  1. 6. Legacy effects of temperature alterations on microbial resistance and resilience to drying and rewetting

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Franklin Lee Harris; [2023]
    Keywords : microbial ecology; soil; carbon dynamics; high latitudes; climate change; moisture stress; isotopes; respiration; trait based ecology; soil microbes; Environmental Changes in High Latitudes EnCHIL ; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : With warming in soils due to climate change, a series of secondary factors arise, which have multifaceted effects on soil microbial communities. Of these, alterations to soil moisture are among the most crucial to understanding how microbial functions will change in the face of climate change. READ MORE

  3. 7. Testing aerosol vertical profiling methods with portable instruments on unmanned and manned aircraft

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Ellen Grace Soroka; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical Geography; Ecosystem Analysis; Aerosols; Vertical Profile; Black Carbon; PM2.5; Nanoparticles; UAV; Drone; Master degree thesis; 30 credits in Atmospheric Science Biogeochemical Cycles; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : This thesis employed several portable sensors on board an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and manned aircraft in order to test new methods of measuring vertical profiles of aerosol particles and contribute to knowledge of aerosol distributions in the atmosphere. More data in this area is required to improve atmospheric modelling and future climate scenarios. READ MORE

  4. 8. Mitigating Post-Harvest Losses in Bhutan through Solar Food Drying: Optimization and Analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign

    Author : Christian Rissler; [2023]
    Keywords : Solar dryer; Ginger; Drying; Bhutan; Heat exchanger; Heat storage; Solar absorber; Drying rate; Air flow; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Bhutan is the world’s most mountainous country which comes with some logistical difficulties. Due to slow transportation times and lackluster food preservation are the post-harvest losses high which especially affects the rural parts of Bhutan negatively. READ MORE

  5. 9. Effect of powder spray drying on catalyst formulation in tablet form

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Kajsa Wahlgren; [2023]
    Keywords : Spray dryer; Catalyst; Powder; Flowability; Chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Heterogenous catalysts consist of a large surface area support material applied with the catalytic active phase, and the activity of a catalyst is often correlated to the surface area per volume. Support materials often need to be processed further to be optimal for specific processes. READ MORE

  6. 10. Environmental factors affecting European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus) outbreaks in Sweden : Linking AI-detected dead spruce, soil moisture, nature protection and bark beetle outbreak (Ips typographus) in Sweden

    University essay from Karlstads universitet

    Author : Petter Hessle; [2023]
    Keywords : Ips typographus; Biology; forest; Norway spruce; Picea abies; European spruce bark beetle; Ecology; outbreak; Ai; Sweden; Biologi; ekologi; skog; Granbarkborre; gran; Ai; utbrott; naturvård; Ips typographus; sverige;

    Abstract : Norway spruce (Picea abies) is a vital tree species in Sweden's extensive forested landscape. However, the planting of spruce beyond its natural range has made it vulnerable to pests like the spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus), which has caused substantial damage to Swedish forests.
