  1. 1. Comparative study of albedo and Ndvi. : Based on a vertical Agrivoltaic system and a reference control plot.

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Prasamsa Aryal; [2024]
    Keywords : Agrivoltaics; Albedo; NDVI; Linear correlation; Linear regression;

    Abstract : Agrivoltaic system combines solar energy and agriculture which is an effective way to utilize the lands full potential. Crops can be grown between vertical panels or under tilted panels among other designs. Combining solar panels and agriculture leads to optimization of space. READ MORE

  3. 2. Starshades: Geoengineering Solutions and Technosignatures in Direct Imaging Phase Curves

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

    Author : Claudia Skoglund; [2023]
    Keywords : Starshades; extraterrestrial intelligence; stellar evolution; technosignatures; phase curves; direct imaging; habitable zone.; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The stellar luminosity increases as a star evolves which inevitably yields a higher temperature on planets in orbit around the star. It is reasonable to assume that intelligent civilizations would tackle this issue through installing artificial structures that can alter the radiation received by the planet. READ MORE

  4. 3. James Webb Space Telescope Observations of Jupiter’s Moon Europa

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

    Author : Aulon Nura; Isac Engblom; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The creation of life has puzzled humanity since the dawn of time. With the launch of thecutting-edge James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) at last year's closing, the next step in humanity'ssearch for life has been taken. READ MORE

  5. 4. Changes in July albedo and its relationship with EVI over the last two decades in the Swedish alpine region

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Vera Grönvik Hende; [2023]
    Keywords : Shortwave albedo; Enhanced Vegetation Index EVI ; Alpine vegetation; Scandes; Surface albedo feedback; MODIS; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Vegetation in the subarctic is expected to respond to climate warming as its growth becomes less temperature limited. This has previously been recorded in the form of treeline advances and increasing shrub cover. Changes in vegetation cover may accelerate warming due to a decrease in summer albedo, in what is termed surface albedo feedback. READ MORE

  6. 5. The influence of the built environment on the climate in different Swedish urban fabrics

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknik

    Author : Reem Mutwali; [2023]
    Keywords : Urban heat island; Urban morphology; The urban weather generator;

    Abstract : The urban heat island effect is usually disregarded when considering energy-efficient measures for the built environment. This study aims to present and analyze the effect of the urban built environment on the Swedish urban climate. This analysis is done in terms of assessing the mean urban heat island and monthly average air temperature. READ MORE
