  1. 11. Lantsorter och moderna sorter av vårvete : effekt av gödsling och miljö

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Author : Anders Lööv; [2022]
    Keywords : lantsorter; vårvete; lantvete; kulturspannmål; ekologisk odling;

    Abstract : Lantsorter har tillskrivits flera goda agronomiska egenskaper som att vara anpassningsbara till rådande odlingsförutsättningar, effektivt vatten- och näringsupptag, förmåga att stå emot hög värme och torka, samt god ogräskonkurrensförmåga. Kvalitetsegenskaper som protein- och glutenhalt beskrivs vara särskilt höga och bakningsegenskaperna goda. READ MORE

  3. 12. MICRO-CLIMATE CHARACTERIZATION OF COMFORT MATERIALS : A CLIMATE ANALYSIS OF HIGH RESILIENCE FOAM IN MICRO-CLIMATE CONDITIONS

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Framtidens energi

    Author : Ullas Siddachary; [2022]
    Keywords : High resilience; high density; foam; operational energy; comfort; materials; temperature; heat index; vapor pressure; humidity; PCR coating;

    Abstract : Currently, it is widely recognised that the operational energy consumption of most building types currently outweighs their embodied energy by some margin. However, as we make dramatic increases in energy efficiency the embodied energy of the materials and components that we use will become proportionally larger and may account for a substantial proportion of the energy associated with buildings in the future.

  4. 13. Individuella skillnader i hägnutnyttjande och solande hos strålsköldpaddor som hålls i grupp

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Johan Deander; [2021]
    Keywords : strålsköldpadda; Astrochelys radiata; hägnutnyttjande; elektivitetsindex; solande; UV-ljus; temperaturreglering; djurpark;

    Abstract : The thermal environment is of great importance to all animals, but even more so for ectothermal species that are dependent on external heat provision. Surrounding temperature can be linked to the behaviour and welfare of the animals and the artificial heat and light sources in captivity must be of high quality to enable physiological function, natural behaviour and good health.

  5. 14. The hot and cold cow : a stochastic production frontier analysis of the effect of temperature and income diversification in Swedish dairy farms.

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Economics

    Author : Sanae Sone Dy; [2021]
    Keywords : dairy farms; income diversification; diversification; Simpson’s index; temperature;

    Abstract : This thesis examines if Swedish dairy farms between 2005-2016, that diversify into unconventional income opportunities, can cushion a possible negative effect from increase in the mean temperature in Sweden. Dairy cows are sensitive to increases in temperature and could suffer from both heat and cold stress. READ MORE

  6. 15. Planetary Boundary Layer Height Variations Over the Tibetan Plateau in Relation to Local Climate Variables and Large-Scale Circulation

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Nils Slättberg; [2020-09-09]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere, the planetary boundary layer (PBL), may reach extremely high above the Tibetan Plateau (TP). Moreover, the TP is a hotspot region for climate interactions, exerting far-reaching in uences on atmospheric conditions. READ MORE
