1. Vegetation changes on Swedish mires : Effects of raised temperature and increased nitrogen and sulphur influx
Sammanfattning : Since the start of the industrialisation, the deposition of nitrogen and sulphur and the atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases have increased. The main objectives of this study were to find how these changes in climate and deposition can change the vegetation of mire ecosystems and the growth of Sphagnumspecies. LÄS MER
2. The spatial manifestation of inequality : residential segregation in Sweden and its causes
Sammanfattning : The thesis examines the relationship between income inequality and residential segregation in Swedish cities. In recent years, in Sweden, much attention has been given to the direction of causality from residential segregation to income inequality. LÄS MER
3. Enabling disability rights in practise : Understanding how the governance of state-funded personal assistance is fulfilling the Swedish LSS Act
Sammanfattning : Personal assistance (PA) is stated in Article 19 of the UNCRPD as an internationally recognised disability right and is operationalised as a measure in the Swedish Act concerning Support and Service for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments (the LSS Act). The Act’s overall policy goal is to promote good living conditions for the eligible persons by enabling participation in society on equal terms with others. LÄS MER
4. Green Urban Drainage Infrastructure : Hydrology and Modelling of Grass Swales
Sammanfattning : The management of urban runoff has evolved along with the advancement of understanding of runoff environmental impacts. Besides the impacts on water quality in the receiving waters, the impacts on the urban hydrologic regime include reduced infiltration by the sealing of pervious land, reduced evapotranspiration by removal of vegetation, and the resulting increase of stormwater runoff peaks and volumes causing flooding, and ultimately degradation of receiving waters.

5. Coagulation process characteristics and pollutant removal from urban runoff
Sammanfattning : Many different stormwater control measures (SCMs) can be implemented in order to mitigate issues with polluted stormwater flows into receiving water bodies. The treatment function of SCMs is commonly based on the removal of particles by sedimentation, thereby also removing pollutants associated with particles. LÄS MER
