  1. 1. The accuracy of road distances in the Antonine itinerary

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Antikens kultur och samhällsliv

    Author : Tomas Öberg; [2023]
    Keywords : History and Archaeology;

    Abstract : The Antonine itinerary was compiled in the early fourth century CE and is a key source to our know¬¬ledge about ancient geography and the Roman road system. However, the major research work dates more than 100 years back in time and few studies have been focussed on its overall reliability. READ MORE

  3. 2. THE IMPORTANCE OF FORMULATING A UNIFORM STRUCTURE FOR NON-FINANCIAL REPORTING: A quantitative study based on the evidence from the automotive industry.

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Företagsekonomi

    Author : Asif Sarker; Mundi Mike-Hana Fongang; [2021]
    Keywords : Non-financial reporting; Sustainability reporting; Stakeholders; GRI; Automotive industry.;

    Abstract : Nowadays, sustainability has become a well-known and popular topic which has drawn the attention of many people worldwide. To fulfill their responsibility towards sustainability, the business world is shifting from an accounting-based accountability to an accountability-based accounting. READ MORE

  4. 3. Modelling the impacts of organic matter quality on soil carbon turnover and storage : continued testing of a novel dual-pore model against data collected from a long-term study site in Offer, Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Mikael Sasha Dooha; [2021]
    Keywords : soil; soil organic matter; carbon; carbon sequestration; tillage; land-use; soil structure; porosity; modelling; humification;

    Abstract : As we look for solutions to the worsening climate crisis, carbon sequestration has become a popular strategy to mitigate CO2 emissions. Carbon models are used to predict or emulate changes in future soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks, but most fail to account for the influence of pore size on soil structure and SOC storage. READ MORE

  5. 4. ICOS Atmospheric Stations: Spatial Characterization of CO2 Footprint Areas and Evaluating the Uncertainties of Modelled CO2 Concentrations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Ida Storm; [2020]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; ICOS; Carbon dioxide; Modelling; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The main purpose of this thesis is to present and analyze spatial characteristics of 31 different European atmospheric measurement stations in the ICOS (Integrated Carbon Observation System) station network. The characterization includes quantification of where air arriving at the stations can be expected to have come from, as well as a breakdown of what these areas cover with regards to land cover, point source emissions and population.

  6. 5. Exhaust Temperature Modeling and Optimal Control of Catalytic Converter Heating

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Victor Petersson; [2019]
    Keywords : cold-start; catalyst heating; ignition retardation; GDI;

    Abstract : After reaching its light-off temperature, the catalytic aftertreatment system plays a major part in maintaining emissions at low levels for vehicles equipped with combustion engines. In this thesis, modelling of the exhaust gas temperature is investigated along with optimal control strategy for variable ignition and exhaust valve opening angles for optimal catalytic converter heating.
