1. 1. Insights Into Wind Profile Characteristics in the Arctic Marine Boundary Layer

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

   Author : Charlotte Sophie Gausa; [2024]
   Keywords : Arctic; wind profile power law; MOST; boundary layer; low level jets; sea ice; vindprofil; Arktis; gränsskikt; vindenergi; låghöjdsvindar; havsis;

   Abstract : The atmospheric boundary layer in the Arctic is essential for the understanding of climate change and improving regional weather prediction. The aim of this study is to investigate to which degree wind speed profiles retrieved in the Arctic agree with well known wind profile concepts and understand which local impact factors influence the wind speed profile.

3. 2. Exploring Attachment Dynamics: Implications for Overgeneralized Memory and Rumination

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

   Author : Ocean Bouey; [2024]
   Keywords : Overgeneralized memory; attachment anxiety; attachment avoidance; rumination; narrative memory task; Social Sciences;

   Abstract : Objective and Methods: This thesis investigates the relationship between insecure attachment (anxiety and avoidance), rumination, and overgeneralized episodic memory retrieval in nonclinical adults, addressing the potential moderating role of rumination in the attachment- overgeneralization link. A community sample of 41 Swedish-speaking women participated in a narrative memory task involving attachment and non-attachment narratives. READ MORE

4. 3. Modeling wave behavior with linear wave theory

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

   Author : Elsa Renström; [2024]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis aimed to look at the behaviours of the water beneath waves from a modeling and simulations point of view. We have investigated how to use Linear wave theory (LWT) to model the kinematic movements in water governed by free ocean waves. The model assumes the surface to consist of a superposition of sinusoidal waves. READ MORE

5. 4. Offshore Wind Farms in Norway : A Spatial Multi-Criteria Analysis for Optimal Site Location

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Adam Törnqvist; Vincent Edberg; [2024]
   Keywords : Offshore wind power; Spatial Multi-criteria Analysis; Renewable energy; Suit-ability map; Geographical Information System; Havsbaserad vindkraft; Spatial multikriterieanalys; Förnybar energi; Lämp-lighetskarta; Geografiskt informationssystem;

   Abstract : Recognizing the imperative transition towards renewable energy sources to combat climate change, this study explores the outlooks for offshore wind power in Norway, a country endowed with extensive coastlines and favourable wind conditions. The thesis sets out to support decision-making processes by synthesizing contemporary research and applying context-specific insights to the southern half of the Norwegian economic zone (NEZ) into a comprehensive Spatial-Multi-criteria Analysis (SMCA).
