  1. 1. DIFFERENCES ON THE IMPACTS AND ORIGINS OF POLLEN IN FOUR MAJOR SWEDISH CITIES BETWEEN 2014 AND 2019

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Jean-Patrick Ridet-Lagorce; [2024-02-12]
    Keywords : Pollen; Allergy; Antihistaminic; Airborne transport; Geographical origins;

    Abstract : Allergies are widespread in the world and coming from various sources, one of the causes being airborne allergens and especially, pollen. The negative impact of pollen is enhanced by pollution and climate change which are some of the biggest issue humankind is facing today. READ MORE

  3. 2. Integrating Local Knowledge into the Spatial Analysis of Wind Power: The case study of Northern Tzoumerka, Greece

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Athanasios Senteles; [2024]
    Keywords : Geography; Geographical Information Systems; MCDA; wind energy; local knowledge; Greece; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Increasing demand for incorporating renewable energy projects into the national energy mix, is associated with international and European efforts to tackle the negative effects of climate change and strengthen energy resilience. Greece, as a member country of the European Union, has acknowledged that necessity, by implementing a national program aiming to significantly reduce Green House Gas Emissions and upscale Renewable Energy Sources (RES) project development in upcoming years.

    Keywords : Climate Refugia; Climate Change; Representative Concentration Patterns; Marine Spatial Planning; Geographical Information Systems; Temperature; Salinity; Marine Management; Swedish West Coast;

    Abstract : Climate change poses a significant threat to the survival and distribution of marine species and habitats. Identification and conservation of climate refugia have emerged as a strategy to safeguard vulnerable habitats and promote species resilience. READ MORE

  5. 4. Life is like a Boxx : How do film production sites affect wireless transmission?

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Malin Hall; [2023]
    Keywords : Boxx Atom; wireless transmission; radio shadows; video quality; link budget; signal attenuation; Boxx Atom; trådlös överföring; radioskugga; video kvalitet; länkbudget; signaldämpningg;

    Abstract : Wireless transmission is an everyday part of movie production and a tool many people use in their work. Work, on a movie production, is fast, intense, and varies in geographical location almost on a daily basis (sometimes several locations in a day). Despite this, the stream, the transmission, must hold so the crew can work. READ MORE

  6. 5. Using a GIS to enable an economic, land use and energy output comparison between small wind powered turbines and large-scale wind farms: the case of Oslo, Norway.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Colin Potter; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Wind power; Renewable energy sources; urban wind energy; urban areas; planning; vertical axis wind turbines; comparative studies; urban integrated energy systems; Oslo; Roan; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Responding to an identified knowledge gap, the study aims to determine if smaller wind turbines located on top of existing urban buildings are more resource efficient (land utilization and economically) than large scale wind farms. To answer this question, using a GIS, the resource efficiency of the Roan wind farm in Northern Norway was compared to a theoretical modeled installation of small-scale wind turbines on top of buildings within a 2km radius study zone in central Oslo.
