  1. 1. Managing Mangrove Ecosystem Services for Local Livelihoods and Adaptations in Tanzania

    Författare :Baraka Nyangoko; Håkan Berg; Martin Gullström; Mwita Mangora; Mwanahija Shalli; Johan Hollander; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mangroves; ecosystem services; mangrove management; livelihoods; ecosystem-based adaptation; Tanzania; naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

    Sammanfattning : Recognizing the importance of ecosystem services (ES) for peoples' livelihoods and well-being is important for decision-making processes on conservation. Mangrove ecosystems in Tanzania are protected by law, but they continue to be exposed to degradation and loss, and there is still limited information about the awareness, preferences, status and trends of the ES they provide.

  2. 2. Osteoarthritis. Epidemiologic and genetic aspects

    Författare :Jonas Franklin; Lund Ortopedi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; body mass index; knee; hip; epidemiology; Osteoarthritis; occupation; hip fracture; inheritance; natural history;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study was to (I) assess the association between body mass index (BMI) and total hip replacement (THR) and total knee replacement (TKR) due to osteoarthritis (OA), (II) assess the association between the mechanical load of work and THR and TKR due to OA, (III) evaluate the natural history of radiographic hip OA with regards to THR and hip fracture, (IV) to determine the prevalence of radiographic OA in patients with hip fracture, and (V) to examine and compare the inheritance patterns of THR for OA and hip fracture. OA was previously regarded as a consequence of the wear and tear the joint is subjected to during one’s lifetime. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Towards a theory of natural occupation: developing theoretical, methodological and empirical support for the relation between plot systems and urban processes

    Författare :Evgeniya Bobkova; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; types; urban diversity; urban-morphology; plot systems; statistical analysis; temporal evolution of built form; quantitative descriptions; natural occupation; morphological measures;

    Sammanfattning : Plot systems (or ‘plots’, ‘lots’, ‘parcels’, ‘land divisions’) is a commonly recognised structural component of urban form along with streets and buildings. They play a critical role in understanding urban processes in cities, not least of all because they link directly between the physical world and institutions, such as property rights. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Participation in everyday life. Very old persons' experiences of daily occupation, occupation of interest and use of assistive devices

    Författare :Greta Häggblom Kronlöf; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :participation in everyday life; daily occupation; very old; assistive devices; occupation of interest; experiences; occupational therapy; qualitative reserach;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of the present thesis was to examine, extend and deepen the understanding of very old persons? experience of participation in everyday life from an occupational perspective. The thesis consists of four empirical studies. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Magnetic and Structural Properties of f-electron Systems from First Principles Theory

    Författare :Torbjörn Björkman; Olle Eriksson; Thomas Schulthess; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Fysik; Materialvetenskap; Materials Science;

    Sammanfattning : A series of studies of f-electron systems based on density functional theory methods have been performed.  The focus of the studies has been on magnetic and structural properties, as well as investigating ways to handle strong electron correlation in these systems. LÄS MER
