Klövviltets nyttjande av foderraps på viltåker och betespåverkan på angränsande skog
Today we have more game species than ever before in our landscape, both regarding number of species and number of individuals. The increasing number of wild species is an increase in game recourse for the countryside. The increase of game species, however, has negative effects on forests and agriculture land. The negative effects for forestry are damages on economic important trees, due to losses in production and quality. However there are ways to decrease the damage on valuable and important trees.

Att planera för tillväxt : med utgångspunkt i Lund och Köpenhamn
Politiska och ekonomiska svängningar samt geografiska förutsättningar präglar stadens fysiska planering samt dess uttryck och form. För Lund och Köpenhamns räkning har planeringsprocessen under drygt femtio år tillbaka skett utifrån ett antal plandokument, upprättade för att kontrollera stadens utveckling. Studier av dessa dokument visar hur städerna fysiskt brett ut sig i landskapet samt argumenteringen kring denna tillväxt. Under 50- och 60-talen bredde städerna ut sig för att kunna erbjuda fler och bättre bostäder under devisen ?välfärd åt alla?.
Kan Cystatin C ersätta Kreatinin som njurfunktionsmarkör vid hälsoundersökning?: En pilotstudie
Capio Företag i Lund utför hälsokontroller och som ett led i kvalitetssäkringen jämfördes två mätmetoder för njurfunktionsundersökning i denna pilotstudie. För att undersöka metodernas potential att identifiera asymptomatiska njurfunktions-nedsättningar vid hälsoundersökningar bestämdes två serummarkörer för glomerulärfiltrationshastighet (GFR), S-Kreatinin och S-Cystatin C hos 68, subjektivt friska, personer i åldern 28-82 år.S-Cystatin C men ej S-kreatinin visade signifikant ökning med åldern och fångade således in den åldersbetingade sänkningen av GFR. Det fanns statistiskt signifikant (p.

Fossilfria godstransporter : En undersökning av alternativ till diesel som drivmedel för lastbilar
Our modern society is in many ways built with and dependent on fossil fuels, which are used for energy production as well as for transporting humans and goods. Without the oil, many of the things we take for granted would not be possible. During the last century, the use of oil has increased steadily and will probably keep increasing as the world population and the economic well-being for many people increase. Since the oil is a finite resource, we will have to find other fuels that can replace it if we want to keep the same rate of development in the future as the availability of petrol fuels will decrease with rising prices as a result. Furthermore, fossil fuels have the disadvantage that they produce harmful emissions when combusted and thus affect the climate and air quality locally and globally.
Bevarande av svensk låglandsboskap
Sweden signed, in 1992, the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and has thus assumed responsibility for the indigenous biodiversity. That also means that Sweden has a conservation responsibility for the Swedish Friesian (SLB) (SJV, 2007a). In a survey conducted by the Board of Agriculture (SJV) in 1996, it appeared that there were around 780 cows and heifers of the SLB breed (SJV, 1997). SJV did in 2006 a plan for the development of livestock genet-ic resources and the number of cows of SLB was estimated at approximately 200. This meant that the SLB was in need of being conserved and SJV assumed it would be categorized as threatened.The primary objective of conservation of a breed is to reduce the loss of the original genetic variation (Lacy et al., 1995).
Export of wood pellets from British Columbia : a study about the production environment and international competitiveness of wood pellets from British Columbia
The global wood pellet market has seen a rapid growth after the adoption of the Kyoto protocol and the renewable energy incentives created within the European Union. The global consumption of wood pellets reached 13,5 million tonnes in 2010 and several experts estimate the consumption to be between 35-50 million tonnes by 2020. These forescasts raise the questions which regions that can supply this vast amount of wood pellets and what the conditions are for producing it.
This study evaluates the conditions for wood pellet production and export from British Columbia, on Canada?s west coast, focusing on existing industry structure, raw material supply and the distribution chain.
Behandlingseffekter av barn med dissociativ problematik
Studier på barn med en dissociativ problematik utifrån ett familje- eller gruppterapeutiskt perspektiv är ovanliga. Enligt Waters (1998) bör familjeterapin fokusera på rak och tydlig kommunikation. Silberg (1997) anser att barngruppsterapin bör ha ett psykopedagogiskt förhållningssätt. Denna studie studerade behandlingseffekterna av familjeterapi, barngruppsterapi och ingen terapi alls för barn med en dissociativ problematik Studien gjordes på en barnpsykiatrisk mottagning och pågick under sex månader, behandling och uppföljning. Urvalet baserades på mottagningens population och egna kriterier.
Vapenhandel : En kontradiktion till EU:s utvecklingspolitik?
Arms trade is a multi-faced issue, it can increase the state's economic revenue; however also endanger the human security. The European Union's member state United Kingdom is one of the five largest arms traders in the world. The EU promotes human security in its work, especially in the union's development policies. These circumstances address the main question of the study: is there a contradiction between the UK's arms trade and the EU development policies. The objective of this study is to research the stately weapon use in three of the UK's trading partners, and how it could affect the EU development policies.
Mobbning i vuxenlivet
Bullying is a widespread problem that currently exists in many places and in different age groups. In our paper we intend to focus on bullying in adult life. As many as 340,000 adult persons are subjected to victimization in the form of bullying, which is about 9 % of the working population. Between 100 and 300 cases of all suicides committed in Sweden can be linked to bullying. Bullying is a social problem that should be taken more seriously than it does.
Ungdomars upplevelser av gemenskap och utanförskap
The point of this study is to present how youths today experience fellowship and deviancy in relation to the different themes that have been chosen to interpret the results. I have treated questions about family, friends, experience of fellowship and deviancy. I have chosen to interview five young adult women and men in order to be able to understand their experiences of fellowship and deviancy. The study has a qualitative approach.In order to be able to interpret the result I have used theories about symbolic interaction, normality and meaning of fellowship. The results show that family is an important part of fellowship and that fellowship means much to form a conception about oneself.
GROWTH: En studie om hur man kan skapa liv i en post-apokalyptisk spelvärld
Detta arbete undersöker frågan om hur man kan gå tillväga för att skapa en
känsla av liv i en postapokalyptisk spelvärld med hjälp av färger, former och
animationer i en egen spelproduktion. Arbetet tar upp flera teorier kring
spelutveckling, post-apokalyptisk fiktion och färglära. Arbetet tar också upp
verktyg som användes i produktionen av det spel som skapades och hur arbetet
fortskred. Diskussionen som följer tar upp hur metoderna som användes påverkade
resultatet och vad resultatet blev, samt hur man gick tillväga för att tolka
det. Slutsatsen som dras i diskussionen visar att det är möjligt att skapa en
känsla av liv i en postapokalyptisk spelvärld i en egen produktion och hur man
kan förbättra de metoder som använts i en eventuell uppföljning av detta
arbete.

Kvinnors copingstrategier vid bröstcancer - en litteraturstudie med systematisk ansats
Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva vilka copingstrategier kvinnan använder sig av när hon har bröstcancer. Metoden som användes för denna litteraturstudie var Goodmans modell med sju steg för ett systematiskt tillvägagångssätt. Litteratursökningen utfördes i databaserna PsycInfo, Cinahl, PubMed Cochrane, SveMed+ och Medline. Oberoende av varandra har 10 artiklar kvalitetsgranskats enligt Carlsson & Eimans (2003) bedömningsmall som modifierades till den population som undersöktes. Resultatet av tio inkluderade studier visade att det fanns ett flertal olika copingstrategier som kvinnor använder sig av när de har bröstcancer.
