6. Evaluating the impact of agriculture on albedo using Sentinel-2 data in southern Sweden
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : The climate impact of food production plays a big part in the anthropogenic climate impact. Mitigation strategies from this sector are hence of great importance. One area which mainly has been used to calculate climate impact is albedo, the overall reflectance of incoming radiation in all directions. READ MORE

7. Life Cycle Assessment of Borehole Thermal Energy Storage
University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikAbstract : Borehole thermal energy storage (BTES) is a technology used to store energy between seasons. It could therefore be a solution to the seasonal mismatch between the use and production of (renewable) energy, which can be used to increase energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

8. Estimation of dissolved organic carbon from inland waters using remote sensing data and machine learning
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : This thesis presents the first attempt to estimate Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC) in inland waters over a large-scale area using satellite data and machine learning (ML) methods. Four ML approaches, namely Random Forest Regression (RFR), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Gaussian Process Regression (GPR), and a Multilayer Backpropagation Neural Network (MBPNN) were tested to retrieve DOC using a filtered version of the recently published open source AquaSat dataset with more than 16 thousand samples across the continental US matched with satellite data from Landsat 5, 7 and 8 missions.

9. The importance of forest forage resources and a landscape perspective, managing bumblebees (Bombus) in Swedish forest-farmland
University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och kvartärgeologi (INK)Abstract : The Swedish forest has been transformed during the last hundred years, from semi-open forest of multiple tree species to dense production forest of mainly spruce and pine. This has led to alterations of species composition in the forest floor, reducing coverage of dwarf shrubs like Vaccinium myrtillus (European blueberry). READ MORE

10. Methane tree stem flux over the course of the spring flood : Spatial and temporal effects in a boreal riparian zone
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskapAbstract : Methane (CH4) tree stem-atmosphere flux is viewed as a new frontier in the global carbon cycle and may be of great importance. The effect on flux from different tree species, forest ecosystems and seasons is still uncertain. READ MORE
