1. 21. Svenska gårdsmejerier : en inblick i mejeriproduktion och användandet av starterkulturer

   University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

   Author : Emma Olofsson Laasonen; Emmy Nyberg; [2020]
   Keywords : mejeriproduktion; osttillverkning; gårdsmejerier; starterkulturer; komjölk; getmjölk; fårmjölk;

   Abstract : Mjölk och mejeriprodukter har alltid varit en viktig näringskälla världen över, och har en inverkan på både länders ekonomi såväl som hälsa. Produktionen av hantverksmässigt tillverkade ostar uppvisar en enorm variation och diversitet som har gett stora möjligheter för utveckling. READ MORE

3. 22. Implications of a rapidly thinning ice-margin for annual moraine formation at Gornergletscher, Switzerland

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

   Author : Lukas Rettig; [2020]
   Keywords : Recessional moraines; Ice-marginal processes; Glacier retreat; Glacial geomorphology; Glacial sedimentology; Alpine glaciers; Swiss Alps; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : This study examines genetic processes and climatological significance of annual moraine formation in the foreland of Gornergletscher, a large alpine-valley glacier located in the southern Swiss Alps. A particular focus is set on moraine ridges that have been forming between 2007 and 2019, a period when the glacier has been subject to accelerated retreat and pronounced frontal thinning. READ MORE

4. 23. Detection of slush on the Greenland Ice Sheet using Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite imagery

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Viktor Wu; [2020]
   Keywords : slush; Greenland Ice Sheet GrIS ; surface mass balance SMB ; sea level rise SLR ; satellite imagery; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Sea Level Rise (SLR) is a growing global concern that is heavily influenced by a warming climate. Because of a potentially large added mass to the ocean through ice melt, the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) plays an important role in the contribution to SLR. READ MORE

5. 24. Effects of snow-free season, temperature and radiation variations on the retreat of Linné glacier, Svalbard

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Juliano Hanna; [2020]
   Keywords : Glacier; Arctic; Svalbard; climate change; GIS; drone; air temperature and solar radiation; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Linné glacier has retreated approximately 1.8 km since 1936 and 1 km between 1995 and 2019. Linné glacier is following the same trend as other glaciers around Svalbard. Linné glacier is a well-monitored glacier with a time series of air temperature, incoming solar radiation and snow height data since 2003. READ MORE

6. 25. Evaluation of water stress mapping methods in vineyards using airborne thermal imaging

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Alon Zuta; [2020]
   Keywords : Geography; Geographical information systems; GIS; Remote sensing; Cover crop; Thermal imaging; Spatial variability; vineyards; interpolation; water stress index; CWSI; Ig; stem water potential; UAV; Rheingau; Interpolation.; Agriculture and Food Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences; Technology and Engineering; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : With low cost and high efficiency, use of airborne infrared thermography imaging from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has become a widely used technique to measure plant water stress. With that, the use of UAV mounted thermal camera as a precision agriculture technique to map crop water stress is not trivial and its success is depended on variety of factors which are still needed to be studied and understood.
