    Sammanfattning : How does space affect individuals’ outcome on the labor market? And how do we measure it? Beyond the notion of the labor market as a system of supply and demand, lays a society of individuals and workplaces, whose relationships are undeniably complex. This thesis aims to shed some new light on how to investigate and analyze the complex labor market relationships from a spatial perspective. LÄS MER

  5. 30. Spatial vision in diverse invertebrates

    Författare :John Kirwan; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; vision; visual ecology; invertebrates; spatial resolution; behaviour;

    Sammanfattning : Light-detection provides incomparabaly rapid information at a range of time scales and, consequently, directional photoreception is found in almost every major metazoan clade. Conversely, a much smaller cohort have evolved sophisticated high resolution vision, which facillitates complex tasks via the detection of fast or small objects,. LÄS MER
