Coastal areas are popular for housing, both for permanent living and holiday houses. At the same time, thin sediments and small storage capacity in the bedrock makes the ground water resources limited. The limited ground water resources combined with too large withdrawals of ground water makes salt water intrusion a problem in many coastal areas. This study examine the risk of salt water intrusion in drinking water supplying wells on the island Södra Finnö in S:t Anna archipelago, Östergötland, Sweden. A calculation of the relation between ground water recharge and withdrawal is obtained to analyze the ground water balance in the area.

Climate change and the sea level rise that it contributes to is an ever more pressing issue for costal municipalities around the world. Today there is a great deal of scientific reports and projections on what these changes could entail. However, resent studies on south Swedish costal municipalities have shown great discrepancies when it comes to how these scientific projections are implemented in the municipal planning and adaptation strategies. In an effort to understand the underlying reasons for this lack of concurrence, this paper has applied Rolf Lidskogs theory of the hetrogenity of science. The theory gives an explanation to the complications in the science-policy interface, by describing complicating factors in the communication between these actors.

Studien belyser handledning som ett verktyg för att skapa ett lärande både för den individuella ledaren och organisationen som helhet. Ledarrollen i gymnasieskolan gavs ett speciellt fokus. Genom reflekterande samtal med sex personer verksamma som handledare, var syftet att få en fördjupad förståelse av vad det är för ett lärande som äger rum i handledningssituationen och vilka förutsättningar som gynnar lärandet. Den huvudsakliga frågeställningen handlade om hur intervjupersonerna ser på kopplingen mellan det individuella lärandet hos ledarna i handledning och ett lärande som påverkar hela organisationen.

Uppsatsens syfte är att analysera jobbrotation utifrån ett lärandeperspektiv. Utifrån en kvalitativ forskningsstrategi med narrativ metod har vi tagit del av fem stycken berättelser från medarbetare på AstraZeneca och Polismyndigheten i Skåne. Genom berättelser har vi fått ta del av medarbetares erfarenheter, tankar, åsikter och känslor kring jobbrotation och lärande. Utifrån den bearbetade empirin har vi valt de områden vi funnit intressanta för vidare analys inom området för jobbrotation ur ett lärandeperspektiv. Till empirin har vi ställt följande frågor; Varför jobbrotera? Vad lärs? Vem lär? och För vem lärs?Vårt resultat visar att medarbetarnas inställning och attityd till jobbrotationens syfte och mål styrt de erfarenhter, tankar, åsikter och känslor som delgivits.

Stockholm har en lång tradition av boende på vattnet. Gamla avbildningar av staden uppvisar ett myller av bebyggda bryggor och pålverk ute i vattnet. Genom åren har stadens invånare ofta tagit sin tillflykt till båtar, pråmar och halvsjunkna gamla vrak när bostadsbristen varit svår. De flytande samhällena ute på redden vid Ryssviken är det idag få som känner till.Under 1980-talet blev det olagligt att bo permanent på båt i Stockholm. Båtboende blev en gråzon därför att gränsdragningen mellan vistelse och boende på båt blev för svår.
