1. 1. Assessing Safety Risks for the Sea Transport Link of a Multimodal Dangerous Goods Transport Chain

   Författare :Ellis Joanne; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dangerous goods; cargo transport units; accident; spills; maritime safety; risk analysis; incidents; container ships;

   Sammanfattning : Transport of goods in containers and cargo transport units by sea as part of multimodal transport chains presents unique challenges from a safety perspective. The units can hold a broad mix of cargo types, including dangerous goods with hazardous properties. LÄS MER

3. 2. The monetary value of marine environmental change

   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Contingent valuation; choice experiment; benefits transfer; cost-benefit analysis; ecosystem services; eutrophication; oil spills; Baltic Sea; Arctic; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

   Sammanfattning : The marine ecosystems are fundamental for human welfare. A number of current environmental pressures need attention, and the formulation of management strategies requires information from a variety of analytical dimensions. The linkage between environmental change and resulting implications for human welfare is one such dimension. LÄS MER

5. 4. Groundwater vulnerability assessment using process-based models

   Författare :Riitta Lindström; Roger Thunvik; Pertti Vakkilainen; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Environmental technology; Database; Groundwater vulnerability; Hydrogeological environment; Process-based models; Penetration depth; Turnover time; Miljöteknik; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

   Sammanfattning : The focus of this thesis is on groundwater vulnerability assessment by process-based simulation models and data acquisition for these assessments. A modelling system for intrinsic groundwater vulnerability assessment in water supply areas was developed, consisting of flow- and transport models for the unsaturated zone and the groundwater zone, coupled to a geographical informa-tion system.

7. 5. Essays on International Trade : Theory and Evidence on the Determinants and Implications of Firms' Import Behaviour

   Författare :Evangelia Pateli; Rikard Forslid; Anders Åkerman; Philippe Martin; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; international trade; extensive margins of trade; international sourcing; hierarchical sorting; information spillovers; devaluations; intermediate import dependence; Economics; nationalekonomi;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis aspires to further contribute to our understanding of both the determinants as well as the implications of intermediate goods trade. Faced with intensifying global competition, firms are increasingly developing their production process and their sourcing strategies beyond national borders in order to take advantage of lower costs, superior quality and technological advances.
