  1. 1. Investigation of Ice Nucleating Particles (INPs) in southern Sweden - With a special focus on their origin, possible connection to meteorological parameters and aerosol properties

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Malin Forsmalm; [2023-06-21]
    Keywords : INPs; DFA; LUCS;

    Abstract : This study investigates if there is a seasonal variability of ice nucleating particle (INP) concentrations. There is also a focus in seeing if there are correlations between meteorological parameters and aerosol properties and the measured INP concentrations. READ MORE

  3. 2. Seasonal Variability of Ice Nucleating Particles (INP) in Southern Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Tamina Kabir; [2023-03-08]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Cloud ice crystals are formed by ice-nucleating particles (INPs). The micro-physical properties of clouds, precipitation formation and the life cycle of clouds are strongly influenced by the presence or absence of ice. Therefore knowledge of atmospheric INP concentrations is crucial to improve weather forecasting and climate projections. READ MORE

  4. 3. Seasonal variation of LAI in Swedish coniferous forest

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Ilia Mastepanov; [2023]
    Keywords : leaf area index; LAI; PAR; forest; coniferous forest; Hyltemossa; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Leaf Area Index (LAI) is quantity representing the amount of foliage in the canopy, which makes it an important parameter for analysing terrestrial ecosystems. Traditional methods of measuring LAI were done by analysing hemispherical photographs by hand and were very time consuming, requiring specific weather conditions (Jonckheere et al. 2004). READ MORE

  5. 4. Evaluating a new hydraulic implementation in LPJ-GUESS for three sites in north Europe

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Carl Holmquist; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; LPJ-GUESS; drought; sensitivity analysis; evapotranspiration; gross primary production; hydraulic parameters; boreal forest.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Drought is projected to increase in frequency and intensity and impacts trees with increased water stress and increased mortality rate. Water stresses can cause hydraulic failure-related mortality or carbon starvation due to tree species having different strategies to deal with water stresses. READ MORE

  6. 5. Testing aerosol vertical profiling methods with portable instruments on unmanned and manned aircraft

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Ellen Grace Soroka; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical Geography; Ecosystem Analysis; Aerosols; Vertical Profile; Black Carbon; PM2.5; Nanoparticles; UAV; Drone; Master degree thesis; 30 credits in Atmospheric Science Biogeochemical Cycles; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : This thesis employed several portable sensors on board an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and manned aircraft in order to test new methods of measuring vertical profiles of aerosol particles and contribute to knowledge of aerosol distributions in the atmosphere. More data in this area is required to improve atmospheric modelling and future climate scenarios. READ MORE
