  1. 1. Climate Change and Precipitation Variability Influence on the Greenland Ice Sheet

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

    Author : Jennie Olsson; [2018]
    Keywords : Physics; Ice Sheet; Surface Mass Balance; SMB; Representative Concentration Pathways; RCP; Climate Change; Greenland; Precipitation; Precipitation Variability; Glaciers; Glacier; Meteorology; Greenhouse Effect; Greenhouse Gas; Future Climate; Climate; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Climate changes have a large impact on precipitation patterns and precipitation variability change. With this in mind, precipitation over Greenland is studied. This is done for present day precipitation model data from 1991-2010 compared to future model simulations of precipitation for 2081-2100. READ MORE

  3. 2. Aerosol Input and Snow Accumulation Rates on the Northern Greenland Ice Sheet : Reconstructed by means of Continuous Flow Analysis (CFA) of 6 shallow firn cores

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Patrick Stephan Zens; [2018]
    Keywords : continuous flow analysis; Greenland; shallow firn core; aerosol; snow accumulation; glaciochemistry; kontinuerlig flödesanalys; Grönland; grunda firnkärnor; aerosol; snöackumulering; glaciokemi;

    Abstract : Ice, firn and snow cores from the Greenland ice sheet offer a unique opportunity to reconstruct past climate conditions. These can be analyzed with continuous flow analysis (CFA) in order to acquire proxy information about ancient atmospheric aerosol concentrations, snow accumulation rates or temperature variations, atmospheric composition, solar activity as well as volcanism and biological activity.

  4. 3. Temporal Consistency of the UERRA Regional Reanalysis: Investigating the Forecast Skill

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Adam von Kraemer; [2018]
    Keywords : Temporal consistency; reanalysis; forecast skill; UERRA; HARMONIE; Tidsmässig konsistens; återanalys; prognoskvalitet; UERRA; HARMONIE;

    Abstract : Weather forecasting has improved greatly since the middle of the 20th century, thanks to better forecasting models, an evolved weather observing system, and improved ways of assimilating the observation data. However, these large systematical improvements make it difficult to use the weather data for climatological studies. READ MORE

  5. 4. Importance of large scale extreme precipitation to the surface mass balance of the Greenland Ice sheet

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

    Author : Moa Hallberg; [2018]
    Keywords : Ice sheet; Greenland; surface mass balance; atmospheric rivers; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The ongoing climate change has affected Greenland's ice sheet with heighten near surface temperatures, an extended melt season and change in precipitation. These effects have caused Greenland's ice sheet to melt at an accelerating rate. READ MORE

  6. 5. Modeling the Future Wind Production in the Nordic Countries

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektro- och systemteknik (EES)

    Author : Viktor Granberg; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In recent years there has been a rapid expansion in wind power production within the Nordic countries which creates a demand for accurate wind power models. This thesis looks into how to create accurate time series of wind power production that can be used in energy market simulations. READ MORE
