The river Bivaröd is one of the river Helgeån tributaries which has the highest and the fastest increase in water colour. The reason behind this increase is unclear but several factors have been suggested to affect this pattern. In this work, I studied the role of land use, iron and precipitation for water colour increase in river Bivaröd for the period 1976 -2011. Data from a field study along with data from SRK for river Helgeån were used for the analyses. The results showed that both water colour and iron concentration increase and that there is a strong correlation between these two variables.

With this essay we want to describe the transformation process that the real estate owner has to go through to sell the current rented flats to tenant. We also want to provide an understanding how the valuation is performed in the transformation process and highlight the issues that affects the price in the valuations. In the essay we would like to see if the valuation and the transformation process differ in a public real estate company compared to a private real estate company. Based on this we have asked us the following question to answer: -Is there any differences in how real estate?s are valued in the transformation process between public real estate companies and private real estate companies? We have used a qualitative approach to keep our main question.

Around year 2004, a new service was introduced on the Swedish housing market with the purpose of increasing the sell price, namely homestaging. Homestaging means that a home gets in order before a open house, for example by removing personal affections or the leasing of new furniture. The phenomenon originates from the United States, where it has existed for several decades.Most components, but not all, that is included in the homestaging concept is tax-deductible and this has lead to several questions around the law and foremost within tax law. To elucidate this complexity of problems around the right to deduction for homestaging, the Swedish tax agency, Skatteverket, has formulated a letter stating the authority?s attitude towards the phenomenon.

Deregulation on the market for agricultural products leads to a more globalised market with increasing price fluctuations. This, in turn, places the farmer in positions influenced by new risks but also improved opportunities. The farmers are faced by uncertainty in terms of financial outcome. To be able to utilise these new market conditions it becomes increasingly important for farmers to continuously follow the price trend, and to develop strategies how to manage the risks exposed by a volatile market. Farmers with different conditions perceive risk in different ways. Hence, their risk management behaviour will vary.

Studien syftar till att undersöka om den information som lämnas i noterade företags finansiella rapporter idag uppfyller de behov som finansanalytiker i Sverige har. Därmed ämnar studien klarlägga hur användbar informationen är, om informationsinnehållet är tillfredsställande samt vad finansanalytiker anser om utvecklingen av de finansiella rapporterna. Metoden bygger på en deduktiv ansats som har använts kombinerat med ett deskriptivt syfte. Utifrån tidigare forskning har en hypotes formulerats som därefter har testats gentemot insamlad empiri. En kvalitativ små-N-studie, där ett mindre antal enheter studeras mer djupgående, har genomförts genom intervjuer med tio sell-side analytiker.

This essay describes and compares the extensive reindeer management to the more intensive, but grazing based, sheep management system in Sweden. Differences and similarities between the two production systems will be investigated by elucidating the economy, land use and possibilities to influence production and economy through breeding, feeding and product development. The reindeer management area covers the northern part of Sweden whilst the sheep management is dispersed over the country. Both reindeer and sheep are ruminants and have relatively high demands on the quality and digestibility of the feed however reindeers graze on mountain-and forest lands whilst sheep often graze inaccessible areas or cultivated grasslands. Selection intensity is generally lower in the reindeer management compared to the intensity in sheep breeding.

Title: "The proper real estate agent"- a paper on expectations for new real estate agent's first impression.

Den mest eftertraktade råvaran i svenska skogar är barrvirke och detta har sedan länge varit vägledande för skogsbrukets planering och skötsel. Brandskydd, ökat betestryck och skötsel för barrträd har missgynnat lövträden. Eftersom lövskogar i den boreala zonen tillhör ett av de artrikaste ekosystem är kontinuerlig förekomst av lövträd och lövdominerade bestånd viktigt för den biologiska mångfalden. Den standard skogsägare certifierade enligt FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) har att följa innehåller två lövindikatorer, 6.3.8. och 6.3.9..

This master thesis is about the collaboration between the custom dairy heifer grower and thedairy producer.The custom dairy heifer grower is a rather unusual strategy of reproductive management inSweden compared to other countries like U.S. and Denmark where the specialization withindairy production gone much further. In these countries the research also has reached muchfurther within this type of industry. However in Sweden there has been research made in thearea of collaboration, but then only within collaborations in the industries of crop production,dairy production and pork meat.The down going trend of profitability within dairy production together with poor profitabilityin the beef industry could partly remedy if more collaborations around heifer contractingwould arise. But since the industry still is of a rare kind in Sweden the knowledge about howthese types of collaborative arrangements works and their contracts are put together is poor.By that the aim of this master thesis is formulated as follows: "how is usually thecollaborative arrangement between the dairy producer and custom dairy heifer growerdesigned".

Intresset för bioenergi bara ökar. 2008 var den totala energianvändningen i Sverige 497 terawatt timmar (TWh), varav 125 TWh (25 %) kom från biobränslen (Elofson, 2009). Under de sista åren har utbudet av och intresset för biobränslen ökat och också möjligheterna att tillvarata och använda dem. Arbetet har som syfte att: 1) Presentera resultaten i Sverige från användare av C16, 2) Presentera resultaten för olika användningsområden, 3) Beskriva marknaderna i England, 4) Presentera resultaten gällande maskinkostnader och tidsstudie. Detta visar en bild av C16 och de kunskaper och erfarenheter som finns av aggregatet. Maskintillverkaren Bracke Forest som etablerades 1922 och har flera produkter anpassade för aktiviteter i skogen. Företaget investerar mycket pengar på forskning och produktutveckling. Skogsvårds och bioenergiaggregatet, C16, används idag till många olika arbetsuppgifter och i många olika länder.

The concerning issue of declining number of hunters in North America is also apparent in Europe and Sweden. When the bulk of research found on human dimensions and hunting participation has almost exclusively been done in the United States, this report seeks to add to the needed knowledge on a national level focusing on the causes of hunter declines related to social factors within Sweden. Using hunter data reaching from commune, county to National level, this report describes the correlation between a number of variables and the hunting participation in Sweden.The typical Swedish hunter lives in an area with low population density, the person usually has higher education, the living situation is stable with no recent moving and there is relatively good access to forest land. Persons with weaker connection to the Swedish culture such as foreign citizens, people with foreign background and people born outside ?the Nordic countries? are less likely to start hunt or participate in hunting.A strong relationship was found between the favorite game, moose (Alces alces), and the amount of hunters participating in the hunting.

The objectives of this research were to determine whether the natural rattan resources in Sulawesi, Indonesia can cope with the strongly increased harvesting pressure that has occurred over the last centuries. I was furthermore looking for patterns in the rattan population dynamics that might give a hint on how the harvesting system could be improved to ensure a maximum sustainable yield. To answer these questions, I developed an individual-based model to analyse the dynamics of rattan growth in connection with rattan harvests by locals to identify sustainable levels of rattan harvests around villages in Sulawesi, Indonesia. Scenarios with different harvesting intensities were run to compare the change in harvest amount. For a given harvesting pressure, scenarios with a high number of harvesters and a low harvesting frequency had the same effect as scenarios with high harvesting frequencies and a low number of harvesters.
