1. 1. "Unity pervades all activity as water every wave" : principal teachings and philosophy of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

   Författare :Anders Lindh; Malmö högskola; []
   Nyckelord :Maharishi Mahesh Yogi; Transcendental Meditation; TM-Sidhi programme; Meditation; Indian philosophy; Philosophy; Maharishi Effect; Consciousness; Consciousness-Based Education; Bhagavadgītā; Metaphorical language; Veda; Vedic literature; Shankara; Vedanta; Advaita; Yoga;

   Sammanfattning : The major purpose of this thesis is to investigate some essential aspects of the teachings and philosophy of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (1917-2008) expressed during different periods of time. There is a primary focus on the teachings expressed in Maharishi’s translation and commentary on the didactic poem, Bhagavadgītā, with extensive references to Maharishi’s metaphorical language.

3. 2. Aspects of physical activity in Rheumatoid Arthritis : associations with inflammation and cardiovascular risk factors

   Författare :Kristina Hörnberg; Solveig Wållberg Jonsson; Björn Sundström; Christina Helging Opava; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; physiotherapy; rheumatoid arthritis; cardiovascular disease; aerobic capacity; physical activity; exercise; primary prevention;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD), partially attributable to systemic inflammation and traditional risk factors for CVD. Since physical activity (PA) is strongly related to CVD in the general population, the aim of this thesis was to describe aspects of PA in patients with RA, and further to analyse associations with disease activity, traditional risk factors for CVD and subclinical atherosclerosis.

4. 3. New perspectives in mesospheric wave dynamics and oxygen photochemistry

   Författare :Anqi Li; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; oxygen airglow; mesospheric ozone.; gravity wave; Satellite limb observation;

   Sammanfattning : The mesosphere is the region of the atmosphere between 50km to 100km, where both dynamical and photochemical aspects play important roles for the thermal balance. This thesis focuses on the following three areas for mesospheric studies: wave dynamics, oxygen photochemistry and retrieval using the optimal estimation method. LÄS MER

5. 4. Impact of Rossby waves on ozone distribution and dynamics of the stratosphere and troposphere

   Författare :Grigory Nikulin; Sheila Kirkwood; Ulrike Langematz; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Meteorology; ozone; wave activity; trends; Brewer-Dobson circulation; Rossby waves; Arctic Oscillation; low ozone events; Meteorologi; Meteorology; Meteorologi; Meteorology; meteorologi;

   Sammanfattning : Several physical mechanisms concerning the impact of Rossby waves on ozone distribution and circulation in the stratosphere and troposphere are studied in the thesis.Summertime total ozone variability over Middle Asia and Northern Scandinavia shows similar wave-like behaviour with typical periods of 10-20 days and amplitudes of 20-50 Dobson units.

7. 5. Utveckling av skolmiljöer - aktiviteter och mening i småskaligt arbete : Improving school environment - activities and meaning in small scale work

   Författare :Alan Schürer; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; School environment; environment in a broad sense; improvement; change work process; buildings; property management; maintenance; co-operation; empirical base; participation; learning; time; feedback; information; economy; activity; meaning and small scale;

   Sammanfattning : Almost every day, Swedish media bring up issues from the school environment. Public and academic research identifies problems in these environments. Knowledge about the school environment is mainly about the conditions in schools. Less is known about how schools could work with changing their environment. LÄS MER
