2. 16. Housing finance methods in urban Tanzania : The case of households in Kinondoni Municipality, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

   Author : Egino Millanzi; Mats Wilhelmsson; Agnes Mwasumbi; Washington H.A. Olima; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Housing finance; finance methods; finance system; urban development; Bostadsfinansiering; finansieringsmetoder; finanssystem; stadsutveckling; Fastigheter och byggande; Real Estate and Construction Management;

   Abstract : Effective housing finance methods require the interrelationships between the housing finance system components such as banking and capital markets, land registry, the housing sector, and macroeconomic and socioeconomic aspects. Nonetheless, despite the exclusion of the majority of the households by formal long-term housing finance methods, Tanzania has experienced substantial improvement in housing development in the last two decades.

4. 17. Incorporation and preservation of geochemical fingerprints in peat archives

   Author : Sophia V. Hansson; Richard Bindler; Dominik Weiss; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Peat; Beryllium; bulk density; C N-ratio; decomposition; deposition; downwash; elemental mobility; geochemistry; humification; lead; light transmission; mercury; peat accumulation; precipitation; Environmental Science; miljövetenskap;

   Abstract : The present status of the environment, including environmental problems such as heavy metal accumulation in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, is in part the consequence of long-term changes. Cores from peatlands and other natural archives provide us with the potential to study aspects of the atmospheric cycling of elements, such as metal pollutants, on timescales much longer than the decade or two available to us with atmospheric deposition monitoring programs.

5. 18. Studies of moisture and alkalinity in self-levelling flooring compounds

   Author : Anders Anderberg; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; alkalinity; SLC; floor screed; moisture transport; self-levelling flooring compound; Material technology; diffusion coefficient; materialteknik; Materiallära; secondary emissions; sorption isotherm;

   Abstract : In recent decades there has been an increasing interest in the indoor environment and its connections with public health. One important topic discussed has been the relation between the moisture in buildings and health. Cementitious materials, when cast, contain excess water since this is necessary for workability and for flow properties. READ MORE

   Abstract : This thesis consists of four self-contained essays.Essay 1 compares the dynamic behaviour of an estimated New Keynesian sticky-price model with one-period delayed effects of monetary policy shocks to the dynamics of a structural vector autoregression model. The model is estimated with Bayesian techniques on German pre-EMU data. READ MORE

7. 20. Survival patterns and density-dependent processes in breeding mallards Anas platyrhynchos

   Abstract : Measuring and assessing vital rates such as births and deaths are prerequisites for understanding population dynamics. Vital rates may be affected by the density of individuals, even though the importance of density dependence on population dynamics has been debated for a long time. READ MORE
