  1. 16. Understanding regional renewal and industry cluster emergence processes within the Swedish periphery

    Author : Andrew Arbuthnott; Joakim Wincent; Jessica Eriksson; Peter Zettinig; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; industry emergence processes; regional renewal; industry clusters; periherial regions; Business studies; Företagsekonomi;

    Abstract : There are many insightful writings revealing that regions within industrialised nations are able to renew their local business environments through building and supporting industry clusters. Such knowledge stems from research based on how to maintain and develop successful industry clusters located within central regions. READ MORE

  2. 17. Immunological effects of isolated regional perfusion in malignant melanoma

    Author : Junko Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Melanoma; Isolated regional perfusion; ILP; IHP; Melphalan; Immunogenic cell death; T cells; Monocytes; ISG;

    Abstract : Malignant melanoma patients with metastatic disease confined to the limbs or liver may be treated with hyperthermic isolated regional perfusion with a chemotherapeutic agent, most commonly melphalan. This procedure enables much higher tissue concentrations of the chemotherapeutic agent compared with systemic administration. READ MORE

  3. 18. Sustainable Urban and Regional Development and Related Ecosystem Services and Water-Climate Interactions

    Author : Jessica Faye Page; Zahra Kalantari; Georgia Destouni; Bev Wilson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; urban planning; regional planning; sustainable cities; nature-based solutions; climate change; planning support systems; sustainable development; naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

    Abstract : To accommodate a growing global population while mitigating climate change, urban areas must grow while minimising environmental impacts. To achieve this, a city must be treated as a complex socio-ecological system in which many actors and subsystems act in unclear and unpredictable ways. READ MORE

  4. 19. Palaeoenvironmental changes in the northern boreal zone of Finland: local versus regional drivers

    Author : Shyhrete Shala; Karin H. Helmens; Christian Bigler; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Palaeolimnology; Palaeoecology; Biological assemblages; Sediment geochemistry; Regional drivers; Local drivers; Quantitative temperature reconstructions; Transfer-functions; Holocene; MIS 5d-c; Northern boreal zone; NE Finland; kvartärgeologi; Quaternary Geology;

    Abstract : Multiple proxies derived from the Lake Loitsana sediment sequence (NE Finland) are employed to determine the timing of deglaciation, characterise an early Holocene proglacial lake stage and reconstruct Holocene lake development. Local-scale processes causing shifts in biological assemblages are identified and the most likely Holocene mean July air temperature (Tjul) development is assessed. READ MORE

  5. 20. Integrated regional energy planning for islands : Development of a decision-aiding methodological framework and application

    Author : Andrew Barney; Heracles Polatidis; Stefan Ivanell; Magdalena Kuchler; Jesús Ramos-Martín; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Natural Resources and Sustainable Development; Naturresurser och hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : Clear and inclusive planning guidance for island planners seeking transitions away from traditional fossil fuel based energy systems is currently needed. At present, the guidance from the scientific community has largely been provided piecemeal and with significant focus on the specifics of single islands and, more often than not, on proposed energy systems’ techno-economics.
