  1. 21. Reconstructing the Long-Term Mass Balance of Brewster Glacier, New Zealand, Using a Degree-Day Approach

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Rikard Palmgren; [2017]
    Keywords : Mass balance; DDM; climate indicator; glacier; New Zealand; Massbalans; DDM; klimatindikator; glaciär; Nya Zeeland;

    Abstract : Varmare klimat är något som kontinuerligt påverkar glaciärer planeten över och har under det senaste århundrandet vidtagit en global ökning av negativa massbalanser. Denna trend kan bidra till variationer i havsnivån och orsaka problem med översvämningar över hela världen. READ MORE

  3. 22. GaSb nanowire transistors with process induced strain

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

    Author : Edvin Winqvist; [2017]
    Keywords : GaSb; gallium; antimonide; nanowire; transistor; strain; physics; thesis; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : With the constant downscaling of Si transistors reaching its limits, other alternatives have been actively researched the past decades. Group III-V semiconductors are excellent materials with generally high carrier mobilities that can replace Si in transistors. READ MORE

  4. 23. Quantifying the Shadow Effect between Offshore Wind Farms with Idealized Mesoscale Models and Observed Wind Data

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : David Werner; [2016]
    Keywords : Shadow effect; offshore wakes; atmospheric stability; analog ensemble; wake forecasting; idealized mesoscale modeling; Weather Research Forecast WRF model; downscaling; North Sea; Princes Amalia; Egmond aan Zee;

    Abstract : Two post processing methods for quantifying the shadow effect of the offshore wind farm Princes Amalia (PA) onto Egmond aan Zee (OWEZ) wind farm are analyzed and benchmarked. The first method is the author’s proposed shadow effect determination method (SEDM), which quantifies an offshore wind farm’s shadow effect based on mesoscale WRF (Weather Research Forecast) idealized modeling and the observed frequency of the analyzed site’s wind conditions.

  5. 24. Modeling the effect of roads and topoclimate on plant invasions in mountains : the case of Trifolium repens

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Nina Roth; [2016]
    Keywords : non-native plants; alpine; roadsides; SDM; downscaling climate; management;

    Abstract : Non-native species are a main cause for the global loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services. Mountain regions have been relatively spared from plant invasions up to now, mostly due to climatic restrictions and low human influence, with roads being the main pathways. READ MORE

  6. 25. Evaluation of Atomic Layer Etching Possibility at Lund Nano Lab

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Md Sabbir Ahmed Khan; [2016]
    Keywords : Atomic Layer Etching; Nanoimprint lithography; Nanowires; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In modern electronics, device downscaling demands atomic precision control and Atomic Layer Etching (ALE) can provide this prime capability with minute device damage. ALE, also known as layer-by-layer etching, is a technique of removing atomically thin layers from the surface of materials in a controlled way. READ MORE
