1. 1. Application of Fourier Transforms to time-resolved ambient pressure spectroscopy operando studies of CO oxidation over Pt(111)

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik

   Author : Grigore-Leon Ratiu; [2024]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The study of heterogeneous catalysis has important implications in increasing the efficiency of industrial processes and in reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases from sources such as automobiles. A reaction with high industrial relevance is the oxidation of CO on noble metal catalysts. READ MORE

3. 2. Effective soil organic carbon monitoring in perennial agriculture systems - Sampling protocol development and evaluation

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Maja Holm; [2024]
   Keywords : Physical geography; ecosystem science; soil organic carbon; soil sampling; perennial crops; carbon sequestration; carbon farming; Kernza™; soil organic carbon stock; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Perennial agriculture systems are gaining ground as a more sustainable alternative to conventional annual agriculture, partly for their potential to increase the soil organic carbon (SOC) content. Carbon farming is another hot topic for SOC sequestration, as it creates economic incentives for farmers. READ MORE

4. 3. Exploring Urban Land Cover Changes and the Effect on Nocturnal Air Temperature Dynamics in Helsingborg - A temperature modeling made with TAPM

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Amanda Bäck; [2023-10-09]
   Keywords : Nocturnal Air Temperature; Intra-Urban Heat Island; Land Cover Classification; Deep learning; The Air Pollution Model TAPM ; Land Cover Change;

   Abstract : In light of increasing global temperatures, urban areas face growing challenges related to heat stress. Alterations in land cover (LC) within cities contribute to changes in the intra-urban climate, predominantly driven by the replacement of vegetated surfaces with impermeable materials. READ MORE

5. 4. CHANGES IN URBAN GREENERY DURING THE 2018 HEAT WAVE – A CASE STUDY FOR GÖTEBORG USING REMOTE SENSING

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

   Author : Ivan Ruzic; [2023-06-21]
   Keywords : heat wave; urban trees; NDVI; remote sensing;

   Abstract : Urban vegetation plays a crucial role in diverse urban microclimates. The numerous ecosystem services provided by vegetation, particularly trees, ensure greater quality of life and thermal comfort regulation. Yet, not all trees are immune to extreme weather events, such as droughts and heat waves, especially in cities. READ MORE
