1. 1. Alpine ski sport injuries in Swedish Lapland

   Författare :Curt Made; Lars-Gunnar Elmqvist; Herbert Sandström; Robert J Johnson; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :skiing; wounds and injuries; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

   Sammanfattning : Downhill skiing is associated with recreation, youth, speed, aerials and crowded courses which carry increased risk of injuries. The aim of this study was to evaluate downhill sport injuries in a Swedish ski resort. Material and methodsIn a case-control study ongoing 1989/90–2006/07, 3,696 injured skiers were registered.

3. 2. Remnant echoes of the past : Archaeological geophysical prospection in Sweden

   Författare :Andreas Viberg; Kerstin Lidén; Bo Olofsson; Rinita Dalan; Bruce Bevan; Neil Price; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Archaeological prospection; geophysical survey; Sweden; Ground-penetrating radar; magnetometry; Slingram; magnetic susceptibility; Neolithic; Migration period; Viking Age; Middle Ages; Öland; Gotland; Sigtuna; Lapland; Archaeological Science; laborativ arkeologi;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis has been to investigate the benefits, pitfalls and possibilities of using geophysical methods in archaeological projects. This is exemplified by surveys carried out at archaeological sites in different geographical and chronological contexts. LÄS MER

4. 3. Studier av geomorfologi och isavsmältning i nordvästra Lappland

   Författare :Olle Melander; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of eight earlier published papers, all in Swedish (see page 7). In connection with geomorphological mapping in the area between Torneträsk and Stora Lule älv a considerable amount of information has been collected with regard to the recession of the inland ice sheet in the high mountains.

5. 4. The sensitivity of Swedish alpine lakes to hydro-climatic changes during the Late Holocene

   Författare :Annika Berntsson; Gunhild Rosqvist; Peter G. Langdon; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; alpine lake sediments; temperature reconstruction; precipitation; catchment erosion; chironomids; oxygen isotopes; XRF core scanning; geomorphology; grain size analysis; kvartärgeologi; Quaternary Geology;

   Sammanfattning : The thesis objective is to use lake sediments to investigate the relationships between chironomids, as proxy for temperature, and δ18O and minerogenic in-wash, as precipitation proxies, in northern Sweden during the Late Holocene. Three lakes along a N–S transect in the Scandes were studied using biological, geochemical and physical sediment properties, together with numerical methods. LÄS MER

7. 5. Alpine lake sediment archives and catchment geomorphology : causal relationships and implications for paleoenvironmental reconstructions

   Författare :Lena Rubensdotter; Gunhild Rosqvist; Ingmar Borgström; Eve Arnold; Jens-Ove Näslund; Catherine Souch; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; alpine lakes; geomorphology; lacustrine sedimentation; slope processes; glaciofluvial; Holocene; Swedish Lapland; Physical geography; Naturgeografi;

   Sammanfattning : Lake sediments are frequently used as archives of climate and environmental change. Minerogenic sediment variability in alpine lakes is often used to reconstruct past glacier and slope process activity. Alpine lake sediments can however have many different origins, which may induce errors in paleoenvironmental reconstructions. LÄS MER
