Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The gully systems on Mars have been found to superpose young geological surfaces such as dunes and thermal contraction polygons. This in combination with the general absence of superimposed impact craters suggest that the gullies are relatively recent geological formations. The observed gullies display a wide set of morphologies ranging from features seemingly formed by fluvial erosion to others pointing to dry landslide processes. A recent discovery suggests that this is an ongoing process, which appears to occur even today. Several formation mechanisms have been proposed for the Martian gullies, such as liquid carbon dioxide reservoirs, shallow liquid water aquifer, melting ground ice, dry landslide, snow melt and deep liquid water aquifer. However, none of these models can alone explain all the gullies discovered on Mars. So far Martian gullies have been studied only from orbit via remote sensing data. Hydrostatic pingos are perennial ice-cored mounds that may reach an elongated or circular radius of approximately 150 m. They are found in periglacial environments where they are formed by freezing processes in the continuous permafrost. The pingos go through different evolutionary stages as they mature, where the final stage leaves an annular rim left by the collapse of the summit. Images from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) show small fractured mounds in the Martian mid-latitudes. Even though some differences are observed, the best terrestrial analogues for the observed mound morphology are pingos. Gullies and pingos found in Arctic climates on Earth could be an analog for the Martian ones. A comparative analysis might help to understand the formation mechanisms of the Martian pingos and gullies and their possible eroding agent.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The automotive industry has seen remarkable growth in the use of network and communication technology. These technologies can be vulnerable to attacks. Several examples of confirmed attacks have been documented in academic studies, and many vehicular communications systems have been designed without security aspects in mind. Furthermore, all the security implications mentioned here would affect the functionality of decision support systems (DSS) of IoT and vehicular networks. This chapter focuses on in-vehicle security and aims to categorize some attacks in this field according to the exploited vulnerability by showing common patterns. The conclusion suggests that an ethernet-based architecture could be a good architecture for future vehicular systems; it enables them to meet future security needs while still allowing network communication with outside systems.

Det godkända fusket : Normförhandlingar i gymnasieskolans bedömningspraktiker
- 2014

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Education on behalf of social trust constitutes a central theme in all societies. Different forms of cheating and fraud have a negative impact on the bonds of social trust. The purpose of the thesis is to increase understanding of the scope for learning about the individual-society relationship as it finds expression in pedagogical practices involving norms relating to cheating. The established norms concerning school cheating are identified in group-based discussions involving Upper Secondary students and teachers.Students ascribe each other roles on the basis of the perceived capacity to produce school results and thereby also to justify the need for school cheating. In the norm negotiations a significant tolerance is shown towards cheating which is adjudged to be necessary, provided that a hierarchic, fair distribution of grades can be retained.The teachers perceive expectations of acting for goal fulfilment, in the form of good student grades, as based on economic arguments. Good student grades imply satisfied customers in a market exposed to competition and a strong market value for the individual school. From a critical viewpoint these norms are related to the contemporary, dominant neo-liberal principles of commercialisation and individualisation in social organisation.The school actors perceive, in accordance with stratified norm theory, the norms from economic systems of conduct as more strongly conditioning on conduct than those norms from political-administrative or socio-cultural conduct systems. The teachers are aware of expectations, in hidden concert and consent with other school stakeholders, to offer social approval for student cheating and sympathetic marking concerning the lowest grade for passing i.e. violation of rules, where this is necessary to meet the economic as well as political-administrative objectives that have been established.To be part of pedagogic practices involving school cheating implies learning to uncouple rules and practice, law and morality. Such a double agenda is incompatible with norms and ideals in official curricula as well as being destructive of the bonds of social trust; it thereby functions as a hidden curriculum.

MORPHOMETRY OF ALLUVIAL FANS IN A POLAR DESERT (SVALBARD, NORWAY): IMPLICATIONS FOR INTERPRETING MARTIAN FANS.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Alluvial fan-like landforms have been identified on Mars. Since alluvial fans are recorders of processes that are sensitive to climatic conditions, the investigation of possible Martian fans can reveal information about the planet`s climate. In lieu of direct observations of active depositional processes on Martian fans, comparisons with terrestrial analogues can constrain models of Martian fan formation derived from remote sensing data. Since present-day Mars is cold and dry, alluvial fans formed in cold deserts should be considered as useful analogues. The probably closest climatic analogue to Mars on Earth are the Antarctic Dry Valleys , but polar deserts can also be found in the Arctic. We report on our field work in summer 2008 and a simultaneous flight campaign with an airborne version (HRSC-AX) of the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) onboard Mars Express. The results are compared with measurements of Martian fans, based on HRSC DEM.

Periglacial landscapes on Svalbard: Terrestrial analogs for cold-climate landforms on Mars
- 2011

Ingår i: The Geological Society of America, Special Paper. - : Geological Society of America. ; 483

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We present landforms on Svalbard (Norway) as terrestrial analogs for possible Martian periglacial surface features. While there are closer climatic analogs for Mars, e.g., the Antarctic Dry Valleys, Svalbard has unique advantages that make it a very useful study area. Svalbard is easily accessible and offers a periglacial landscape where many different landforms can be encountered in close spatial proximity. These landforms include thermal contraction cracks, slope stripes, rock glaciers, protalus ramparts, and pingos, all of which have close morphological analogs on Mars. The combination of remotesensing data, in particular images and digital elevation models, with field work is a promising approach in analog studies and facilitates acquisition of fi rst-hand experience with permafrost environments. Based on the morphological ambiguity of certain landforms such as pingos, we recommend that Martian cold-climate landforms should not be investigated in isolation, but as part of a landscape system in a geological context.

Svalbard (Norway) as a terrestrial analogue for Martian landforms: Results on

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Small alluvial fan-like landforms have been observed on Mars in association with recent gullies. Such fans are relatively small (km-scale) when compared to large alluvial fans on Mars, which can reach dimensions of tens of kilometers. The small fans are part of an erosion-transportsedimentation system (alcove-channel-apron). Morphologically very similar systems can be studied on Svalbard (Norway), which is a cold and dry polar desert and, therefore, a potentially useful terrestrial analogue for Mars` climate and climaterelated landforms. Here we give an update on our field work in summer 2008 and a simultaneous flight campaign with an airborne version (HRSCAX) of the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) onboard Mars Express. We also present very preliminary results from the field campaign in summer 2009.

POSSIBLE FREEZE AND THAW LANDFROMS ON HIGH-LATITUDE SLOPES ON MARS: INSIGHTS FROM TERRESTRIAL ANALOGS IN SPITSBERGEN, SVALBARD.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Solifluction lobes are common slope features in Polar Regions on Earth where freeze and thaw processes occur. Mars is currently a cold and barren planet with its water resources locked up in ice caps, glaciers and ice-enriched permafrost. However, features resembling solifluction lobes have been observed on high-latitude slopes on Mars and in most, but not all, cases in close proximity to gullies. Lobes are found on steep inner crater walls and in planform they show striking resemblance to terrestrial solifluction lobes. These observations may point to a late phase in Mars history with transient melt water in local environments. In our study we have examined solifluction lobes on slopes in Svalbard in order to compare to the Martian lobate landforms. Specific questions we address are: how widely distributed are these lobate landforms on Mars and how do they relate to known ground-ice related landforms?

- Stripes and gelifluction lobes are common slope features in polar regions on Earth where freeze and thaw processes occur. Mars is currently a cold and barren planet with its water resources locked up as ice caps and ice-rich permafrost. However, features resembling stripes and gelifluction lobes have been observed on high-latitude slopes on Mars and in most, but not all, cases in close proximity to gullies. Stripe width typically ranges from ~50 cm to 1.5 m, and their orientation is consistently down slope, although it can not be excluded that it sometimes slightly deviates from the steepest topographic gradient. Lobes are found on steep inner crater walls and display similar dimensions as terrestrial gelifluction lobes. These observations may point to a late phase in Mars history with transient melt water in local niches. In our study we have examined sorted and non-sorted stripes as well as gelifluction lobes on slopes in Svalbard in order to test the working hypothesis of a freeze and thaw origin of the Martian landforms.

THE ORIGIN OF STRIPE-LIKE PATTERNS ON MARTIAN GULLY SLOPES; USING SVALBARD ADVENT VALLEY AS A MARS ANALOGUE.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Stripes are a common slope features in polar regions on Earth were active layer processes (freezing/thawing and gelifluction) occur. Their origin is most likely polygenic and closely related to frost crack plygons and sorted circles with the addition of a gravitational component. Stripes are either sorted or unsorted. Features resembling stripes have been observed on slopes on Mars with or without association with polygons. Due to the current temperature and pressure regime on Mars soil moisture and active layer processes are not likely to occur. However, in recent HiRISE images stripelike patterns can be observed in proximity to gullies . Stripe width typically ranges from ~50 cm to 1.5 m, and their orientation is consistently down slope, although it can not be excluded that it sometimes slightly deviates from the steepest topographic gradient. In our study we have examined sorted and nonsorted stripes on slopes in Svalbard in order to test the working hypothesis of an cryoturbation origin for the martian stripe-like patterns. In doing so we compare their morphological characteristics, settings, and slope to those on Mars.
