  • Roads May Act As Barriers to Flying Insects: Species Composition of Bees and Wasps Differs on Two Sides of a Large Highway

Nature Conservation 18: 47–59. https://doi. org/10.3897/natureconservation.18.12314 Abstract Roads may act as barriers to animal movements, but direct barrier effects on insects have rarely been studied. In this study we collected data on bees and wasps along two sides of a large road in Sweden using yellow pan traps. We then analyzed if the species composition differed between the two sides of the road; first for the whole community, and then only for the smallest species (which typically are poorer dispers- ers). As a complement, we analyzed if different vegetation variables differed between the two sides of the road, as this may also affect differences in species composition.

  • Urban Planning in Europe: International Competition, National
    URBAN PLANNING IN EUROPE Throughout Europe there has been a major trend towards increased urban competition, national deregulation and greater private sector influence. Has this trend led to a common planning response? What is the scope for more social and sustainable planning? Urban Planning in Europe is the first book to analyse comprehensively the influences on urban planning in Europe. Urban planning is undergoing a period of transformation across Europe and the book identifies the international, national and local forces causing this change. It encompasses all countries in western and eastern Europe, providing both a comprehensive guide to the planning systems of each country, as well as detailed studies of a range of cities. The book is structured in two parts. The first outlines the forces impinging on planning in Europe at the international, national and urban level. Looking at the growing influence of the EU, a typology of countries is developed based upon legal and administrative divisions which forms the basis for presenting the similarities and differences of each country’s national planning system. Having set the broader context, the second part selects three contrasting countries—Britain, France and Sweden—and, through an analysis of the theories of urban decision-making, explores planning policies and projects in a range of cities: Birmingham, London, Paris, Lille, Malmö and Stockholm. The authors show that there is variety in urban planning due to differences in legal and administrative structures, local politics and the relative power of interest groups. These opportunities for innovation in the face of contemporary planning trends contain important lessons for the development of future European planning systems.

Detta inkluderar inte bara mänskligt avfall utan allt som tar sig in i ett avloppssystem, till exempel gråvatten, dagvatten och potentiellt farliga kemikalier från bland annat industriutsläpp. Effekterna av ett kemiskt utsläpp kan vara katastrofala om det kommer in i ett avloppsreningsverk, vilket resulterar i ineffektiv behandling av inkommande vatten under längre perioder (Söhr, 2014). Detta är ett dilemma i urbana avloppssystem – ska man låta ett kemiskt utsläpp ledas förbi ett avloppsreningsverk, eller försöka behandla hela eller en del av utsläppet och riskera att skada mikroberna i den biologiska reningsprocessen (Schütze, 2002). För att beslutsfattare och processingenjörer vid avloppsreningsverk ska kunna fatta rätt beslut om vilka åtgärder som ska vidtas vid utsläpp måste egenskaperna för det specifika avloppsnätet definieras. Syftet med detta projekt är att uppskatta transportparametrar och karakterisera utspädning i nätverket genom att utföra en serie spårningsförsök i Käppalaverkets upptagningsområde.

Civil Engineering and Urban Management (CSAMH) Bachelor of Science, 15 credits Name of track How improved rail infrastructure will affect property values in northern Stockholm. - A study in value capture and the development of public transport in the northern regions of Stockholm. Authors: Supervisors: Alexander Pikosz Hans Lind David Tiberg Stockholm 2011 Karl Kottenhoff Bachelor of Science thesis Title: How improved rail infrastructure will affect property values in northern Stockholm. Authors: Alexander Pikosz, David Tiberg Departments: Real Estate and Construction Management, Transport Science Bachelor Thesis number: 93 Supervisors: Hans Lind, Karl Kottenhoff Keywords: Public Transport, Real Estate, Polycentric, Monocentric, Property Value, Value Capture, Norrortsbanan, Urban Center, Regional Focal Point, Financing Railroad Abstract This report aims to determine the economical benefits of improved public transport in some of Stockholms northern suburbs that are strategic locations for further urbanization. The correlation between public transport (PT) and property values will be explored. How will the PT scenarios that are suggested here increase the value of real estate in the regional focal points? How can the financial winners by this improvement be prepared to take part in financing the PT solutions? Denna uppsats syftar till att fastställa de ekonomiska fördelarna av förbättrad kollektivtrafik i norra Stockholmsregionen. Det kommer att undersökas i vilken utsträckning det föreligger ett samband mellan tillgänglighet till kollektivtrafik och fastighetsvärden. Hur kan de olika kollektivtrafiklösningarna komma att påverka fastighetsvärdena i de regionala kärnorna? Hur skulle nyttotagarna av en sådan investering kunna vara med att finansiera den? 2 Acknowledgment After finishing the Bachelor thesis at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm we would like to thank all of those who have helped us in the process.
