1. 1. 3D geospatial data requirements for simulating noise using the Nord2000 model: Case study of the impact of building façade types and roof configurations on simulated traffic noise levels

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Soraya Hosseinvash Azari; [2023]
   Keywords : Physical Geography; Ecosystem Analysis; noise simulation; traffic; Nord2000 model; building façade types; roof configurations; geospatial data; 3CIM; SoundPLAN; acoustic properties; urban areas; 3D city model; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : The European Union implements the Environmental Noise Directive (END), which offers a framework for evaluating and assessing environmental noise. All EU members are required to create strategic noise maps to inform the public about noise pollution and its effects. READ MORE

3. 2. Hibernation Sites and Activity of Bats During Winter

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

   Author : Jacqueline Nelms; [2023]
   Keywords : bats; temperate bats; hibernation; winter activity; temperature; hibernation sites; fladdermöss; tempererade fladdermöss; övervintring; vinteraktivitet; temperatur; övervintringsplatser;

   Abstract : In the temperate region, bats have evolved the strategy of hibernation to survive the harsh winter. During hibernation, bats enter the vulnerable state of torpor that requires specific environmental conditions to function optimally. Bats are known to use caves and anthropogenic structures as hibernation sites. READ MORE

4. 3. Operando detection of Li-plating by online gas analysis and acoustic emission monitoring

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Strukturkemi

   Author : Inti Espinoza Ramos; [2023]
   Keywords : Li-ion batteries; graphite; solid electrolyte interphase; lithium plating; online gas analysis; operando acoustic emission monitoring;

   Abstract : Lithium ion batteries (LIBs) are widely used for storing and converting chemical energy into electrical energy. During battery operation, lithium ions move between electrode materials, enabling energy storage. However, aging mechanisms like lithium plating can negatively impact battery performance and lifetime. READ MORE

5. 4. Evaluating forest restoration effects on timing of avian dawn chorus in Ranomafana National Park, Madagascar

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

   Author : Marjolein Pijper; [2023]
   Keywords : acoustic monitoring; forest restoration; dawn chorus; avian singing; bird monitoring; automatic recognition;

   Abstract : Monitoring of forest restoration efforts is essential to ensure healthy, self-sustaining tropical rainforests. Passive acoustic monitoring is used to monitor vocal activity of birds, which play a key role in forest ecosystems as seed dispersers. READ MORE

6. 5. Using the AudioMoth - a novel passive acoustic monitoring technology - to monitor bat diversity in a rewilded landscape

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

   Author : Koen Pronk; [2022]
   Keywords : passive acoustic monitoring; bioindicator; chiroptera; audioMoth; trophic rewilding;

   Abstract : Ecosystem restoration through the reintroduction of grazers is gaining interest across Europe. Large herbivores are associated with landscape heterogeneity, restoration of trophic cascades and biodiversity. READ MORE
