2. 1. Aeolian dunes of central Sweden

   Author : Martin Bernhardson; Kvartärgeologi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Aeolian deposits; Inland dune; LiDAR; Digital elevation model; GIS; Luminescence dating; Holocene; Sweden;

   Abstract : In the Swedish inland there are aeolian deposits present, ranging from scattered single dunes to dune fields of more than 10 km2. These dune fields often pass unnoticed since they presently are covered by vegetation. However, they contain a rich palaeoenvironmental archive. READ MORE

4. 2. Essays on Wage and Price Formation in Sweden

   Author : Kent Friberg; Eskil Wadensjö; Henry Ohlsson; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; wages; prices; sectoral wage linkages; real wage determination; vector error correction models; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

   Abstract : Study IReal Wage Determination in the Swedish Engineering IndustryThis study uses the monopoly union model to examine the determination of real wages and in particular the effects of active labour market programmes (ALMPs) on real wages in the engineering industry. Quarterly data for the period 1970:1 to 1996:4 are used in a cointegration framework, utilising the Johansen's maximum likelihood procedure. READ MORE

5. 3. Late Holocene humidity variability in central Sweden

   Author : Sofia Andersson; Stefan Wastegård; Gunhild Rosqvist; Kristian Schoning; Frank Chambers; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; humidity change; stable isotopes; Chara spp; Pisidium spp; testate amoebae assemblages; humification; C N ratio; late Holocene; central Sweden; Quaternary geology; Kvartärgeologi; kvartärgeologi; Quarternary Geology;

   Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to reconstruct humidity variability in central Sweden during the late Holocene. A multi-proxy approach was used to infer humidity changes as recorded in a lake and a mire. Age-models were constructed based on radiocarbon dating and the Askja-1875 tephra. READ MORE

6. 4. Holocene Climate in Central and Southern Sweden : Quantitative Reconstructions from Fossil Data

   Author : Karin Antonsson; Keith Bennett; Heikki Seppä; Andy Lotter; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Quaternary geology; pollen analysis; climate reconstructions; transfer functions; vegetation dynamics; Sweden; Kvartärgeologi;

   Abstract : In quantitative palaeoecology modern species-environmental relationships can be statistically modelled, and recent development has made the calibration models more statistically robust. These models are used to transform fossil assemblages to quantitative estimates of past environmental conditions. READ MORE

7. 5. Burial textiles : Textile bits and pieces in central Sweden, AD 500–800

   Author : Anita Malmius; Birgit Arrhenius; Kerstin Lidén; Gunilla Eriksson; Eva Andersson Strand; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; textiles; boat-graves; Merovingian Period; Vendel; Valsgärde; Birka; elite burials; archaeology; Sweden; Migration Period; Archaeological Science; laborativ arkeologi;

   Abstract : This thesis concerns the role and use of archaeological textiles (AT) deposited in inhumation and cremation burials in Sweden dating from 500–800 AD. The AT are studied in their burial context, including all other grave goods, emphasizing that they were as important as a source for understanding society in prehistory as they are today. READ MORE
