  1. 21. Design, implementation and evaluation of a daylight estimation tool using 3D city model data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Peter Nezval; [2021]
    Keywords : 3D city model; CityJSON; solar energy; free and open-source software; 3D feature extraction; solar urban planning; sustainable urban development; geomatics; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Solar energy is an important component of sustainable urban development. However, it is still not reaching its full potential due to several reasons. One of them is a lack of free tools based on open geodata capable of estimating solar energy (daylight) metrics on building features, e.g. READ MORE

  3. 22. Dataset Generation in a Simulated Environment Using Real Flight Data for Reliable Runway Detection Capabilities

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Emil Tagebrand; Emil Gustafsson Ek; [2021]
    Keywords : Neural Network; Convolutional Neural Network; CNN; Runway Detection; Landing Scenarios; Dataset Generation; Dataset; Dataset Augmentation; Object Detection; Aviation; ADS-B; Flight Data; Reliable Runway Detection; Simulated Environments; Automatic Annotation; Dataset Variation; Dataset Analysis;

    Abstract : Implementing object detection methods for runway detection during landing approaches is limited in the safety-critical aircraft domain. This limitation is due to the difficulty that comes with verification of the design and the ability to understand how the object detection behaves during operation. READ MORE

  4. 23. Testing the potential to evaluate vegetation optical depth with ecosystem water dynamics in a temperate forest

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Ainahu Abdul Hamid; [2021]
    Keywords : Physical geography; Ecosystem analysis; Vegetation optical depth; Temperate Forest; Climate; LPJ-GUESS; Evapotranspiration; Leaf water potential; Isohydricity; Hydraulic failure; Carbon starvation; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Warming trends have been associated with drought which induces and heightens agents and factors that cause tree mortality. Remotely sensed observations are increasingly being used in vegetation studies and are obtained from Earth observation satellites. READ MORE

  5. 24. Consumption of sustainable food products : A study of the Sustainable purchase perception matrix and Sustainable lead consumers; A life cycle assessment of BäR smoothie

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Cecilia Melén; Mirea Wolff; [2021]
    Keywords : Compromise; Confidence; WTP; PCE; Sustainable lead consumer; Sustainability marketing; Scepticism; Life cycle assessment; LCA; Environmental impact; Global warming; Eutrophication; Primary energy use; Smoothie; Kompromiss; Självförtroende; WTP; PCE; Hållbar marknadsföring; Skepticism; Livscykelanalys; LCA; Miljöpåverkan; Global uppvärmning; Övergödning; Primärenergianvändning; Smoothie;

    Abstract : Part 1 The scientific community has identified an attitude-action gap for demographic and psychographic variables when studying sustainable purchase behaviour. By focusing on what happens during the purchase instead of the purchaser, this cross-sectional study aims to understand sustainable purchase behaviour when consumers purchase sustainable food.

  6. 25. Multi-level policy in the Baltic Sea : An Environmental Policy Integration analysis of the Swedish Exclusive Economic Zone

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Samhällsvetenskap

    Author : Johan Miyatani; [2021]
    Keywords : Baltic Sea policy; Policy objectives; Environmental Policy Integration; Frame analysis; Thematic analysis; Environmental policy objectives; Energy policy objectives; Security policy objectives; Nord Stream pipelines; Östersjöpolitik; Politiska mål; Miljöpolicyintegrering; Ramanalys; Tematisk analys; Miljömål; Energimål; Säkerhetsmål; Rörledningarna Nord Stream;

    Abstract : It is no secret that policy, to a large degree, informs what policy objectives should and can be pursued given a sector or policy domain. However, what happens when multiple levels of policy exist and regulate the same geographical area? The present study explores how complex multi-leveled policy areas affect Environmental Policy Implementation (EPI) and what happens when policy objectives from one level stand against policy objectives on another.
