  1. 1. How do we get everybody at the table? Enhancing diversity in multi-stakeholder processes for landscape restoration.

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för strategisk hållbar utveckling

    Author : Ilse Hoekstra; Valentina Abalzati; Amanda Lanham; Paula Carramashi-Gabriel; [2022]
    Keywords : Diversity; Resilience; Landscape Restoration; Historically Absent Groups; Multi-Stakeholder Process;

    Abstract : Global ecosystem degradation challenging ecological and social thresholds demands urgent responses that address systemically the complex interrelationships between humans and nature. To improve the adaptive capacity of the social systems and strengthen its resilience to respond to external challenges affecting landscapes, multi-stakeholder approaches for landscape restoration involving diverse actors expressing different perspectives are important.

  3. 2. Adaptive Frequency Resolution for Downlink Beamforming in 5G NR

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Johanna Bengtsson; [2021]
    Keywords : beamforming; MIMO; 5G; 5G NR; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : As the demand for higher data rates and lower latencies increase, together with the use of higher frequency bands, MIMO and beamforming have become an essential part of the 5G NR technology. Calculating the beamforming weights is a costly process, and reducing the frequency resolution of the weight calculations would save a significant amount of computational power. READ MORE

  4. 3. A Phantom Based Comparison of Image Segmentation Algorithms for Adaptive Functional Volume Determination of the Thyroid Gland using SPECT

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Henrik Berg; [2021]
    Keywords : Hyperthyroidism; Nuclear Medicine; SPECT; Functional Volume; Phantom Study; Adaptive Image Segmentation; Thresholding; Region Growing;

    Abstract : Background One of the most used treatments for hyperthyroidism, is therapy with radioactive iodine (131I), which is accumulated in the thyroid gland. To determine the activity of 131I to be administered for a certain absorbed dose, the volume of the gland is of great importance but the historically used methods for estimating the functional volume of the gland are based on large approximations.

  5. 4. Insights from a panarchy approach to the resilience of a social-ecological system: the case of La Marjaleria (Castelló, Spain)

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Marc Escamilla Nacher; [2020]
    Keywords : Sustainable Development; Resilience; Social-Ecological Systems; Panarchy; Spain; Flood Risk;

    Abstract : The idea of evolutionary resilience in complex systems has gained attention in the recent years. This approach provides better insights in the context of emergence and adaptive capacity, that characterises complex adaptive systems (CAS) such as social-ecological systems (SES), than traditional reductionist and engineering resilience approaches.

  6. 5. Resilience and Adaptivity of EU Pesticides Law - Assessing Theory and Legal Capacity

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Juridiska institutionen

    Author : Henrik Jansson; [2019-08-09]
    Keywords : pesticides; agriculture; resilience; EU law; adaptive law;

    Abstract : The utilisation of pesticides within agriculture may contribute to a transgression of the ecological boundaries of the Earth. However, pesticides play an essential role in sustaining human welfare by providing food security. READ MORE
