  1. 21. Climate change impact on water balance and export of dissolved organic carbon : a sub-catchment modelling approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Stina Sandgren; [2017]
    Keywords : HYPE; hydrological modelling; DOC; climate change; water balance; specific discharge; hydrology; climate scenarios; carbon cycle; mire catchment; forest catchment; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Climate change will alter the hydrological cycle in the 21st century with implications for the water balance and water quality. As characteristics of the landscape may vary significantly between nearby locations, hydrological models need to be able to delineate responses attributed to specific landscape characteristics, to estimate their responses to altered climatic drivers.

  3. 22. Paleogeography and shore displacement of Eastern Gotland between 9.5 and 2.8 ka cal BP

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Aleftin Barliaev; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Located in the middle part of the Baltic, the island of Gotland underwent major environmental changes, associated with different stages of the development of the basin during the Holocene, and therefore represents a promising location for shore-displacement studies. This thesis is focused on a palaeohydrological evolution of the Lina Mire, central eastern part of Gotland, in the Middle Holocene and aims to reconstruct the timing and environment of the Littorina transgression.

  4. 23. Landscape factors related to performance of in-situ sensors for prediction of total phosphorus : a statistical analysis of data from 194 streams in Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment

    Author : Cham Hoang; [2017]
    Keywords : surface water monitoring; surrogate parameters; total Phosphorous; turbidity; catchment; land-use; soil type;

    Abstract : Accurate monitoring data of phosphorus concentrations in the water will benefit the evaluation of measures taken to reduce the problems of eutrophication. Today, the quantification of phosphorus loads from diffuse sources involves large uncertainties. READ MORE

  5. 24. The Vegetational and Environmental Development of Lina Mire, Gotland from 6900-400 BC

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Nichola Strandberg; [2017]
    Keywords : Pollen; Lina Mire; Archaeology; Baltic; Human impacts;

    Abstract : Lina Mire, Gotland, is an area of archaeological significance and has a complex history of shoreline displacement. Archaeologists suspect that Lina Mire was once part of an important inland water system which connected the Littorina Sea with central Gotland. READ MORE

  6. 25. Study of radiometric variations in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle remote sensing imagery for vegetation mapping

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Maria Ximena Tagle Casapia; [2017]
    Keywords : vegetation mapping; UAV; radiometric correction; vegetation indices; GEM; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) provide a flexible method for acquiring high-resolution imagery with relative simple operation and cost-effectiveness. This technology emerged 30 years ago and it is widely used by commercial, scientific, and military communities due to its versatility. However, new technology brings new challenges. READ MORE
