  1. 1. The Role of Uni- and Multivariate Bias Adjustment Methods for Future Hydrological Projections and Subsequent Decision-Making

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Anna Merle Liebenehm-Axmann; [2024]
    Keywords : Bias adjustment methods; future hydrological climate projections; statistical analysis; future streamflow analysis; biasjusteringsmetoder; framtida hydrologiska projektioner; statistisk analys; framtida vattenförings analys;

    Abstract : Climate models are essential for generating future climate projections. However, due to simplifications, the models can produce systematic differences between output and reality, which is referred to as model bias. Bias adjustment methods aim to reduce this error, which is important for making future projections more reliable. READ MORE

  3. 2. MODELLING THE SMOLT PRODUCTIVITY OF BROWN TROUT (SALMO TRUTTA) IN HAGA Å

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Lukas Almgren; [2023-10-30]
    Keywords : Brown trout; Salmo trutta; Trout habitat score; THS; Haga å; electro-fishing survey;

    Abstract : The brown trout (Salmo trutta) is a facultatively anadromous species, some individuals migrate from the rearing environment in the rivers to the sea while other individuals stay in fresh water. To determine the suitability of a stream for juvenile trout the organization SGBALANST has developed what is called the "Trout habitat score" (THS) model. READ MORE

  4. 3. Assessing the accuracy of a spatial model of habitat suitability for Calypso bulbosa

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Michael Doorly; [2023]
    Keywords : Calypso bulbosa; norna; orchid; conservation; Sweden; alpine region; habitat suitability; distribution model; ecology; biodiversity;

    Abstract : Calypso bulbosa is a rare and visually striking orchid that grows in older mesic to moist forests in the northern half of Sweden. C. bulbosa is red listed as a threatened species (Vulnerable, VU) with a reduction in numbers linked to modern forestry practices and exacerbated by the warming climate. READ MORE

  5. 4. Wildfire growth modelling in Sweden - a suitability assessment of available data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Henrik Hagelin; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Physical geography; Prometheus; WiSE-FASS; The 2014 Västmanland wildfire; Wildfire growth modelling; Wildfire suppression support; Wildfire behaviour; MESAN; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Wildfires are worldwide problems that stress societies by damaging their economies and they cause serious, sometimes fatal, health implications among the populations. In recent years, the rate of wildfire occurrence has increased as the global average temperature has risen. Because of global climate change, this rate is expected to continue rising. READ MORE

  6. 5. Hydrogen fuel in the domestic maritime transport sector of Fiji : A Feasibility Study

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Tilda Eklund; Anna Fredén; [2023]
    Keywords : Fiji; Fuel Cell; Maritime Hydrogen; Maritime Transport; Fiji; Bränslecell; Maritim Vätgas; Maritim Transport;

    Abstract : The maritime transport sector accounts for around 2.9% of the world’s anthropogenic emissions, a percentage that is growing yearly. Alternative fuels have come to be considered the necessary solution of the future, not least in island nations such as Fiji that are socially and economically dependent on sustainable maritime transport.
