   Abstract : The inevitable gap between needs and resources in health care, together with the problems associated with a market solution, necessitates priority setting. The aims of this thesis are associated with the process of priority setting in health care, and are divided into three issues:1. READ MORE

5. 18. Photochemical alterations of dissolved organic matter : Impact on heterotrophic bacteria and carbon cycling in lakes

   Author : Stefan Bertilsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

   Abstract : Globally, the amount of carbon in dissolved organic matter (DOM) is similar to the total amount in the atmosphere. DOM also plays a key role in structuring natural surface waters and affects the physical, chemical, and biological character of these systems. READ MORE

The purpose of the thesis is to study the processes by which medical technology is developed imd disseminated. READ MORE

7. 20. Size and dynamics of active soil organic matter fraction as influenced by soil management

   Author : Torben Bonde; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

   Abstract : The determination of what has been termed an "active fraction" of soil organic matter (SOM) and the effect of management on the size and turnover of this fraction are the leading themes in the present thesis. The techniques employed to study the amount and turnover of this fraction include: long-term mineralization-incubations for determination of potentially mineralizable carbon (Co) and nitrogen (No), fumigation-incubation for determination of microbial biomass-C and N, and istotope techniques using 13C and 15N for determination of the dynamics of soil C and N.
