  1. 1. GIS and remote sensing based mapping of microtopography and vegetation composition in a boreal mire complex

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Nils Helge Havertz; [2023]
    Keywords : Microtopography modelling; Remote sensing; Boreal mixed mires; Object Based Image Analysis OBIA ; random forest RF ;

    Abstract : Small scale variations in mire surface elevation referred to as microtopography are fundamental characteristics of mire ecosystems especially in the boreal region. Microtopography commonly classified into hummocks and hollows play a major role in several ecological, hydrological and biogeochemical processes including vegetation composition and carbon and methane dynamics.

  3. 2. An Environmental (LCA) and economic assessment (LCC) of on-farm and centralized alternatives for biogas production for two Swedish farms in Götene

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Abdelali Ouakrim; [2023]
    Keywords : Life cycle assessment; LCA; life cycle costing; LCC; biogas; animal manure; biogas production; co-digestion;

    Abstract : Biogas production through anaerobic digestion is an important part towards the achievement of a bio-based and circular economy in Sweden. In fact, Swedish government proposed a strategy suggesting that biogas production should be increased from 2 TWh today to 7 TWh by 2030. READ MORE

  4. 3. Hydrogen-Methane combustion modeling in the burner of the SGT-800 Siemens Energy gas turbine

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Nikolaos Bozikis; [2022]
    Keywords : Engineering mechanics; fluid dynamics; CFD; combustion modeling; industrial gas turbines;

    Abstract : Industrial gas turbines constitute an integral part of today’s electricalpower production infrastructure. Reacting gas flows in these machines arevery interesting and complex in nature since they exhibit highly turbulentbehaviour which is strongly coupled to the chemical reaction dynamics. READ MORE

  5. 4. Greenhouse gas emissions from three large lakes during the autumn 2020

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för tema

    Author : Veronica Bohlin; Anja Anderö Nordqvist; [2021]
    Keywords : methane; carbon dioxide; dissolved inorganic carbon; pCO2; flux chambers; large lakes; methane budget; carbon budget; GHGs; freshwater; spatiotemporal; ebullition; diffusion; autumn; metan; koldioxid; upplöst oorganiskt kol; pCO2; kammarmetod; stora sjöar; metanbudget; koldioxidbudget; växthusgaser; sötvatten; spatiotemporal; ebullition; diffusion; höst;

    Abstract : Methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are two greenhouse gases and main drivers of global climate change. Lakes are known to be a source of CH4 and CO2 to the atmosphere. While the importance of these emissions is clear, their magnitudes and regulation are still uncertain due to the scarcity of flux measurement data from lakes. READ MORE

  6. 5. Greenhouse gas emissions from compacted peat soil

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Antonia Hartmann; [2021]
    Keywords : carbon dioxide; compression index; Peatland agriculture; recompression index; sand addition; soil compaction;

    Abstract : Cultivated peat soils are a main driver for CO2 and N2O emissions, while the gas fluxes are dependent on intrinsic soil properties and land use. Sand addition into peat soils might reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and enhance soil strength, and thus the ability to tolerate soil compaction. READ MORE
