  1. 21. Monitoring of heat exchanges in thesnowpack of Foxfonna glacier, Spitzbergen,Svalbard.

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

    Author : Thibault Desjonquères; [2022]
    Keywords : Glaciers; Glaciology; Svalbard; Geophysics; Superimposed Ice; Foxfonna; Geology.; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The processes of meltwater storage in firn and the impact of refreezing on firn-coveredglaciers have been investigated on the Greenland ice-sheet. On Svalbard, climate changepromotes the disappearance of firn on glaciers. READ MORE

  2. 22. Impacts of peatland drainage on soil properties : a study of drainage effects on boreal peatlands in northern Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Frederika Klaus; [2022]
    Keywords : Boreal peatlands; Bulk density; Carbon; Greenhouse gas; Isotopes; Nitrogen; Organic matter; Peatlands; Peatland drainage; Peatland restoration;

    Abstract : Peatlands cover approximately 3% of the terrestrial surface on Earth and perform several important ecosystem functions, such as carbon storage and water retention. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, approximately 2 million hectares of peatlands in Sweden were drained to manage the land for forestry and agriculture. READ MORE

  3. 23. Investigating the dynamics controlling dissolved organic matter bioreactivity in agricultural stream water and its link to carbon evasion : A statistical analysis

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Sara Schützer; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : While streams and rivers emit large quantities of CO2 to the atmosphere, both the mechanisms controlling CO2 evasion as well as the sources of CO2 are still uncertain. One potential source of stream CO2 is in-stream degradation of dissolved organic matter (DOM). READ MORE

  4. 24. Peatland restoration: A mossy affair? : The similarities of the vegetation communitiesbetween restored bogs and natural bogs.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Liesbeth van Ravenhorst; [2022]
    Keywords : Wetland; peatland; bog; vegetation composition; plant functional trait; environmental variable;

    Abstract : Peatlands function as important global carbon sinks as peatlands store 30% to 40% of the total soil carbon even though peatlands only cover 3% of the Earth's terrestrial surface. However, drainage activities have damaged the ecosystem and caused many peatlands to function as carbon sources instead. READ MORE

  5. 25. 5G Security Issues: A Compilation with Industry Insight

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Albert Severo Téllez Martínez; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : After a preliminary literature review regarding 5G security issues, there did not seem to be any suggestions or consensus regarding which of these issues should be resolved with a higher priority than others. This started the following project in which a delphi study as well as a more in-depth literature review were carried out in order to find what 5G security issues affected 5G as a whole. READ MORE
