1. 1. Climate, Irrigation, and GHGs : a Regional Analysis of EU Arable Land Values

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Economics

   Author : Filip Markovic; [2024]
   Keywords : air pollution; climate change; EU; global warming; irrigation; land value;

   Abstract : This master's thesis explores the influence of climate conditions on EU arable land values, pioneering a novel approach that blends the Ricardian Approach models within an Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) framework. By employing this methodology at the regional level of NUTS2, the study offers insights into the interplay between climate and land value. READ MORE

3. 2. Exploring Urban Land Cover Changes and the Effect on Nocturnal Air Temperature Dynamics in Helsingborg - A temperature modeling made with TAPM

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Amanda Bäck; [2023-10-09]
   Keywords : Nocturnal Air Temperature; Intra-Urban Heat Island; Land Cover Classification; Deep learning; The Air Pollution Model TAPM ; Land Cover Change;

   Abstract : In light of increasing global temperatures, urban areas face growing challenges related to heat stress. Alterations in land cover (LC) within cities contribute to changes in the intra-urban climate, predominantly driven by the replacement of vegetated surfaces with impermeable materials. READ MORE

4. 3. Refining the particulate matter airway deposition arising from indoor cooking-related biomass combustion for children in the Haramaya district in Ethiopia

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

   Author : Kasper Malmborn; [2023]
   Keywords : Air pollution exposure; charcoal; wood; animal dung; low-income setting epidemiology; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Background: Air pollution, a global issue affecting millions of individuals, is linked to adverse health effects on the respiratory system, but also to e.g., cancer and cardiovascular ailments. In low-income countries, cooking is often conducted by biomass-combustion, causing women and children to be exposed to high levels of indoor air pollution. READ MORE

5. 4. Utilization of Biomethane in Decarbonising India´s Energy Mix

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Keywords : Anaerobic digestion; biogas; biomethane; membrane filtration; pressure swing adsorption; Anaerob rötning; biogas; biometan; membranfiltrering; trycksvängadsorption;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates the potential of biomethane production in India, the impact of its integration into the energy mix, and the corresponding Greenhouse Gases (GHG) emission and potential reduction. India, with its huge population and being an agriculturally rich country, produces gigantic amounts of biodegradable waste from various sources such as Municipal Solid Waste (MSW),agricultural waste, animal husbandry, sugar industry, etc. READ MORE

6. 5. Hardware Subsystem Proposal of an Off-Vehicle Battery Analyzer from a Charging/Discharging Perspective

   University essay from Högskolan Väst/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

   Author : Rinor Gashi; Tim Johansson; [2023]
   Keywords : battery electric vehicles; power conversion module; off-vehicle battery packs;

   Abstract : Electric Vehicles (EVs) are seen as one of the solutions to some of the world’s global current problems, such as global warming and air pollution, due to non-existent operational emissions and increased efficiency. There are multiple types of EVs, one of them being Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) which in most cases utilizes a Li-Ion battery pack as energy storage. READ MORE
