1. 1. Evaluating the accuracy of NEWA, ERA5 and NORA3 in predicting onshore wind conditions: a comparative study using ICOS meteorological mast data in Sweden

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Svetlana Kuru; [2024]
   Keywords : NEWA; ERA5; NORA3; wind speed; wind distribution; correlation coefficient;

   Abstract : The ECMWF Reanalysis v5 (ERA5), the New European Wind Atlas (NEWA), and the 3 km Norwegian Reanalysis (NORA3) are reference datasets that are available for industry and research. The resolution of 3km in both the NORA3 and NEWA datasets sets them apart, while ERA5, with its 31km resolution, continues to serve as a reliable data source that is widely used in the industry.

3. 2. 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

4. 3. The Effects of Clear-Cutting a Hemiboreal Forest on Local CO2 Fluxes in Norunda, Sweden

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Mads Carlsen; [2023]
   Keywords : CO2 flux; Clear-cutting; Coniferous forest; Flux footprint; Sustainable forestry; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : As CO2 builds up in the atmosphere causing global climate change (IPCC, 2022) trees have become an international symbol of combatting this, and for good reason. Trees take up CO2 which as a result combats these changes, and when these trees are cut down fewer individuals remain to take up the CO2 that we humans emit (Chapin et al., 2011). READ MORE

5. 4. Evaluation of the variation in albedo over snow-covered forest in Northern Sweden and Finland

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Klara Hugosson; [2022-05-20]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The effect of albedo variability induced by meteorological parameters in snow-covered forested areas at local scale is poorly known. Few meteorological stations measure albedo, even though the effect on albedo caused by land use changes is well known. READ MORE
