1. 1. Greenhouse gas emissions from peat soil thawing in spring : a comparison between fertilized and unfertilized soil

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

   Author : Fanny Otterlin Karlsson; [2024]
   Keywords : agricultural soil; carbon dioxide; freeze-thaw cycles; nitrous oxide; soil temperature; water content;

   Abstract : Peat soils drained for agriculture and forestry contribute to a significant amount of greenhouse gas emissions. Nitrous oxide is a greenhouse gas with high warming potential and agriculture in general accounts for about 70 % of nitrous oxide emissions. READ MORE

3. 2. Monitoring marine alien and invasive species. A comparison between the traditional method (eRAS) and DNA-based identification of species.

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

   Author : Josefin Holm; [2023-08-22]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : There is a major concern with the uncontrolled spreading of alien and invasive species, caused by an increase in travelling by boat globally. These are dispersed via ballast water, by fouling on ships and in fishing gear. READ MORE

4. 3. Hyperspectral and multispectral satellite data analysis of nitrogen in grazed and ungrazed tundra in Långfjället, Sweden

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Emma Dahlstedt; [2023-08-18]
   Keywords : Hyperspectral imaging; Imaging spectroscopy; Nitrogen; Reindeer; Herbivory; Tundra; Grazing;

   Abstract : Reindeer are a keystone species in the circumpolar north, where they hold great cultural and ecological importance. Continued climate change threatens the long-term sustainability of reindeer husbandry. Reindeer can affect the tundra landscape, influencing the soil nutrient cycling, including the soil nitrogen availability. READ MORE

5. 4. Energy in the Transportation System - A comparison of charging infrastructure scenarios

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

   Author : Judith Lai Jakobsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Charging infrastructure; road transport electrification; battery capacity need; electric vehicles; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : A functioning charging infrastructure is crucial for achieving full-scale national electrification within the transport sector. The system is likely to consist of different charging technologies, all with the main objective of providing efficient energy replenishment services. READ MORE

6. 5. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

   Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.
