  1. 1. Primary Drivers of Sea Level Variability in the North – Baltic Sea Transition Using Machine Learning

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : David Ek; [2023-01-09]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Global mean sea level is rising, however not uniformly. Regional deviations of sea surface height (SSH) are common due to local drivers, including surface winds, ocean density stratifications, vertical land- & crustal movements and more. READ MORE

  3. 2. Effects of climate, soil, and forest structure on specific leaf area of understorey foundation plants

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Sashank Khaniya; [2023]
    Keywords : Specific leaf area; understorey vegetation; foundation species; forest structure; climate change;

    Abstract : Forest overstorey's interaction with understorey vegetation is a crucial aspect that impacts the biodiversity and resilience of forest ecosystems. Particularly, the influence of the overstorey on the specific leaf area (SLA) in understorey plants remains poorly understood. READ MORE

  4. 3. Identification of restoration hotspots in landscape-scale green infrastructure planning based on model-predicted connectivity forest

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Xiaoming Wang; [2023]
    Keywords : boreal forest; conservation; restoration; connectivity; green infrastructure; GIS; Sweden; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Boreal forest landscapes have undergone severe anthropogenic fragmentation and their enormous values concerning, e.g., ecosystem service, biodiversity and culture are hazarded. READ MORE

  5. 4. Use of the JET pedestal database to assess the role of ion temperature and plasma rotation on the discrepancy between ideal peeling-ballooning model and experimental data

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Max Eichenberger; [2022]
    Keywords : Nuclear fusion; Joint European Torus JET ; H-mode; pedestal; Edge-localized-modes ELMs ; Peeling-Ballooning; relative shift; ion temperature; plasma rotation; Kärnfusion; JET Joint European Torus ; H-läge; piedestal; ELM Edge Localized­Modes ; peeling-ballooning; relativ förskjutning; jontemperatur; plasmarotation;

    Abstract : Next-generation and present fusion devices such as the Joint European Torus (JET) aim for plasma operations in H-mode, a plasma regime with high confinement and low loss of energy and fuel that results from a barrier for heat and particle transport at the plasma edge, the pedestal. Due to steep gradients of the density, temperature and pressure profiles, the pedestal experiences instabilities called Edge-localized-modes (ELMs) which lead to large fluxes of heat and particles that might damage machine components.

  6. 5. Ventilation systems in Low Energy Houses: augmentation of mixing in a small-scale water model by generating resonance

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Author : Borja Chocarro de Erauso; [2022]
    Keywords : Stratification; buoyancy frequency; resonance; mixing; passive house; water model;

    Abstract : Some passive houses are provided a warm supply flow inlet coming from a mechanical ventilation system, creating issues of shortcut ventilation as a result of an originated density layer stratification, since the supplied warm air is confined to the ceiling level. In this way, there exist several complaints of thermal discomfort and poor indoor environmental quality in passive houses. READ MORE
