  1. 21. Determining an Optimal Level of Power System Investments Under Large Scale Penetration of Solar Power in Saudi Arabia

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Hatem Alatawi; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Saudi Arabia government set ambitious plans to adopt renewable energy sources in the energy mix as part of its strategy to diversify its economy away from oil. Ac- cording to the renewable energy project development office (REPDO), the total RES capacity installed would amount to 27.3 GW by 2023 and 58.7 GW by 2030. READ MORE

  3. 22. Early season BVOC emission for young potted Norway spruce (Picea abies)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Erica Jaakkola; [2019]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; BVOC; Norway spruce; PTR-TOFMS; photosynthesis; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC) are emitted naturally from the biosphere to the atmosphere and are a part of the global carbon emissions. BVOCs are contributing to around 5-10% of the total net carbon exchange to the atmosphere. READ MORE

  4. 23. Influence from long-distance transport, local sources and precipitation on black carbon concentrations at a rural background field station in southern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Kit Ming Yam; [2019]
    Keywords : Black carbon; black carbon concentrations; Hyltemossa station; Aethalometer; HYSPLIT; long-distance transport; local sources; precipitation; Physics and Astronomy; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The year 2018 was the first complete year with aerosol observations at the rural background station Hyltemossa in southern Sweden. The aim of this thesis was to analyse and investigate the influence from long-distance transport (LDT) aerosols, local sources and precipitation on the black carbon (BC) mass concentration by utilising the Aethalometer and the HYSPLIT model, which estimated the BC mass concentration ([BC]) and simulated the origin of the LDT air masses to Hyltemossa, respectively.

  5. 24. Characterizing particulate carbon using dielectric property measurements

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Madeleine Syk; Joakim Vollmer; [2018]
    Keywords : black carbon; elemental carbon; carbonaceous aerosols; soot; fullerene C60; multiwalled carbon nanotubes; mesoporous carbon; impedance; dielectric; snow melting; capacitance; waveguide;

    Abstract : Interest in effects of carbonaceous particles in the atmosphere has recently taken an upswing due to knowledge of how these particles affect our environment. Carbonaceous aerosols are characterized by their dark color, giving them the ability to absorb both incoming and outgoing radiation of all wavelengths in the atmosphere. READ MORE
