It is based on the reports provided by the case study expert for each showcase (Annex 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5), considered in the context of contemporary thinking about urban agriculture (UA) in developed countries. The report is presented in three parts: • Part 1 provides an overview of the European and Chinese showcases and outlines the methodology used. • Part 2 is the most substantial component and focuses on the four central concepts of the SiEUGreen project - land use, food security, resource efficiency and societal inclusion. It synthesizes data from the case study reports, incorporating academic literature as relevant. Comparative national-level data is also presented for food security and resource efficiency. The analysis is structured around the expected impacts set out in the project proposal, as relevant to each pillar. • Part 3 provides a concise summary of the findings from the maps of quantitative and qualitative data for each of the showcase locations before laying out a preliminary data collection strategy to inform the work undertaken in WP1 for the remainder of the SiEUGreen project. 3 Table of Contents Technical References............................................................................................................. 2 Executive Summary ............................................................................................................... 3 Table of Contents .................................................................................................................. 4 List of Figures ........................................................................................................................ 5 List of Tables ......................................................................................................................... 6 List of Images ........................................................................................................................ 7 Part 1.

ABSTRACT THE ORIGIN, DEVELOPMENT, AND HISTORY OF THE NORWEGIAN SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH FROM THE 1840s TO 1887 by Bjorgvin Martin Hjelvik Snorrason Adviser: Jerry Moon ABSTRACT OF GRADUATE STUDENT RESEARCH Dissertation Andrews University Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary Title: THE ORIGIN, DEVELOPMENT, AND HISTORY OF THE NORWEGIAN SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH FROM THE 1840s TO 1887 Name of researcher: Bjorgvin Martin Hjelvik Snorrason Name and degree of faculty adviser: Jerry Moon, Ph.D. Date completed: July 2010 This dissertation reconstructs chronologically the history of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Norway from the Haugian Pietist revival in the early 1800s to the establishment of the first Seventh-day Adventist Conference in Norway in 1887. The present study has been based as far as possible on primary sources such as protocols, letters, legal documents, and articles in journals, magazines, and newspapers from the nineteenth century. A contextual-comparative approach was employed to evaluate the objectivity of a given source. Secondary sources have also been consulted for interpretation and as corroborating evidence, especially when no primary sources were available. The study concludes that the Pietist revival ignited by the Norwegian Lutheran lay preacher, Hans Nielsen Hauge (1771-1824), represented the culmination of the sixteenth- century Reformation in Norway, and the forerunner of the Adventist movement in that country.

Changsha is a highly industrialized city in Hunan Province, China, where the water quality is of great importance to the development of economy and environment in this area. We have analyzed the characteristics of ammonia nitrogen in the Xiang River in Changsha from 2016 to 2019. The results showed that in the main stem, concentrations of ammonia nitrogen were very low and reached the third water quality level. In the six tributaries, concentrations of ammonia nitrogen have increased, especially in Longwanggang and Liuyang River, where the latter of which has a large number of industries and domestic sewage. Correlations between monthly precipitation and ammonia nitrogen concentrations were negative, besides two sites Jinjiang and Juzizhou, indicating that in most rivers, ammonia nitrogen contents had been diluted by rainfall. In general, concentrations and fluxes of ammonia nitrogen have decreased significantly during this time period, suggesting that water environment has improved greatly under the series of the clean motions by the local government. 1 Introduction nitrogen in streamflow and to identify the potential pollution in the Xiang River basin in Changsha. Changsha city, which is located in Hunan province, includes both rural and highly industrialized urban areas.

  • Veiledning Til Innføring Av Justert Ordning for Hovedgudstjenesten
    DEN NORSKE KIRKE Borg biskop Kroer, Nordby og Ås sokneprest Jan Kay Krystad Postboks 224 1431 ÅS Dato: 07.02.2020 Vår ref: 19/02528-2 Deres ref: Veiledning til innføring av justert ordning for hovedgudstjenesten Kirkemøtet vedtok i 2017 ny liturgisk musikk og i 2019 justert liturgi for hovedgudstjenesten. Alle menighetsråd skal ha vedtatt en justert ordning for hovedgudstjenesten som skal tas i bruk 1.søndag i advent 2020. Bakgrunn Kirkemøtet vedtok i 2011 ordning for hovedgudstjeneste som ble tatt i bruk i Den norske kirke innen utgangen av 2012. Kirkemøtet vedtok også at det skulle legges til rette for erfaringsdeling med sikte på justeringer og korrigeringen av den vedtatte ordningen (KM 4/10). I perioden 2012-2018 har det vært gjennomført flere forskningsprosjekter og omfattende erfaringsinnhenting med sikte på justering. En av utfordringene som har blitt avdekket er at den store liturgiske valgfriheten og de mange alternativene til liturgisk musikk har bidratt til at mange har opplevd seg fremmedgjort når de går til gudstjeneste. Kirkemøtets vedtak i 2017 og 2019 strammer inn valgfriheten. Samtidig videreføres og styrkes fleksibiliteten på andre områder, blant annet når det gjelder bønner, forbønn og nattverdordninger. Den justerte ordningen for hovedgudstjenesten legger samlet sett større vekt på trygghet og gjenkjennelse for å ivareta mulighetene for en god involvering av alle som samles til gudstjeneste. Noen av endringene i liturgien som menighetsrådene nå skal vedta er blant annet følgende: - Menigheten skal stå under inngangssalme, hilsen og utgangssalme. - Samlingsbønn med kirkeårsvariable ledd er obligatorisk. - Hallelujaomkved før evangelielesningen blir obligatorisk. - Et tydeligere skille mellom forbønn og bønnevandring.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract : More than 1100 complete or fragmentary imported vessels in bronze, glass, wood, horn, clay and silver from the first millennium A.D. have been found in Norway, approximately 80% of them in graves. The extensive research already carried out has produced a vast body of literature, which generally keeps within strict chronological boundaries, concentrating on vessels from either the Roman Period, the Migration Period, or the Viking Age. Two main approaches to the material have traditionally been applied: 1) typo­ logical studies, on the basis of which trade connections and systems have been discussed from different theoretical perspectives, and 2) imports as status markers, from which hierarchical social systems of a general kind have been inferred. Only very rarely have their function as vessels attracted any serious consideration, and even more rarely their actual local context.

Based on these analysis, the evolution trend of water resources and water environment in the Xiangjiang River basin is further forecasted. The results show that the annual runoff of the upper reaches of the Xiangjiang River basin tends to be stable, and the runoff of the middle and lower reaches is decreasing. The water quality of the Xiangjiang River basin got deteriorated from 1996 to 2010.

  • Spatial Distribution and Health Risk Assessment of Dissolved Trace
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Spatial Distribution and Health Risk Assessment of Dissolved Trace Elements in Groundwater in southern China Congke Gu1,2, Yan Zhang3, Yu Peng1,2, Peifang Leng1,2, Nong Zhu1, Yunfeng Qiao1,2, Zhao Li1,2 & Fadong Li1,2 ✉ To understand the groundwater environmental quality and the impact of trace elements in the construction of urban agglomeration in China, this study collected 58 groundwater samples from the core area of the Chang-Zhu-Tan urban agglomeration (Changsha, Zhuzhou, Xiangtan) and quantitatively analyzed the content of 13 dissolved trace element and their spatial distribution characteristics. The health risk assessment model was further used to evaluate the human health risk caused by trace element pollution in groundwater. It was observed that Ba had the highest average concentration (0.28 mg·L−1), whereas Cd had the lowest (2.1 × 10−5 mg·L−1). Compared with China’s groundwater environmental quality standard, the exceeding rates of Se, Mn, Zn, and Ni concentrations were 37.93%, 17.24%, 1.72% and 1.72%, respectively. Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mo, and Pb did not exceed the corresponding standards. The 13 trace elements were distributed in a scattered pattern in space and the trace elements in both banks of the Xiang River, Zhuzhou, Weishui River and surrounding areas were relatively high. Health risk assessments showed that the carcinogenic risk values of Cd, Cr, and Pb and the health risk values of 10 non-carcinogenic elements were less than the corresponding maximum acceptable risk level. The health risks associated with non-carcinogenic substances through ingestion were higher than those associated with dermal absorption.
