  1. 1. Modelling the Impact of Climate and Socio-Economic Changes on Nutrient Dynamics in the Catchment of Lake Vomb

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Yanhe Zhou; [2023]
    Keywords : Climate change; hydrological modelling; nutrient; RCP; socioeconomic development; SSP; SWAT; water quality modelling;

    Abstract : Climate change and socio-economic development are greatly affecting the quality of freshwater, especially the excessive accumulation of nutrients (N and P), which eventually leads to the occurrence of eutrophication. Lake Vomb is one of the main sources of drinking water in southern Sweden and the nutrient load from the catchment makes it a eutrophic lake with recurring algal blooms. READ MORE

  3. 2. Machine learning-assisted image analysis and metabarcoding for monitoring of plankton in the seas surrounding Sweden

    University essay from KTH/Industriell bioteknologi

    Author : Karin Garefelt; [2023]
    Keywords : Imaging FlowCytobot; imaging-in-flow cytometry; plankton imaging; convolutional neural network; metabarcoding; Imaging FlowCytobot; flödesmikroskopi; övervakning av plankton; konvolutionella neuronnät; DNA-streckkodning;

    Abstract : I miljöövervakningen av haven runt Sverige har manuell mikroskopi av plankton länge varit den huvudsakliga tekniken för att övervaka växtplanktonbestånden och algblomningar. Nya tekniker utvärderas, men det är inte känt hur resultaten från de nyare teknikerna relaterar till varandra. READ MORE

  4. 3. Impact of Sea Surface Temperature and Salinity on Phytoplankton blooms phenology in the North Sea

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Krystyna Muszel; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; North Sea; phytoplankton; bloom; phenology; remote sensing; TIMESAT software; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Various environmental forcings can affect phytoplankton blooms, resulting in changes in bloom timing and abundance, which can have many far-reaching consequences. Understanding bloom phenology is crucial to predict and counter any potential harmful changes. READ MORE
