  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. Investigation of Ice Nucleating Particles (INPs) in southern Sweden - With a special focus on their origin, possible connection to meteorological parameters and aerosol properties

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Malin Forsmalm; [2023-06-21]
    Keywords : INPs; DFA; LUCS;

    Abstract : This study investigates if there is a seasonal variability of ice nucleating particle (INP) concentrations. There is also a focus in seeing if there are correlations between meteorological parameters and aerosol properties and the measured INP concentrations. READ MORE

  4. 3. Seasonal Variability of Ice Nucleating Particles (INP) in Southern Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Tamina Kabir; [2023-03-08]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Cloud ice crystals are formed by ice-nucleating particles (INPs). The micro-physical properties of clouds, precipitation formation and the life cycle of clouds are strongly influenced by the presence or absence of ice. Therefore knowledge of atmospheric INP concentrations is crucial to improve weather forecasting and climate projections. READ MORE

  5. 4. 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

  6. 5. Evaluation of Heat Mapping Techniques – the Case of Linköping

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för tema; Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten

    Author : Pei Zhao; [2023]
    Keywords : correlation analysis; spatial analysis; land surface temperature LST ; mean radiant temperature MRT ; vulnerable population;

    Abstract : Land surface temperature (LST) and mean radiant temperature (MRT) are commonly used as proxies to evaluate urban heat environments. Many scholars use one of them to represent heat exposure when assessing the urban thermal environment. READ MORE
