"Låt oss vandra i det landskap vi har" : Förlust, hopp och platsbundenhet i Kerstin Ekmans och Terry Tempest Williams naturessäer

Niklasson, Malin January 2016 (has links)
The aim of this study is to study how the themes of loss, hope and place attachment is presented in relation to the concept of ecoglobalist affects in the contemporary nature writing of Swedish author Kerstin Ekman and American author Terry Tempest Williams. I have performed a comparative close reading of three works per author and discussed them in relation to the definitions of nature writing and ecoglobalist affects by Lawrence Buell and the definition of place attachment as a psychological process by Leila Scannell and Robert Gifford. I have found that all of the texts are clear cases of environmentally oriented literature, that the depictions of loss, hope and place attachment are very similar and that while Ekman focuses on the lack of general public knowledge and mostly refrains from dissolving boundaries between the self and the environment, Williams focuses more on the latter. I also found that while examples of ecoglobalist affects could be read in works by both authors in different ways, they were not present in all of the texts. / Syftet med denna studie är att studera hur förlust, hopp och platsbundenhet presenteras som teman i relation till begreppet ecoglobalist affects i Kerstin Ekmans och Terry Tempest Williams naturessäer. Jag har genomfört en komparativ närläsning av tre verk per författare och diskuterat dem i relation till Lawrence Buells definition av nature writing och ecoglobalist affects, samt Leila Scannells och Robert Giffords definition av platsbundenhet som psykologisk process. Studien fann att samtliga av texterna är klara exempel på miljöorienterad litteratur, att skildringarna av förlust, hopp och platsbundenhet har många likheter samt att Ekmans essäer fokuserar på allmän kunskapsbrist och mestadels avstår från att upplösa gränser mellan jaget och den icke-mänskliga naturen, medan Williams fokuserar mer på det sistnämnda. Jag fann även att ecoglobalist affects kunde läsas i verk av båda författarna, men inte i samtliga av de undersökta texterna.

Estudo dos efeitos de variações do vento no sistema de ressurgência ao longo da costa peruana através da análise de dados e modelagem numérica / Study of the wind variation effects in the upwelling system along the Peruvian Coast through data analysis and numerical modeling

Aguirre, Enrique Eduardo Lizardo Huaringa 06 July 2007 (has links)
O presente trabalho teve como finalidade estudar os efeitos das variações do vento resultantes de ocorrências do fenômeno El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) nos padrões da circulação superficial ao longo da costa peruana, através da análise de dados observados e de modelagem numérica. É enfocado o período 1991-2000, quando ocorreram fortes eventos La Niña (1996-97, 1998-2000) e El Niño (1997- 98). Esses eventos tiveram fortes impactos em escala global mas muito pouco se sabe sobre os impactos locais na estrutura da termoclina e no ciclo da dinâmica de Ekman ao longo da costa peruana. Os dados analisados no presente estudo foram dados coletados em duas radiais ao longo das latitudes 5 S e 15 S. O modelo oceânico utilizado foi o Modelo da Universidade de Princeton (Princeton Ocean Model-POM). As simulações numéricas foram forçadas com produtos de vento relativos ao período 1991-2000. Essas simulações reproduziram satisfatoriamente os padrões médios da circulação na região de estudo, confirmando que nas áreas próximas da costa o vento é o principal mecanismo gerador de ressurgência ou subsidência. Os resultados mostraram que durante a ocorrência do forte evento El Niño 1997-1998, nas radiais de 5 S e 15 S, houve uma drástica alteração do sistema de ressurgência costeira em resposta às variações do vento. / The objective of the present work was to study the effects of variability in the wind due to the El Niño-Southern Oscillation events in the surface circulation patterns of the Peruvian coast, by means of data analysis and numerical modeling. It is focused the period 1991-2000, when it was observed strong La Niña (1996-1997, 1998-2000) and El Niño events (1997-98). These events had strong effects worlwide but very little is known on the local impacts on the circulation, thermocline structure and the Ekman dynamics of the Peruvian coast. The data analysed in the present study were collected on transects along 5 S and 15 S. The model used was an implementation of the Princeton Ocean Model (POM). The numerical simulations were forced with wind products relative to the period of interest (1991-2000). The simulations reproduced satisfactorily the mean circulation patterns in the study area, confirming that the in the nearshore region the wind is the main driving mechanism for coastal upwelling/downwelling. The results show that during the strong 1997-1998 El Niño, a drastic alteration of the coastal upwelling system ocurred in response to the changes in the wind.

Könsmaktsordningen, fortfarande ett problem idagens medier? : Semiotisk bild- och textanalys av livsstilsmagasinen Veckorevyns och Café 2017

Nilsson, Alexandra January 2018 (has links)
Livsstilsmagasinen Café och Veckorevyn sägs fungera som inspiration för läsaren till att förbättra sitt liv och illustrera hur kvinnor och män ska se ut och vara. Idealet som tidningarna bygger upp i bild och text är däremot endast en normativ värdering av hur kvinnor och män bör vara. utifrån det samhälle som vi lever i idag - ett samhälle där vår vardag präglas av olika stereotypa ideal, där det skapats ett “vi och dom tänk”. Det är dessa bilder som ses återkommande i det virtuella medielandskapet, som uppvisar en begränsad syn av kvinnor och män, vilket ger upphov till gruppering bland individer. Uppsatsen behandlar hur bilden av kvinnligt och manligt återskapas utefter de normer som redan existerar. De livsstilsmagasin som användes till studien representerar genus och könsmaktsordningen och studiens material består av 13 stycken omslagsbilder från de två ledande livsstilsmagasinen i Sverige. Bilden av kvinnligt och manligt och det som kallas könsmaktsordning grundar sig på ett västerländskt synsätt att se på ideal och resultatet vill hur pass tydligt detta förekommer och även påvisa att om idealet bevarats i detta material också förespråkar en enhetlig och normativ bild av kön. Syftet med denna uppsats är att genom semiotisk bildanalys titta på hur Veckorevyns och Cafés omslagsbilder under 2017 och januari 2018 upprätthåller könsmaktsordningen.

\"Estrutura tridimensional das correntes geradas pelo vento na Plataforma Continental da região sul do Brasil\" / Tridimensional structure of the wind-driven currents over southern Brazil continental shelf

Renato Oliveira Cecílio 12 December 2006 (has links)
Um modelo numérico tridimensional foi adaptado para o estudo da circulação gerada pelo vento sobre a plataforma continental da Região Sul do Brasil durante o verão e o outono. O modelo oceânico de Princeton (POM) é usado em um domínio limitado com grade curvilínea de alta-resolução, além de linha de costa e batimetria realísticas. As forçantes são variáveis no tempo e incluem tensão de cisalhamento do vento, descarga fluvial, campos termohalinos e nível médio do mar. Os objetivos são simular a resposta da plataforma a estas forçantes, comparar os resultados do modelo com observações oceanográficas afim de estabelecer a confiança do modelo, e subseqüentemente analisar os campos resultantes para ajudar na compreensão do comportamento da circulação observada. As variáveis do modelo mostram boa concordância geral com as correspondentes observações. É encontrado um claro padrão sazonal da circulação gerada pelo vento sobre a plataforma, com fluxos de superfície para sul e para o largo durante o verão, resultando em ressurgência de águas frias de fundo, e para norte e para a costa durante o outono, resultando em subsidência de águas menos densas. Tal circulação aumenta a estabilidade vertical no verão, devido ao aquecimento de superfície e ressurgência de águas frias, e aumenta a mistura vertical e a homogeneidade vertical no outono, devido à subsidência de águas menos densas, a qual causa forte aceleração da pluma fluvial existente na plataforma interna. Os resultados também demonstram que os cabos e promontórios da Região Sul do Brasil desempenham papel fundamental na variabilidade ao longo da costa do fluxo de ressurgência, incluindo o estabelecimento de jatos costeiros baroclínicos, os quais tendem a se separar da costa ao sul de cabos, mostrando uma circulação tridimensional de ressurgência, com complexa dependência espaço-temporal. Durante o outono, o empilhamento de subsidência, somado à presença da pluma fluvial, estabelece uma corrente costeira barotrópica, chamada aqui de \'\'Corrente Costeira de Rio Grande\'\', causando a intrusão de águas frias a partir do sul para a plataforma continental brasileira. A avaliação dos campos de velocidade mostra que o transporte de Ekman pleno se desenvolve na região ao largo das frentes de ressurgência ou subsidência, deixando em direção à costa uma zona dominada por fricção, com estratificação e velocidades perpendiculares fracas. Esta região é denominada aqui de \'\'plataforma interna\'\' e se estende da costa até a isóbata de 30m no verão e até a isóbata de 45m no outono, com esta variação resultando de variações na profundidade da camada de Ekman. / A three-dimensional numerical model has been adapted for the study of the wind-driven flow on the continental shelf off southern Brazil during the summer and autumn seasons. The Princeton Ocean Model (POM) is used in a limited area domain with a high-resolution (eddy resolving) curvilinear grid, with realistic coastline and bottom topography. The forcings include time-varying wind stress, termohaline fields, fluvial discharges and mean sea level. The objectives of the study are to simulate the response of the shelf circulation to these forcings, to compare model results with oceanographic observations, to stablish the model confidence, and to subsequently analyse the model fields a contribution to understand the behavior of the observed flow. The model variables show overall good agreement with corresponding observations. It is found a clear seasonal pattern of wind-driven circulation over the shelf, with surface offshore and southward net flow during summertime, which results in bottom cold water upwelling, and onshore and northward net flow during autumntime, which results in less dense water downwelling. This circulation enhances vertical stability in summer, due to solar surface heating and cold water bottom upwelling, and enhances vertical mixing and unstratified conditions in autumn due to downwelling of less dense water, which causes strong downwind acceleration of river plume innershelf waters. The results also demonstrate that coastal capes and promontories play a dominant role in causing alongshore variability of the upwelling flow over southern Brazil, including the setup of alongshore coastal baroclinic jets, which tend to separate from the coast south of capes, showing a three-dimensional upwelling circulation, with complex time and space dependence. During autumntime, the downwelling wind setup, in addition to the river plume waters, set up a barotropic coastal current, named here \'\'Rio Grande Coastal Current\'\', causing the intrusion of southern colder water over the Brazilian shelf. The evaluation of velocity fields shows that full Ekman transport develops in the region offshore of the upwelling or downwelling fronts, leaving onshore a region dominated by friction with relatively weak stratification and cross-shore currents. This region is named here \'\'innershelf\'\' and extends seaward from the coast until the 30m isobath in summer and the 45m isobath in autumn, showing this seasonal variation due to Ekman layer depth variations.

Solução semianalítica para o perfil vertical do vento na camada limite planetária / A semi-analytical solution for the vertical wind profile in the atmospheric boundary layer

Buligon, Lidiane 04 August 2009 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / In the present study, using the Generalized Integral Transform Technique (GITT), we derive a semi-analytical solution of the Navier-Stokes equation to obtain the mean wind profile in the atmospheric boundary layer. The technique combines series expansion and an integration employing an inverse-transform pair. The PBL is discretized into N sub-intervals in such manner that inside each sub-region the eddy diffusivity is the average value, this allows the use of realistic eddy diffusivity profiles, which depend on the physical characteristics of the energy-containing eddies. The nonlinear terms are written in terms of kinematical properties of the flow, such as divergence and vorticity, allowing the solutions to be interpreted in terms of large-scale synoptic conditions. The model results are compared to observed wind profiles obtained from the classical Wangara experiment. In addition, the results obtained by the proposed model are compared with the unidimensional model solved by the method of discretization, the model of two layers, with the logarithmic law and the Ekman model. The method used was efficient for the problem studied, since it has presented results consistent with those available in literature. / No presente estudo, usando a Técnica da Transformada Integral Generalizada (GITT), deriva-se uma solução semianalítica para as Equações de Navier-Stokes aplicada à Camada Limite Planetária (CLP). A técnica combina uma expansão em série com uma integração por meio de um par de transformada-inversa. A CLP é discretizada em N subintervalos de maneira que, dentro de cada sub-região, os coeficientes de difusão assumam valores médios, o que nos permite utilizar perfis mais realísticos para o coeficiente de difusão e que dependem das características dos turbilhões mais energéticos. Os termos não-lineares são escritos em função das propriedades cinemáticas do escoamento, como divergência e vorticidade, permitindo que a solução seja interpretada em termos das condições sinóticas de grande escala. O desempenho do modelo estudado foi comparado com dados experimentais de vento medidos durante os experimentos de Wangara. Adicionalmente, os resultados obtidos através do modelo proposto são comparados com o modelo unidimensional resolvido pelo método de discretização, com o modelo de duas camadas, com a Lei Logarítmica e com o modelo de Ekman. O método empregado mostrou-se eficiente para o problema estudado, uma vez que apresentou resultados coerentes com os disponíveis na literatura.

Hasse Ekman : a question of authorship in a national context

Gustafsson, Fredrik January 2013 (has links)
This thesis takes a historical approach to its subject and focuses on Swedish cinema of the 1940s and 1950s. The thesis argues that Swedish cinema experienced a renaissance in the 1940s, lasting approximately from 1940 to 1953. It further suggests that one of the most important filmmakers in this renaissance was Hasse Ekman. By focussing upon Ekman and this renaissance, a much-needed contextualisation of Ingmar Bergman will be achieved. Ingmar Bergman is one of the most well-known and well-researched filmmakers of all time, but there are still gaps in the material surrounding him, and one such gap concerns his cinematic origins. Bergman was a part of the 1940s renaissance, during which Bergman worked with, and was influenced by, other filmmakers and in particular Ekman. The thesis is divided into three parts. The first part introduces the relevant literature and discusses ideas of authorship and national cinema. It also provides a historic overview of Swedish society and cinema during the 1940s and 1950s, providing the context needed to better understand the films of Ekman, and Bergman too. This part also looks at the 1930s to illustrate what came before this renaissance, and how the films of the 1940s differed from what had gone before. The second part is a chronological overview of Ekman's career from the late-1930s to his move to Spain in 1964. The last part is a discussion of Ekman's relation to Swedish society and his view of the world, based on close textual readings of his films. The aim of the thesis is to present, for the first time, a coherent and extensive overview of Ekman's career and body of work, while also situating it in the specific context in which it emerged, thereby shedding new light on an important, though neglected, episode in cinema history.

”Genusteorier och radikal ideologi maskerad som vetenskap” : En diskursteoretisk analys av förståelser av genusvetenskap i Genusdoktrinen och Om könets existens.

Erlandsson, Rikard January 2022 (has links)
Under de senaste decennierna har en antigenusrörelse etablerats på allvar i Europa. En rörelse som motarbetar genusvetenskap och jämställdhetsarbete. I Sverige har vi hittills sett relativt lite av denna rörelse. Nu formulerar sig kritiken mot genusvetenskapen även i Sverige. Ordet genusdoktrin fogas till det engelska genderism och tyska Genderismus som beteckning på en konspiration mot samhället och dess institutioner. I denna uppsats har jag genomfört en diskursanalys av Ivar Arpi och Anna-Karin Wyndhamns bok Genusdoktrinen (2020) och Kajsa Ekis Ekmans bok Om könets existens (2021). Med hjälp av diskursteori enligt Laclau och Mouffe analyserar jag vilken syn på genusvetenskap, kön och jämställdhet som artikuleras i de två böckerna. En grundläggande fråga är om det handlar om en gemensam diskurs eller om artikulationerna skiljer sig åt på väsentliga punkter. De tecken som artikuleras i texterna analyserades med avseende på den vikt de har för diskursen och relationerna till varandra. I min analys framträder en gemensam grund i de två artikulationerna. Båda artikulerar en positivistisk vetenskapssyn. De menar att genusvetenskapen ifrågasätter den biologiska grunden för kön med hjälp av social-konstruktivism. De menar vidare att det är politiska beslut som lett till genusvetenskapens etablering och att ett binärt hierarkiskt kön är en förutsättning för jämställdhetsarbetet. De två artikulationerna skiljer sig åt på ett par punkter. Ekman menar i motsats till Arpi och Wyndhamn att jämställdhetsarbetet måste fortsätta. Där Arpi och Wyndhamn nöjer sig med att hävda ett binärt biologiskt kön som vetenskaplig slutpunkt menar Ekman att diskussionen fortgår och att alla feminister inte står bakom genus-vetenskapen. / There is a growing anti gender movement in Europe that fights gender science and gender equality. It has not been that prominent in Sweden. Recently a new word genusdoktrin has been added to the English genderism and German genderismus as a label for a conspiracy against society and its institutions. In this thesis I have carried out a discourse analysis of the two books Genusdoktrinen (2020) by Ivar Arpi and Anna-Karin Wyndhamns and Om könets existens (2021) by Kajsa Ekis Ekman. Using theory of discourse by Laclau and Mouffe I analyze what view of gender studies that is articulated in the two books. An important question is whether they differ or not. The articulated signs were analyzed with regard to the weight carried they in the discourse. The two books articulate a positivist science view and claim that gender science is unscientific. They argue that gender science question the biology of sex from a social constructivist point of view. Moreover, they claim that political decisions made the establishment of gender science possible in Sweden and that a binary hierarchic sex is a prerequisite for a continued gender equality work. The articulations differ in a couple points. Ekman argues contrary to Arpi and Wyndhamn that we have not yet reached gender equality and that the work must continue. Arpi and Wyndhamn says that a binary biological sex is an unquestionable scientific fact. For Ekman, the political discussion continues, and she argues that not all feminists support gender science. / <p>2022-06-02</p>

"Kill the Damn Masters!" : Narratives of Religious War and Social Conflict in Kvistbro parish 1843

Lundström, Tomas January 2015 (has links)
This thesis examines narratives of the events called ”The War of Religion in Kvistbro”, a violent turmoil that erupted in Närke, Sweden 1843. The events involved persons connected to the Shouter Movement, a pietist inspired revivalist movement, and governmental officials who were ordered to arrest a preacher.A narrative analysis based on a model inspired by Labov and Chatman, is used for examining contemporary local newspaper Nerikes Allehanda's and the revivalist historian E. J.Ekman's narrations of the events. The theoretical framework of this thesis is founded on Charles Tilly's theory of collective violence, and James C Scott's theories of hidden transcripts and weapons of the weak.The results of the analysis indicates that there are three main understandings of the events within the empiric material: a religious framing, a medical framing, and a socio-political reading. The socio-political reading of the narratives implies that the concepts medicine as control, social antagonism, and gender-coded aspects of conflict, emerge from the material.
