  1. 6. World Bank Group Engagement in Public-Private Partnerships : Strengthening Sustainable Finance in International Investment Standards

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Juridiska institutionen

    Author : Andrew Sefufan Simamora; [2023]
    Keywords : sustainable finance; international investment law; public-private partnership;

    Abstract : The prioritisation of private funds in financing public infrastructures due to limited financial resources available through the public sector has raised concerns about the protection of human rights and environment considering that the main goal of corporations is to generate as much profit as possible. The presence of the World Bank Group in the mix is to strike a balance between these competing needs by introducing the concept of sustainable finance through technical assistance and the adoption of standards that are integrated with the concept to influence the behaviour of state and non-state actors in their investment practices, especially in the developing world.

  2. 7. Pseudomonas aeruginosa gene expression analysis using pangenome and PAO1 reference genomes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatik

    Author : Yi Su; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Development in sequencing technologies has made the analyses of genetic material much more accessible. Processing sequenced data for an accurate analysis comes with its challenges, especially with the studies in microbial in clinical in vivo samples where difficulties in the collection of these samples for sequencing could lower the quality and contamination from the human host which might affect the accuracy of downstream analysis.

  3. 8. Increasing ecosystem services at an industrial area : A study applied to Rönnskärsverken

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Lisa Larsson; Petra Ljunggren; [2023]
    Keywords : Green areas; Biodiversity; Environmental regulation; Nature Based Solutions; Stormwater management;

    Abstract : What are ecosystem services, what are the possibilities to use them as a solution to remediate environmental problems, and how can they be increased in an industrial area such as Rönnskärsverken? The aim of this master thesis was to investigate the potential and the incentive for increasing ecosystem services in Rönnskärsverken’s industrial area through green areas and nature based stormwater management solutions on the site.  Ecosystem services is a concept that was put on the political agenda in the UN in 2005 in order to create a common definition and valuation to raise awareness of the values that nature provides to human beings.

  4. 9. The Potential of Combining Christian Faith and Nature Conservation : exploring the Potential in a Literature Review and Developing an Environmental Education Program for Creation Care with the Aim of Mitigating Human-Wildlife Conflicts

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Author : Svenja Tornow; [2023]
    Keywords : human-wildlife conflicts; wildlife; conservation; religion; christianity; theology; creation care; community development; awe;

    Abstract : The global human population is growing and occupies an increasing area of land. Consequently, human and wildlife populations overlap which leads to more and intensified human-wildlife conflicts. To solve those, conservationists increasingly try to understand and change people’s attitudes. READ MORE

  5. 10. Beyond Traditional Tomography: X-ray Multi-projection Imaging for Additive Manufacturing

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Maria Esther Vilar Alvarez; [2023]
    Keywords : X-ray tomography; X-ray multiprojection-imaging; deep learning; additive manufacturing; synchrotron radiation; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The main aim of this bachelor thesis is to push the limits of 3D X-ray imaging by studying the minimum number of projections required to retrieve high-quality reconstructions for additive manufacturing processes. This project first focuses on understanding how X-ray tomography works, by reconstructing additive manufacturing data already obtained (from PSI, TOMCAT beamline) using two standard reconstruction algorithms, GRIDREC and SIRT.
