1. 6. The role of indicators in developing sustainable urban water systems

   Författare :Ulrika Palme; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Conventional urban water systems function well, in the sense that they protect receiving waters from eutrophication and supply the people they serve with water and sanitation. However, the rate at which these systems consume energy and resources in order to supply these services is increasingly regarded as unsustainable, while their capacity to recycle nutrients and handle toxic compounds is seen as limited and inadequate.

3. 7. Utility Disturbance Management in the Process Industry

   Författare :Anna Lindholm; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; utilities; process control; plant-wide disturbances; availability; buffer tanks;

   Sammanfattning : Use of utilities, such as steam and cooling water, is very common at industrial sites. Utilities are often shared between several production areas, and a disturbance in the supply of a utility is therefore likely to affect a large part of the production site, and cause great loss of revenue.

4. 8. Hierarchical Scheduling and Utility Disturbance Management in the Process Industry

   Författare :Anna Lindholm; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; plant-wide disturbances; utilities; production control; production scheduling; process industry; enterprise modeling; availability; receding horizon control;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with control of production at large-scale process industrial sites in the presence of disturbances. The main focus is on disturbances in the supply of utilities such as steam, cooling water and electricity. LÄS MER

5. 9. How elephants utilize a miombo-wetland ecosystem in Ugalla landscape, Western Tanzania

   Författare :Elikana Kalumanga; Sara Cousins; Steve Lyon; Jan Bengtsson; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biodiversity; Browsing; Elephants; Forage; GPS collars; Mineral elements; Miombo woodlands; Protected areas; Termite mounds; Ugalla; Water hyacinth; Woody plants abundance; Physical Geography; naturgeografi;

   Sammanfattning : African elephants are ‘keystone’ species with respect to biodiversity conservation in Africa since they maintain habitats that support several animal communities by changing vegetation structure through foraging and by dispersing seeds between landscapes. Elephants are also ‘flagship’ species because, given their impressive size, they can make people sympathetic and stimulate local and international concerns for their protection. LÄS MER

7. 10. The Legal Regime of International Watercourses : Progress and Paradigms Regarding Uses and Environmental Protection

   Författare :Katak Malla; Said Mahmoudi; Phoebe Okowa; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Legal regimes of navigational use; non-navigational uses and environmental protection; equitable utilization; sustainable development and integrated management; International law; Folkrätt;

   Sammanfattning : This study deals with the law of international watercourses that are shared by two or more States, the legal regimes of which have evolved significantly, especially in the past two centuries. The developments of and paradigm shifts in the legal regimes for the multiple uses and environmental protection are studied through an examination of different sources of international law since the early 19th century.
