  1. 21. Impact of offtake mechanisms on wind turbine selection and design in North and Central Europe

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

    Author : Gesa Reiter; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind energy; offtake mechanisms; wind turbine configuration and design; rated power; capacity factor; Renewable Energy Sources Act; EEG; PPA; merchant; profitability; NPV; IRR; Vindkraft; upphandlingsmekanismer; vindturbiners konfiguration och utformning; nominell effekt; kapacitetsfaktor; lagen om förnybara energikällor; EEG; energiköpsavtal; handelsprissättning; lönsamhet; NPV; IRR;

    Abstract : Wind power has become a major supplier of electricity in the European market in the last years. In 2020, 13% of electricity generated on the European continent was wind energy (onshore and offshore) and these shares are projected to increase in the next years due to reasons such as climate change and the energy security aspect.

  3. 22. Sharing space with a larger relative : examining interspecific effects of fallow deer on roe deer performance

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : John-Christophe Hessler Frelinckx; [2023]
    Keywords : roe deer; fallow deer; interspecific competition; population densities;

    Abstract : Interspecific competition of some form is a part of life for most species across the world. For some species it can be part of their evolutionary history over many thousands of years, while for others it is a more recent experience, as is the case of roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) and fallow deer (Dama dama), in Scandinavia.

  4. 23. Optimalt pH-värde i åkermark för en effektiv växtproduktion : vilka rekommendationer finns i andra nordeuropeiska länder?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Kristina Wigfeldt; [2023]
    Keywords : mål-pH; kalkning; jordarter; grödor;

    Abstract : En effektiv, lönsam och hållbar växtproduktion vill de flesta lantbrukare i alla länder uppnå. Det är av största vikt att sträva efter ett optimalt pH då det är en variabel som påverkar de flesta kemiska reaktioner och processer i marken. READ MORE

  5. 24. Wild boar habitat selection in south-central Sweden's forested habitats : effects of season and time

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Bengt Arvid Norström; [2023]
    Keywords : wild boar; habitat selection; GLMM; Sweden;

    Abstract : How wild boar utilize space, interact, and affect its surroundings is critical for understanding their ecology. Wild boar populations have increased rapidly in Sweden and continue to expand its distributional range further north. READ MORE

  6. 25. Climate effects of managed boreal forests : combining effects from carbon balance and albedo

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Anna Valeria Requardt; [2023]
    Keywords : Remotely Sensed Albedo; Age-Albedo pattern; C-flux Radiative Forcing; Boreal Forests Climate Effect;

    Abstract : Boreal forests are considered as a global carbon (C) sink and are utilized for climate-change mitigation. Judging the climate impact of a forest solely on its C balance might leave an incomplete picture, since forest-climate feedbacks are also caused by various other biophysical and biogeochemical processes, e.g., albedo effects.
