  1. 16. Definition and evaluation of a system for measuring local geomagnetic variations : Autonomous station for magnetic measurements

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Viktor Olsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Local Geomagnetic Variations; Fluxgate Magnetometer; Space Weather; Solar Wind; Magnetic Measurements; Variometer; Solar Activity.; Lokala geomagnetiska variationer; Fluxgate-Magnetometer; Rymdväder; Solvinden; Magnetiska Mätningar; Variometer; Solaktivitet.;

    Abstract : Earth is under constant influence of the Sun and phenomena driven by the solar wind that may affect man-made technology. These events are summarized under the concept of space weather. This creates variations in Earth’s magnetic field and nearby space. Space weather can affect power grids, gas pipelines and also have effects on human health. READ MORE

  3. 17. Multi-scale Bark Beetle Predictions Using Machine Learning

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Albert Øhrman Wellendorf; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Geographically weighted regression; bark beetle; machine learning; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Bark beetle attacks have led to widespread tree disturbance and deaths in many parts of the world, and thereby also economic and biodiversity losses. Forest-rich Sweden has experienced periodic attacks, latest in 2018. READ MORE

  4. 18. Simulating distributed PV electricity generation on a municipal level : Validating a model for simulating PV electricity generation and implementing it for estimating the aggregated PV generation in Knivsta Municipality

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljö

    Author : Lisa Molin; Sara Ericson; [2023]
    Keywords : photovoltaic generation model; model validation; artificial intelligence; machine learning; convolutional neural network; LIDAR;

    Abstract :   The deployment of distributed photovoltaic (PV) is accelerating worldwide. Understanding when and where PV systems will generate electricity is valuable as it affects the power balance in the grids. One way of obtaining this information is simulating the PV power production of systems detected in Remotely Sensed Data (RSD). READ MORE

    Abstract : Online shopping offers numerous benefits, but large product catalogs make it difficult for shoppers to understand the existence and characteristics of every item for sale. To simplify the decision-making process, online retailers use ranking models to recommend products relevant to each individual user. READ MORE

  6. 20. 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
