    Abstract : The CEO departure is an important mechanism in corporate governance. It is by using this mechanism that boards of directors may discipline management. This study examines departures in the governance of large Swedish corporations.The study builds on three kinds of data. READ MORE

  4. 2. Stopover behaviour in migratory songbirds: timing, orientation and departures

    Author : Sissel Sjöberg; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; flight duration; orientation; departure timing; stopover behaviour; stopover duration; flight behaviour; reverse migration; route choice; compass calibration; passerines; Bird migration;

    Abstract : Songbird migrants use stopovers between flight bouts to rest and refuel for the upcoming flights. Behaviours affecting where, when and how long to stay at stopover sites will affect how successful the overall migration will be, which has significant consequences for the overall fitness and mortality of the birds.

  7. 5. On the Chemical Composition of Metal-Poor Stars : Impact of Stellar Granulation and Departures from Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium on the Formation of Spectral Lines

    Author : Remo Collet; Bengt Gustafsson; Martin Asplund; Roger Cayrel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Astronomy; late-type stars; stellar abundances; stellar atmospheres; spectral line formation; convection; hydrodynamics; Galactic chemical evolution; Astronomi;

    Abstract : The information about the chemical compositions of stars is encoded in their spectra. Accurate determinations of these compositions are crucial for our understanding of stellar nucleosynthesis and Galactic chemical evolution. READ MORE
