  3. 2. Mandating transparency on deforestation and ecosystem conversion

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Author : Moritz Driescher; [2023]
    Keywords : sustainability reporting; mandatory disclosure; deforestation; ecosystem conversion; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The production of eggs, meat, and dairy products in the EU indirectly contributes to deforestation and ecosystem conversion (DEC) in Latin America due to extensive imports of soy for animal feed. This thesis explores under which preconditions the mandatory European Sustainability Reporting Standards for the agriculture and farming sector can increase transparency in the opaque soy supply chains and incentivize reductions of imported DEC.

  5. 4. On the stability of current collectors in high-voltage lithium-ion batteries containing LiFSI electrolytes

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Oorganisk kemi

    Author : Kevin Carlö; [2023]
    Keywords : LiFSI; high-voltage; anodic dissolution; corrosion; aluminum; current collector; electrolyte; battery;

    Abstract : The increasing energy demand requires a transition from fossil fuels to renewable resources. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) offer a promising solution as efficient energy storage devices. However, the aluminum current collector (CC) in LIBs is susceptible to anodic dissolution above 3 V vs. READ MORE

  6. 5. Parameter Stability in Additive Normal Tempered Stable Processes for Equity Derivatives

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för utbildning, kultur och kommunikation

    Author : Eduardo Alberto Alcantara Martinez; [2023]
    Keywords : Parameter Stability; Lévy Processes; Calibration; Volatility Surface; Subordination; Additive Normal Tempered Stable Processes; Stable Distribution; Variance Gamma Process; Normal Inverse Gaussian Process.;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the parameter stability of additive normal tempered stable processes when calibrating a volatility surface. The studied processes arise as a generalization of Lévy normal tempered stable processes, and their main characteristic are their time-dependent parameters. READ MORE
