1. 1. An Algorithm for Sampling from Bandlimited Circular Probability Distributions

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Mattias Olofsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Matematisk Statistik;

   Abstract : In this Bachelor thesis, a novel algorithm for sampling from bandlimited circular probability distributions is presented. The algorithm leverages results from Fourier analysis concerning the Fejér kernel to simulate data with some desired probability distribution, realized as a sum of data sampled from a discrete distribution and a small continuous perturbation sampled from the Fejér kernel distribution.

4. 3. Monitoring deforestation in the Serranía de Chiribiquete in northern Colombian Amazon using time series analysis of satellite data

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Yuyang Qian; [2023]
   Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; CCDC; Forest loss; Landsat; Sentinel-1; Change detection; NNP; FARC; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Deforestation monitoring is of significant importance for the ecosystem, climate change,and policy-making. The availability of optical and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite remote sensing images, along with the development of time series change detection methods, has contributed to the increasing popularity of time series analysis in forest disturbance monitoring.

5. 4. Wildfire growth modelling in Sweden - a suitability assessment of available data

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Henrik Hagelin; [2023]
   Keywords : Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Physical geography; Prometheus; WiSE-FASS; The 2014 Västmanland wildfire; Wildfire growth modelling; Wildfire suppression support; Wildfire behaviour; MESAN; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Wildfires are worldwide problems that stress societies by damaging their economies and they cause serious, sometimes fatal, health implications among the populations. In recent years, the rate of wildfire occurrence has increased as the global average temperature has risen. Because of global climate change, this rate is expected to continue rising. READ MORE

6. 5. Operating procedures and evaluation of a carbon capture pilot plant

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

   Author : Isac Logeke; [2023]
   Keywords : Carbon Capture and Storage; CCS; AMP DMSO; amine absorption; pilot plant; operating procedures; chemical engineering; Chemistry;

   Abstract : The rise in global emissions of carbon dioxide and the need for new technologies to combat climate change has prompted extensive research into carbon capture methods. This master thesis focuses on a novel carbon capture absorption technology, developed at Lund University, that utilizes the amine 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) in the organic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to capture CO2.
