1. Evaluating a new hydraulic implementation in LPJ-GUESS for three sites in north Europe
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Drought is projected to increase in frequency and intensity and impacts trees with increased water stress and increased mortality rate. Water stresses can cause hydraulic failure-related mortality or carbon starvation due to tree species having different strategies to deal with water stresses. READ MORE

2. The Effects of Clear-Cutting a Hemiboreal Forest on Local CO2 Fluxes in Norunda, Sweden
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : As CO2 builds up in the atmosphere causing global climate change (IPCC, 2022) trees have become an international symbol of combatting this, and for good reason. Trees take up CO2 which as a result combats these changes, and when these trees are cut down fewer individuals remain to take up the CO2 that we humans emit (Chapin et al., 2011). READ MORE

3. Design and processing of metal-organic frameworks for greenhouse gas capture
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nanoteknologi och funktionella materialAbstract : Anthropogenic emission of greenhouse gases has long been suspected to contribute to global warming and climate change. Most greenhouse gases are emitted in a mixture, so efficient methods and materials to separate and capture the gases are in demand in order to reduce emissions. READ MORE

4. Define optimum process conditions to produce CO2 adsorbents from pur materials
University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomiAbstract : The Carbon Capture and Storage method has been acknowledged for the capabilities of reducing up to 20% CO2 emissions. Development of porous carbon materials prepared from polyurethane foam adsorbent were investigated for capture of CO2. In this thesis work, the carbon material was chemically activated through the direct and indirect methods. READ MORE

5. Towards climate optimised riparian buffer zones in boreal forests
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and ManagementAbstract : Boreal forests have the potential to mitigate the increased concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere. However, forestry alters the soil biogeochemical processes which can cause an increase in GHG emissions from nearby water bodies, soil and vegetation. READ MORE
