  1. 1. Geographic Labour Mobility - Causes and Consequences

    Author : Anders Boman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; geographic mobility; internal migration; job displacement; ethnic enclaves; unemployment; job search; search scope; earnings effects; gender differences; immigrants; selection;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of three self-contained chapters. The first chapter studies the causes of internal migration, the second studies the earnings effects of internal migration, and the third analyses what could be perceived as an effect of mobility but is in fact not. READ MORE

  2. 2. Internal Migration of Natives and Immigrants Following Job Displacement

    Author : Anders Boman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; internal migration; ethnic enclaves; displacement; discrete time duration; internal migration; ethnic enclaves; displacement; discrete time duration;

    Abstract : In this paper discrete-time duration analysis is used to identify differences in the internal migration of immigrants and natives following job displacement. Human capital theory presents us with two hypotheses. READ MORE

  3. 3. Particulate and gaseous emissions from residential biomass combustion

    Author : Christoffer Boman; Anders Nordin; Ingwald Obernberger; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; aerosols; air pollution; emissions; fuel pellets; residential biomass combustion; inorganic characterization; incomplete combustion; particulate matter; polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; trace elements; Kemi; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : Biomass is considered to be a sustainable energy source with significant potentials for replacing electricity and fossil fuels, not at least in the residential sector. However, present wood combustion is a major source of ambient concentrations of hydrocarbons (e.g. READ MORE

  4. 4. Template-Based fabrication of Nanostructured Materials

    Author : Anders Johansson; Mats Boman; Kornelius Nielsch; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Inorganic chemistry; Nanoparticles; nanotubes; anodic aluminium oxide; electroless deposition; ALD; Nb2O5; Prussian blue; palladium; copper; ion beam lithography; TiO2; SiO2; Oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Materials prepared on the nanoscale often exhibit many different properties compared to the same materials in their bulk-state. Interest in nanostructured materials has increased because of these properties in fields such as microelectronics, catalysis, optics and sensors. READ MORE

  5. 5. Application of fuel design to mitigate ash-related problems during combustion of biomass

    Author : Anders Rebbling; Christoffer Boman; Dan Boström; Marcus Öhman; Nils Skoglund; Sonja Enestam; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermochemical energy conversion; biomass; combustion; ash chemistry; fuel design; ash transformation reactions; renewable energy;

    Abstract : The energy supply of today is, through the use of fossil energy carriers,contributing to increased net emissions of greenhouse gases. This hasseveral negative effects on our environment and our climate. In order toreduce the impact of this, and possibly to reverse some of the effects, allrenewable energy sources must be used.
