1. 1. Regional cooperation and conflict management: Lessons from the Pacific Rim

   Författare :Niklas Swanström; Tom Hart; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Peace and conflict research; Regional cooperation; formal; informal; conflict management; Pacific Rim; East Asia; Northeast Asia; Southeast Asia; Americas; North America; South America; regional organizations; conflict resolution; regionalism.; Freds- och konfliktforskning; Peace and conflict research; Freds- och konfliktforskning; Peace and Conflict Research; freds- och konfliktforskning;

   Sammanfattning : Regional cooperation is increasingly important as a means to create peaceful relations and improve economic development. The problem today is not to initiate cooperation, but rather how to handle disputes and maintain good relations. This is done through conflict management mechanisms (CMMs) in most regional cooperation structures. LÄS MER

3. 2. Paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic changes in northeast Thailand during the Holocene

   Författare :Sakonvan Chawchai; Barbara Wohlfarth; Richard Bindler; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Paleoenvironment; paleoclimatic; sediment; peat; multi-proxy; Asian monsoon; the Holocene; Marine Geology; maringeologi;

   Sammanfattning : The long-term climatic and environmental history of Southeast Asia is still fragmentary. This thesis therefore aims at studying lake sediment/peat sequences using a multi-proxy approach to reconstruct the environmental history and the impact of past changes in monsoon variability and intensity on lake ecosystems in Thailand.

4. 3. Spatial Strategies for Biodiversity Conservation

   Författare :André Pinto da Silva; Mats Bjõrklund; Greta Bocedi; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; global change; Southern Asia; mammals; ecological modelling; Biology with specialization in Animal Conservation; Biologi med inriktning mot zoologisk bevarandebiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Biodiversity is being lost under alarming rates due to an unsustainable socio-economic trajectory causing global change. Such loss is unequally spread over the Earth, and Southern Asia has been and is projected to continue to be one of the most affected regions. LÄS MER

5. 4. Asian monsoon over mainland Southeast Asia in the past 25 000 years

   Författare :Akkaneewut Chabangborn; Barbara Wohlfarth; Karen Kohfeld; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Asian monsoon; ITCZ; palaeo-vegetation; palaeoclimate; lake sediment; Last Glacial Maximum; Holocene; Marine Geoscience; marin geovetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : The objective of this research is to interpret high-resolution palaeo-proxy data sets to understand the Asian summer monsoon variability in the past. This was done by synthesizing published palaeo-records from the Asian monsoon region, model simulation comparisons, and analysing new lake sedimentary records from northeast Thailand. LÄS MER

7. 5. Research in rock magnetism and palaeomagnetism of recent sediments and palaeozoic to tertiary rocks in Thailand

   Författare :Tribop Bhongsuwan; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tillämpad geofysik; Applied Geophysics;

   Sammanfattning : Rock magnetic and palaeomagnetic studies have been performed on sediments and Palaeozoic to Tertiary rocks in Thailand. The first part of the thesis includes an environmantal study based on the magnetic properties of recent sediments in one of southern Thailands largest water reservoirs, the Songkla Lake. LÄS MER
