11. Impact of school outdoor environment upon pupils' physical activity and sun exposure across ages and seasons
Sammanfattning : Background and aims: Among children, the lack of physical activity (PA) is widespread in developed countries. Further, the majority of all skin cancers depend on an overexposure to solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) in early life. LÄS MER
12. Epidemiology and prevention of football injuries
Sammanfattning : The aims of this thesis were to study the incidence, severity and pattern of injury in male and female elite football players; to study time trends in injury risk; to identify risk factors for injury; and to test the effectiveness of an intervention programme aimed at preventing re-injury.All studies followed a prospective design using standardised definitions and data collection forms.

13. Modelling Transpiration and Growth of Salinity and Drought Stressed Tomatoes
Sammanfattning : Irrigation with saline waters is an agricultural practicethat is becoming increasingly common as competition for freshwater increases. In this thesis the mechanisms behind salinityand drought stress has been studied using data from fieldexperiments in combination with a modelling tool, theCoupModel. LÄS MER
14. Adapting Scots pine Regeneration to the Changing Climate : An investigation of the effects of seed coating, arginine addition, and planting position
Sammanfattning : In Sweden, new forest stands have long been artificially regenerated using conifer seedlings. While standardized and widely adopted, this approach may need to be further adapted to the predicted increases in variations in the weather, such as extended periods of drought. LÄS MER
15. Greenhouse gas emission from tropical reservoirs : Spatial and temporal dynamics
Sammanfattning : The emission of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) from reservoirs has been estimated to make up for about 1.3% of the global anthropogenic greenhouse gas emission. The impoundment of a river leads to the accumulation of sediment that is brought in from inflowing rivers, and the sediment organic matter is degraded to CH4 and CO2. LÄS MER
