  3. 17. Modelling nitrogen balance in two Southern Swedish spruce plantations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Johannes Loer; [2016]
    Keywords : maximum bearable nitrogen input rate; atmospheric deposition; nitrogen saturation; forest fertilisation; ForSAFE; Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Emissions from agriculture and the combustion of fossil fuels increase the atmospheric load of reactive nitrogen (N). N deposition is projected to continue posing significant harm both for environmental and human health over the upcoming decades. Eutrophication as a result of N leaching is one of the negative effects of heavy deposition. READ MORE

  4. 18. Assessment of numerical integration schemes and boundary conditions for Lagrangian tracking of marine debris

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

    Author : Joel Kronborg; [2016]
    Keywords : Lagrangian tracking; PARCELS; Runge-Kutta; time stepping; boundary conditions; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : A growing environmental issue today is the amount plastic pollution in the ocean. To investigate how it might affect marine life, an important aspect is to study how plastics are transported by ocean currents and where it ends up. This can be done by use of Lagrangian simulation of plastic particles in computer ocean models. READ MORE
