2. 1. Efficient Electromagnetic Induction Modelling : Adaptive mesh optimisation, advanced boundary methods and iterative solution techniques

   Author : Laura M. Buntin; Thomas Kalscheuer; Gunilla Kreiss; Zhengyong Ren; Klaus Spitzer; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied geophysics; Electromagnetic theory; Numerical Modelling; Geo-Electromagnetics; Magnetotellurics; Controlled-source electromagnetics; Goal-oriented adaptive mesh refinement; Perfectly-matched layers; Iterative solution methods; Preconditioning; Geofysik med inriktning mot fasta jordens fysik; Geophysics with specialization in Solid Earth Physics;

   Abstract : Forward modelling of electromagnetic induction data simulates the electric and magnetic fields within a computational domain for a given distribution of electromagnetic material properties and a given source of the electromagnetic field. The quantities of interest are the fields at receiver locations at the Earth's surface. READ MORE

4. 2. Aerosol-cloud-radiation interactions in global climate models

   Author : Lena Frey; Frida A.-M. Bender; Gunilla Svensson; Laura Wilcox; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Aerosols; clouds; global climate models; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

   Abstract : Clouds can reflect, absorb and re-emit radiation, thereby inducing a cooling or warming effect on the climate. However, the response of clouds to a changing climate is highly uncertain and the representation of clouds in state-of-the-art climate models remains a key challenge for future climate projections.

5. 3. Modernisation and marketisation : The Chinese kindergarten in the 1990s

   Author : Limin Gu; Inger M. Andersson; Gunilla Halldén; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Chinese kindergarten; early childhood education; reform; modernisation; marketisation; structure; ideology; change; continuity; progress; conflict; differentiation; Education;

   Abstract : This is a study of changes in Chinese kindergarten education in the era of the post-Mao four modernisations. Based on fieldwork carried out in China in 1997, this thesis examined the changes of Chinese kindergarten education at two levels — changes in system (structural change) and changes in educational activities (curriculum and ideological change), especially for the period of the 1990s.

6. 4. The Social World Through Infants’ Eyes : How Infants Look at Different Social Figures

   Author : Clara A. Schmitow; Gunilla Stenberg; Gustaf Gredebäck; Annika M.D. Melinder; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; infant social looking; emotional facial expressions; experience; identity; behavior regulation; head-mounted cameras; eye-tracking; Psychology; Psykologi;

   Abstract : This thesis aims to study how infants actively look at different social figures: parents and strangers. To study infants’ looking behavior in “live” situations, new methods to record looking behavior were tested. Study 1 developed a method to record looking behavior in “live” situations: a head-mounted camera. READ MORE

7. 5. Higher Education for Girls in North American College Fiction 1886-1912

   Author : Gunilla Lindgren; Engelska; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; General and comparative literature; Vassar College; liberal-arts education for women; Jean Webster; Julia A. Schwartz; Caroline M. Fuller; Helen D. Brown; Alfred Tennyson s The Princess; education in literature; women s higher education in North America; women s education in fiction; college fiction; college girls; literature criticism; literary theory; Allmän och jämförande litteratur; litteraturkritik; litteraturteori; English language and literature; Engelska språk och litteratur ;

   Abstract : Twenty years after Vassar College welcomed the first American female undergraduates in 1865, the experiences of women college students began to be fictionalized in so-called college stories. This thesis shows how higher education is presented in the novels, collections of short stories, and serialized stories for female readers published before the United States was involved in the First World War.
