1. 1. Application of Fourier Transforms to time-resolved ambient pressure spectroscopy operando studies of CO oxidation over Pt(111)

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik

   Author : Grigore-Leon Ratiu; [2024]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The study of heterogeneous catalysis has important implications in increasing the efficiency of industrial processes and in reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases from sources such as automobiles. A reaction with high industrial relevance is the oxidation of CO on noble metal catalysts. READ MORE

3. 2. Modelling the Water Table in a Bog

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Tobias Bowley; [2023]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Over the past five years, an ongoing study at INES, Lund University, have examined the encroachment of trees and vegetation into a bog ecosystem in northern Scania, Sweden. While several factors have been identified as contributing to this ecological transformation, including, nutrient availability, and climate, the hydrological aspect remains a key area of investigation.

4. 3. Weather and Firm Production in Europe

   University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

   Author : Hanna Johansson; Leo Ljunggren; [2023]
   Keywords : Climate change; Weather; Firm Production; Europe; Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics;

   Abstract : With exceeding risks of climate change damages, the economical implications of changes in weather patterns for firm production have become increasingly important. Up until now, a European setting and more time relevant data have been missing in current research analyzing such implications, which is where this thesis resolves such shortcomings. READ MORE

5. 4. Wildfire growth modelling in Sweden - a suitability assessment of available data

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Henrik Hagelin; [2023]
   Keywords : Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Physical geography; Prometheus; WiSE-FASS; The 2014 Västmanland wildfire; Wildfire growth modelling; Wildfire suppression support; Wildfire behaviour; MESAN; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Wildfires are worldwide problems that stress societies by damaging their economies and they cause serious, sometimes fatal, health implications among the populations. In recent years, the rate of wildfire occurrence has increased as the global average temperature has risen. Because of global climate change, this rate is expected to continue rising. READ MORE

6. 5. Climate and economic implications of structure and façade materials on a building's life cycle performance : A case study of a multi-family building in Sweden

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljö

   Author : Maximilian Jatzkowski; [2023]
   Keywords : life cycle assessment; life cycle analysis; multi-family building; life cost analysis; facade; environmental analysis; livscykelanalys; miljöanalys; flerbostadshus; livskostnadsanalys; stomme; fasad;

   Abstract : This study has been conducted in cooperation with OBOS Kärnhem. The objective of the study is to assess environmental impacts from different structural and facade materials to find a configuration with the lowest impact, and to assess the economic implications of different structural and façade materials.
