blame attribution - a consequence of the perceived personal post-crisis economy of youth in Sweden?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Författare :Maral Darakhsh; [2023]
    Nyckelord :intergenerational tension; threat; authoritarianism; blame attribution; modernization theory;

    Sammanfattning : Motivated by recent claims from youth that older generations are jeopardizing their future, the purpose of this thesis is to study potential explanations for the variation of intergenerational blame attribution among Swedish youth. Ordinary least squares regression analysis is conducted on survey data, especially focused on young participants, to test several hypotheses about how perceived economic threats and one’s value orientation can impact young people’s motivation to blame elderly generations for economic difficulties.
