  1. 1. Masking environmental feedback : Misfits between institutions and ecosystems in Belize and Thailand

    Författare :Miriam Huitric; Carl Folke; Nils Kautsky; Juan Carlos Castilla; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Marine reserves; ecosystem change; sequential exploitation; pathology of resource use; institutions; driving forces; coral reefs; social-ecological systems; mangroves; aquaculture; Belize; Thailand; Maine; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : The thesis analyses relationships between ecological and social systems in the context of coastal ecosystems. It examines human impacts from resource extraction and addresses management and governance behind resource exploitation. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Churches, Chapels, and Maya Dwellings of Colonial Yucatán and Belize. A Postcolonial Approach

    Författare :Teobaldo Ramirez Barbosa; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Hybridity; Churches; dwellings;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis was conceived as an attempt to use the terms hybridity and third space in historical archaeology with a comparative analysis of early colonial churches and Maya dwellings on the Yucatán Peninsula and Belize. This analysis was aimed at reconsidering the influence of the indigenous societies in colonial encounters represented as hybrid material culture. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Antiretroviral drug resistant HIV-1 in women and children living in Honduras

    Författare :Leda Parham; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Antiretroviral therapy (ART) in HIV infected pregnant women contributes to the prevention of HIV transmission to the newborn. However, as ART can also induce HIV drug resistance during suboptimal levels of virological suppression a major concern is the subsequent risk for transmitted drug resistant (TDR) virus to the child.

  5. 4. Geochemical and sedimentary signatures of Phanerozoic events

    Författare :Jane Wigforss-Lange; Berggrundsgeologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; geokemi; Sedimentology; Petrology; mineralogy; geochemistry; Petrologi; mineralogi; Carbon and oxygen isotopes; Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary; K-T boundary; Late Silurian; Events; Trace elements; Sedimentologi;

    Sammanfattning : Geological and biological catastrophic events have occurred repeatedly in the Earth's history, leaving traces in the global stratigraphical record in the form of sedimentary features, geochemical anomalies and biotic turnovers. This thesis focuses on the sedimentological and geochemical signatures of several key events in the Phanerozoic stratigraphical record, and aims to interpret the different signals and the causal mechanisms behind each of these events.

  7. 5. Effects of habitat structure on tropical fish assemblages

    Författare :Kajsa Garpe; Marcus Öhman; Geoffrey Jones; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Marine ecology; Marin ekologi; marin ekologi; Marine Ecology;

    Sammanfattning : Rates of habitat alteration and degradation are increasing worldwide due to anthropogenic influence. On coral reefs, the loss of live coral reduces structural complexity while facilitating algal increase. In many coastal lagoons seagrass and corals are cleared to make room for cultivated macroalgae.
