  1. 1. Diving Deep: Seabird foraging tactics and local prey field

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Aquatic Resources

    Author : Elin Andersson Sjöholm; [2024]
    Keywords : Common Guillemot; Uria aalge; Optimal Foraging theory; Hydroacoustic data; resource selection;

    Abstract : Foragers in patchy environments need to decide what patches to use and how to allocate their time between them. Optimal foraging theory describes these choices through the relationship between energy expenditure and energy gain. READ MORE

  3. 2. Navigating the Waves of Conservation: Spatiotemporal Patterns in Harbour Porpoise Strandings in Swedish Waters

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Vigge Ulfsson; [2024]
    Keywords : Strandings; spatiotemporal patterns; harbour porpoise;

    Abstract : Harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) are the only cetacean residents found year-round in Swedish waters. Since in situ monitoring of cetaceans can be difficult, invasive and often costly, strandings can be used as a cost-effective alternative to continuously collect data on these elusive animals.

  4. 3. Tau-Leaping Implementations outside of chemistry

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Lotta Kornö; [2024]
    Keywords : Tau leaping; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Tau-leaping is an algorithm for model simulations most often used in kinetic chemistry. It was created to make simulations more efficient at the cost of some accuracy. However, its uses outside of chemistry are limited but could help make some model simulations more efficient. READ MORE

  5. 4. Groundwater Modelling in southeast Cambodia - Facing irrigation and groundwater level changes during a pandemic

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Svea Bertolatus; [2024]
    Keywords : Cambodia; GMS Modflow; Groundwater modelling; irrigation; Mekong; Prey Veng; Svay Rieng; Technology and Engineering; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : In the Mekong region, sustainable water resource management is a significant challenge for all countries involved. In Cambodia, where rice production is crucial for household food security and export, groundwater is increasingly used for irrigation during the dry season, leading to higher rice yields. READ MORE

  6. 5. Resource Usage Prediction for Parameter Sweeps with Biochemical System Simulations

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad beräkningsvetenskap

    Author : Minjia Zhou; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Exploring the behavior of biochemical systems when subjected to certain internal and external changes is fascinating, and these variations can be investigated through computational simulations. However, the computational cost of simulations is often quite high, necessitating an understanding of the computational requirements and resource utilization of these simulations. READ MORE
