1. Comparison of drone ecology and behavior between Apis mellifera mellifera and the hybrid Buckfast in southwestern Sweden
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Most research on the biology of the western honey bee (Apis mellifera) focuses on the worker bees, but knowledge about drones is lacking despite their important role in mating with a virgin queen. Available information about their ecology and behavior are mainly based on direct observations in need of intensive experience and knowledge about honey bees. READ MORE

2. Analysing seasonal snow cover trends and patterns on Svalbard
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraAbstract : Rapid warming in the Arctic is highly impacting the cryosphere in the region, causing melting of the sea ice, retreat of glaciers and reduction in the snow cover. If suffering further temperature increase, the albedo of the region would reduce due to higher absorption of the solar radiation in snow-free areas. READ MORE

3. Development of a deep learning method for soil moisture estimation at high spatial and temporal resolution using satellite data
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Soil moisture (SM) is an essential climate variable that controls fundamental hydrological and climatic processes. Soil moisture products derived from microwave remote sensing often provide measurements at low spatial resolution and incomplete temporal records. READ MORE

4. Interpolation of temperature data for improved weather forecasts
University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteoriAbstract : To create weather forecasts at the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI), it is needed to interpolate the temperature from the observation stations into a grid with 2.5 km between each point. Since the observed temperatures are known and without error, they should be held fix even after the interpolation. READ MORE

5. Analysis and comparison of weather models for solar irradiance forecasts in Sweden
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/FörbränningsfysikAbstract : Solar radiation is affected in a variety of different ways through the atmosphere and on its way down to the Earth’s surface. Clouds are the main factor in this attenuation of solar radiation, but aerosols, ozone and other different gases have a significant impact too. Understanding these processes is fundamental to solar forecasting. READ MORE
