  1. 1. Evaluating the accuracy of NEWA, ERA5 and NORA3 in predicting onshore wind conditions: a comparative study using ICOS meteorological mast data in Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Svetlana Kuru; [2024]
    Keywords : NEWA; ERA5; NORA3; wind speed; wind distribution; correlation coefficient;

    Abstract : The ECMWF Reanalysis v5 (ERA5), the New European Wind Atlas (NEWA), and the 3 km Norwegian Reanalysis (NORA3) are reference datasets that are available for industry and research. The resolution of 3km in both the NORA3 and NEWA datasets sets them apart, while ERA5, with its 31km resolution, continues to serve as a reliable data source that is widely used in the industry.

  3. 2. Simulation of flooding and flood mitigation in the town of Söderköping using HEC-RAS : An investigation of floods and mitigation measures

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Andreas Hoppe; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This study examines the effects of flood management systems in an HEC-RAS simulation of recorded discharge in the town of Söderköping in Sweden by using easy-to-access and publicly available hydrological, landcover, and soil data. Two rivers and the precipitation of a chosen area are studied. READ MORE

  4. 3. Exploring patterns in risk factors for bark beetle attack during outbreaks triggered by drought stress with harvester data on attacked trees: A case study in Southeastern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Nikolaos Kouskoulis; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Forest ecosystems; Bark beetle outbreak; Southeastern Sweden; Predisposing factors; Triggering factors; Drought stress; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : ABSTRACT Raising temperatures and climate variability have intensified extreme weather events worldwide. These extremes can enhance and trigger possible pest outbreaks. Bark beetle attacks have become a major concern in regions with extensive spruce forest areas. Southeastern Sweden has faced repeated outbreaks resulting in widespread tree loss. READ MORE

  5. 4. Impact of wetland restoration on river discharge - A case study of Bråån, Skåne, Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Ardis Luda; [2023]
    Keywords : wetlands; wetland restoration; HYPE model; river discharge; Sweden; land use change; flooding; hydrological modeling; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Land use change is a factor not often considered when modeling river discharge in regard to future flood risk. The restoration of wetlands is an ongoing land use change which affects water storage capacity in the soils of a catchment and could lead to lower flows in rivers. READ MORE

  6. 5. The effect of autocorrelation when performing theapproximated permutation test

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Amerik Schouten; Linus Thor; [2023]
    Keywords : exchangeability assumption; Monte Carlo; temporal autocorrelation; type I error; simulation; re-sampling methods;

    Abstract : In meteorology, permutation tests are a commonly recommended tool because standard paramet-ric methods of inference often is insufficient when analysing weather. Therefore other methodswith less stringent assumptions like permutation testing is used. READ MORE
