Fiskfaunan i Ekeby våtmark inventerades med hjälp av två metoder, fångst-återfångst och nätprovfiske, som i möjligaste mån använde metodiken vid standardiserat provfiske. Med fångst-återfångst metoden fångade jag sutare, abborre och småspigg, dock var fångsten av abborre och småspigg så liten att det inte kunde göras någon uppskattning av dessa populationsstorlekar. Uppskattningen av sutarnas populationsstorlek i damm 8 erhölls efter ett antal fångst och märkningstillfällen tills det fanns tillräckligt stor andel återfångst av sutare. De mjärdar som användes kunde bara fånga fisk av ett visst storleksintervall (35-120 mm) vilket troligtvis betyder att det enbart fångades 1- och 2-åriga sutare. Min uppskattning av antalet individer i populationen sutare (Lincoln Index) blev 1316 +/- 1127.

Critique regarding religious practices has become more and more apparent in today's society.Sans magazine has become a voice in the Swedish debate regarding religions undertakings and have received opposition from various directions. As Sans magazine, issue no.1, is accused of being islamophobic, the critique is focused on the internal discourse within the atheist and agnostic society. As Sans issue no.2 came out, it did not focus on Islam or any of the abrahamic religions but instead it discussed New age and the nature of pseudoscience.I sought to evolve the didactic discource regarding ?truth? and ?reality? by finding if thediscourse within Sans is apparent and if so, what it is based upon. The analysis also focuses onthe terms used to describe new age and pseudoscience.

I Sverige bera?knas 17 % av befolkningen ha en ho?rselnedsa?ttning, vilket inneba?r att det a?r den vanligaste sensoriska funktionsnedsa?ttningen. Idag finns det en ma?ngd studier som visar att ho?rselnedsa?ttning a?r relaterat till sa?mre psykisk ha?lsa. Acceptans av sin ho?rselnedsa?ttning har visat sig vara positivt fo?r ho?rselnedsatta och samvarierar med hja?lpso?kande.

Background: Investors have several options to choose from when the goal is to achieve the highest yield at the lowest cost and risk. Stocks are a common investment options, but is also associated with risks. Portfolios are usually constructed with several different assets to reduce the unsystematic risk of investment. Funds are similar to composite stock portfolios, the big difference is that they dealt with in their entirety and investors may not affect the fund's content. The problem remains that whether you choose stocks or mutual funds there is still uncertainty as to how the future will unfold.

We have the tradition in Sweden to build villas and houses with a wooden framework. It has become natural for us because we have so much forest in our country. Building with wood has advantages, it is easy to process, but also disadvantages, as it is sensitive to moisture.Finland has long made use of the thermal blocks to build villas. It is a type of bricks that are a bit like a sandwich element, with a core of EPS and concrete on both sides of the core material. The concrete is hollow, so that after the walls has been bricked up you pour concrete into the hollow bricks.The issue of this report is to find out if concrete can be an alternative to wood as framework material in villas.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att ta reda på hur resultatet skiljer sig åt mellan stora och små fondbolags Sverigefonder. Skillnaden försöker vi förklara med avseende på organisationsstruktur och förvaltningsstrategier.Vi har valt ut tre svenska aktiefonder som förvaltas av tre olika storbanker i Sverige, samt tre svenska aktiefonder som förvaltas av tre mindre fondbolag. Vi har beräknat dessa fonders risk samt avkastning för att se vilka fonder som klarat sig bäst. De mått och modeller vi använt är standardavvikelse, beta, aktiv risk, CAPM, Alfa, Treynorkvoten och Sharpekvoten.Vi har försökt ta reda på hur de olika fondbolagen arbetar genom intervjuer, information från hemsidor på Internet och annat skriftligt material.Empirin består av presentationer av fondbolagen, fakta om de olika fonderna samt den information vi samlat in om förvaltningsarbete. Det sistnämnda innefattar hur många som arbetar med fonderna, hur de interagerar med varandra och hur det går till när de avgör vilka aktier som ska ingå i fonderna.Efter att ha räknat ut alla riskmått och avkastningsmått stod det klart att bankerna har presterat betydligt sämre än de mindre fondbolagen.

In this essay I analyze the way my collection of poetry relates to the concept cyclic. What is cyclic and what different interpretations are there concerning the concept? Which other related concepts are there regarding things that seem to reoccur regularly? How does the cyclical, the circular, relate to the linear in regard, for example, to the perception of time? Life often creates the sense that different phenomena and experiences repeat themselves. Different processes are conducted according to regular or irregular cyclical phases, situations seem familiar and events can be relived.         Starting from my writing project Sinnligt kviller, a collection of poems, I discuss these questions in themselves and the impact they have had on my collection. I describe the phenomenon cyclic as a result of the emotions and moods this term creates in a more or less decisive way.         The intention with this paper is to show how Sinnligt kviller offers different perspectives of and reflections upon the various feelings provoked by the cyclic in our lives, feelings that are given my own voice in the literary text under study..

The built environment should be accessible for everyone. A residence shall be functional without creating a handicap for people who have a disability from birth, caused by an accident or of old age. A residence that is accessible creates equal conditions for everyone.In this report the accessibility of newly built blocks of flats in Uddevalla city from 1990 until today are interpreted. One project that is yet to be built is interpreted and compared with the already existing projects. The apartments of seven projects have been analyzed according to today?s regulations of accessibility.

This thesis aims to spread some light over the phenomena of gender construction in the upper secondary school. The background of this thesis is the gender gap in education. Girls are more successful in school and receive better grades than boys. The explanation that is given for this is that pupils are limited by far to rigid gender roles (DEJA 2010). The question is how these gender roles ? and specifically masculinity ? are constructed.

This essay investigates how the author Oline Stig creates identities for her main characters in three short stories; Midsommar, Polly Maggoo and Den längsta dagen from the collection Den andra himlen (2007).My investigation is based on concepts chosen from psychology and narratology: First, Jonas Stier?s definition of human identity. In his definition he focuses on a person?s social context. He also considers identity formation as an ongoing, ever- changing process.

The aim of this study has been to investigate actors? methods for acquiring information that is necessary for their profession, with a focus on the more random methods they might possibly use. The study is based on the following questions: What information needs do actors have in relation to their profession? Which methods do actors use to procure information? Which information systems do actors use? What role does the library play in the actors? acquisition of information? Through an interview study with 10 informants a picture is formed of the actors? information behavior. With the help of theoretical ideas regarding random methods of acquisition, we describe which information needs actors have and how they acquire that information.

Title: Belting in teaching. A study of views and teaching-procedure.The purpose of this study is to map how the singing teachers at a Swedish college of music describe and implement the vocal technique 'belting' in their curriculum. This study is based on watching and interviewing six different teachers. The theoretical part deals with voice physiology and four different theories surrounding belting. The results show that the descriptions of belting vary between teachers and experts alike.

The thesis demonstrates a low-cost, low-bandwidth and low-resolution Analog-to- Digital Converter(ADC) in 0.35 um CMOS Process. A second-order Sigma-Delta modulator is used as the basis of the A/D Converter. A Semi-Uniform quantizer is used with the modulator to take advantage of input distributions that are dominated by smaller-amplitude signals e.g. Audio, Voice and Image-sensor signals. A Single-bit feedback topology is used with a multi-bit quantizer in the modulator.

During the last year in the Innovation Engineering Program, at Halmstad University, a degree project was performed that was carried out during Fall semester in 2006 and Spring semester 2007. The project was performed by two students in corporation with LIC Audio AB, a company in Stockholm. The degree project was meant to result in a communication aid for people with a cognitive handicap. The project focused on people suffering from dementia because of the expressed need within this group. This aid should first and foremost help in a conversation between a person with dementia and another person, like a relative or nursing home staff.
