  3. 32. Effects of fuel and weather conditions on forest fire behaviour in Southern Sweden in oak dominated forests

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Olga Teresa Wepryk; [2023]
    Keywords : forest fire; forest fuel; fire weather; ignition experiments; prescribed burning;

    Abstract : Fire activity is influenced by weather and climate, fuels, ignition agents, and human activities. Fire suppression policy in Sweden resulted in a gradual decrease in the annually burnt areas, changes in fuel loads and a decline in species diversity. READ MORE

  4. 33. Feasibility study of evaporative cooling and toilet flushing using rainwater in a public building

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Claudia Reig Moril; [2023]
    Keywords : Rainwater; Evaporative cooling; Toilet flushing; Energy; Water; Feasibility.; Regnvatten; Evaporativ kyla; Toalettspolning; Energi; Vatten; Genomförbarhet.;

    Abstract : The project "Feasibility of evaporative cooling and toilet flushing using rainwater in a public building" combines rainwater harvesting with the evaporative cooling technology and toilet flushing and explores the practicality and viability of implementing this innovative system in the city of Gothenburg, Sweden. This study comprehensively investigates various aspects related to water and energy, and the entire system is computationally modelled using the Equation Engineering Solver (EES) software. READ MORE

The investigation involves laboratory experiments and numerical simulations to analyse the impact of various parameters on the paper's characteristics. READ MORE

  6. 35. Short-Time Temporal Changes of CH4 Fluxes in Different Tropical Tree Species : In-situ research regarding methane emissions from inundation-adapted Amazonian tree species in Jardim Bot�nico do Rio de Janeiro.

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Tema Miljöförändring

    Author : Emelie Athley; [2023]
    Keywords : Methane CH4 ; environment; greenhouse gas GHG ; emission; Amazonian tree species; tropical trees; wetland; flux; CH4 emission from plants; tree mediated CH4 emission; Global CH4 budget; environmental stressors; meteorological parameters; natural CH4 emissions;

    Abstract : Methane (CH4) is guaranteed to affect climate change and is essential in rising temperatures. Scientists have known for over two decades that wetlands emit CH4 to such an extent that it affects our climate. Tropical trees that grow in wetlands tend to emit or act as a conduit of CH4, to the extent that it has a negative environmental impact. READ MORE
