  1. 16. Applying LPJ-GUESS on the Arctic: A model evaluation and benchmarking study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Margot Jeanne Knapen; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem Analysis; LPJ-GUESS; Arctic; FLUXNET; Gross Primary Productivity; Ecosystem Respiration; Permafrost; Active Layer Thickness; Snow Depth; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Warming in the Arctic occurs at a much higher rate than the global average, which has a considerable impact on the Arctic terrestrial carbon cycle. Permafrost thawing can release substantial amounts of carbon, whilst tundra shrubification and tree-line advance, on the other hand, may compensate for this. READ MORE

  3. 17. Research on the Hydrothermal Conversion of Xylose Catalysed by CO2-H2O into Furfural

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Robert Liao; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Agricultural waste treatment and carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel combustion have been critical challenges for sustainable development. This work is part of a study on converting straw into biofuels, which involves using xylose as the material, carbon dioxide (CO2) as the catalyst, and water (H2O) and Gamma-Valerolactone (GVL) as the solvent to produce furfural through hydrothermal conversion.

  4. 18. Robust BECCS deployment strategies under deep uncertainty : A case study of Stockholm Exergi

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Oscar Stenström; [2023]
    Keywords : Bioenergy carbon capture and storage; BECCS; decision making under deep uncertainty; DMDU; Dynamic Adaptive Planning; DAP; Robust Decision Making; RDM; Bioenergy carbon capture and storage; BECCS; decision making under deep uncertainty; DMDU; Dynamic Adaptive Planning; DAP; Robust Decision Making; RDM;

    Abstract : The most recent IPCC assessment shows that negative emissions (NEs) and carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies are becoming increasingly important in scenarios that limit global warming to 2 °C or lower. In these scenarios, one key set of CDR technologies is bioenergy carbon capure and storage (BECCS). READ MORE

  5. 19. Towards a Sustainable Energy Future: A Case Study of Luxembourg’s Transition to Renewable Energy and Carbon Neutrality

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Author : Felix Oberhausen Krippler; [2023]
    Keywords : Renewable energy; emissions; electric vehicles; carbon neutrality; mitigation; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : Climate change poses a significant threat to humanity, with devastating consequences already occurring. Transitioning to a low-carbon economy is crucial for mitigating the effects of climate change. High per capita energy consumption and emissions make this transition an urgency for Luxembourg.

  6. 20. Parkinson’s disease tremor assessment: Leveragingsmartphones for symptom measurement

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap och medieteknik (DVMT)

    Author : Malek Abdul Sater; Reem Mohamed; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive, chronic neurodegenerative disorder that impacts patients' quality of life. Hand tremor is a hallmark motor symptom of PD. However, current clinical tremor assessment methods are time-consuming and expensive and may not capture the full extent of tremor fluctuations. READ MORE
