A crucial goal in climate research is to better understand the mechanisms of observed climate variability and change to assess the relative roles of internal variability and external forcing variations in explaining observed changes in the climate system.
This project, "The Fruits of Labor", asks the question of whether a healthy work life can postpone (i.e. prolong the third age), compress, and/or eliminate the fourth age? Or will adverse working conditions accumulate over the work life and instead expand the fourth age?
How do vital partnerships between organisms form in the ocean? This project investigates how microalgae and nitrogen-fixing bacteria establish symbiotic relationships that supply marine ecosystems with new nitrogen and help sustain ocean productivity.
Research project that examines how Scandinavian countries investigate and prosecute international crimes within their national legal systems.
This research project studies the herring spawning activity in the Stockholm Archepelgo in relation to population structure and integrity, by measuring the density of herring larvae during the spawning period.
The BalticHER-project studies the population structure of locally spawning herring on the Swedish east coast. The study will evaluate by cross-checking genetical and otolith chemistry methods whether natal homing is a population structuring mechanism.
Fluorinated chemicals, including PFAS, are vital for lithium-ion batteries but can harm health and the environment. As Europe ramps up battery production and recycling, the FreeLIB project will identify risky fluorinated emissions, assess their impacts, and develop safer recycling practices to protect people and nature.
Examining those in power, and exposing abuses of power, are primary missions of journalism. Therefore, the subjects of critical scrutiny as well as the methods used for investigative journalism are recurring themes in JMK’s research.
The changing balance between public service provision, cash benefits and employment in Europe.
Investor attention is an important determinant of market activity and investor performance.
Disentangling Municipal Patterns of Declining Social Assistance Recipiency in Early 2020s Sweden
This project aims to lay the foundation for studying cognitive processes in interpreting dialogues. The research questions concern the nature of the interpreter’s cognitive resources, more specifically, the function of the monitoring processes as compared to other types of interpreting and the strategies applied to cope with cognitive load.
Japanese early modern picturebooks, kusazōshi (late 18th/early 19th cent.) and modern graphic narratives, manga (late 20th/early 21st cent.) are brought into dialogue with respect to their participatory, performative, and media-ecological potential.
My current research focus is on developing methods for chemical characterization of the organic composition of particulate matter which encompasses coupled chromatographic techniques for target analysis of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs), and nontarget analytical workflows using high-resolution mass spectrometry.
iQ2300 aims at a multi-disciplinary approach to the terrestrial and marine responses of the Queen Maud Land margin, one of the most vulnerable parts of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet, across geological (>10³ yr), historical (10² yr), and recent (<10¹ yr) timescales.
The immense complexity of the brain emerges from its vast connectivity and cell type diversity. We study the diversity of neuromodulatory neurons and circuits in the brain. By using a combination of molecular and system neuroscience tools to visualize, record and manipulate neural populations, we aim to understand their particular contribution to behavior.
Relics have played an important but contested role throughout Islamic history. This project explores how objects and places associated with the Prophet Muhammad and other sacred figures have been used to establish, challenge and legitimise religious and political authority.
Islamic Studies at Stockholm University is a humanities-based field of research within the History of Religions. Our research approaches Islam as a historical, living and changing religious tradition, from its early history to the present. A central concern is how Islam has been interpreted, practised and transformed in different historical, social, political and cultural contexts.
We address three questions: (1) Does the RUT reform contribute to increase employment among immigrants? (2) Does the RUT industry provide a stepping stone into more advanced and better paid jobs or a trap for low skilled in low paid professions? (3) Does RUT stimulate immigrants to start their own firms or attain managerial positions?
