  1. 1. The atmospheric effects of Southern Ocean open-ocean polynyas onto the coastal polynyas from EC-Earth3

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Jakob Gunnarsson; [2023-05-10]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Polynyas are recurring areas of open water or thin ice within the sea ice pack, which alter the local oceanatmosphere heat and moisture exchange. They are differentiated as coastal (latent heat) or open-ocean (sensible heat) polynya according to their formation process. READ MORE

  3. 2. Can ancient pathogens emerging from glaciers and permafrost reach Europe by aerosolization?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Anna Bruhn; [2023]
    Keywords : Ancient pathogens; Greenland; Aerosolized pathogens; Aerosol transport; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Glaciers and permafrost capture bacteria and viruses when they form, which can be suspended for millennia. This includes long since extinct pathogens which are functionally novel. As polar regions get warmer these pathogens will emerge and spread through the local ecosystem, potentially altering it. READ MORE

  4. 3. Analysis of High and Low Rossby Wave Phase Speed Events Over Northern Mid-Latitudes

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Emma Rosengren; [2022]
    Keywords : Rossby waves; phase speed; atmospheric blocking; storm track; windstorms; Rossbyvågor; fashastighet; atmosfärisk blockering; lågtrycksbana; vindstormar;

    Abstract : The large-scale, mid-latitude circulation in the upper troposphere is dominated by Rossby waves. The jet stream flows along the wave structure and surface cyclones can be found ahead of the troughs of the waves, propagating eastward. READ MORE

  5. 4. High Sampling Resolution Luminescence Dating of Loess in Brittany, France

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Vanda Jakabová; [2021]
    Keywords : aeolian dust; loess; luminescence; dMAR; Brittany; LGM; palaeoenvironment; eoliskt damm; loess flygmo ; luminescens; dMAR; Bretagne; LGM; paleomiljö;

    Abstract : Aeolian dust is an important but poorly understood component of the climate system, which both responds to and drives global climate. Recently, dust produced at the high latitudes is also gaining attention as a possible contributor to the atmospheric dust load. READ MORE

  6. 5. Planetary Boundary Layer Height Variations Over the Tibetan Plateau in Relation to Local Climate Variables and Large-Scale Circulation

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Nils Slättberg; [2020-09-09]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere, the planetary boundary layer (PBL), may reach extremely high above the Tibetan Plateau (TP). Moreover, the TP is a hotspot region for climate interactions, exerting far-reaching in uences on atmospheric conditions. READ MORE
