  1. 1. 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

  3. 2. ASSESSING MICROBIAL COMMUNITY RESPONSES IN A CHEMICALLY STRESSED FRESHWATER ECOSYSTEM USING ENVIRONMENTAL DNA

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Nicolai Laufer; [2023-06-21]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Microbial communities represent the fundamental cornerstones of riverine ecosystems because they are involved in numerous processes which mediate ecosystem services. However, riverine ecosystems are currently massively altered by a variety of anthropogenic activities which includes changes in landuse and chemical pollution. 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. LFA support in a changing climate : the interaction between the LFA support and drought periods on the use of agricultural land in Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Economics

    Author : Ella Jennersjö; [2023]
    Keywords : CAP; LFA; climate change; drought; agricultural land use;

    Abstract : With climate change follows an expectation of more extreme weather events, such as droughts, floods and change in seasonal shifts. How climate variability might impact Swedish agriculture and interact with existing policy aiming at keeping agricultural land in production is not well understood. READ MORE

  6. 5. Developing a Cost Model For Combined Offshore Farms : The Advantages of Co-Located Wind and Wave Energy

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Eva Blech; [2023]
    Keywords : Wave Energy; Floating Offshore Wind; Co-located Wind-Wave Farm; Levelized Cost of Energy; Multi-Source Offshore Farm; Vågenergi; flytande havsbaserad vindkraft; samlokaliserad vind- och vågpark; nivellerad energikostnad; havsbaserad park med flera källor;

    Abstract : Previous research has displayed that multi-source farms provide an opportunity to reduce the cost of energy and improve the energy output quality. This thesis assesses the cost competitiveness of co-located wind-wave farms, specifically floating offshore wind (FLOW) turbines and CorPower’s wave energy converters (WEC). READ MORE
