   Author : Thibault Desjonquères; [2022]
   Keywords : Glaciers; Glaciology; Svalbard; Geophysics; Superimposed Ice; Foxfonna; Geology.; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The processes of meltwater storage in firn and the impact of refreezing on firn-coveredglaciers have been investigated on the Greenland ice-sheet. On Svalbard, climate changepromotes the disappearance of firn on glaciers. READ MORE

3. 7. Methane tree stem flux over the course of the spring flood : Spatial and temporal effects in a boreal riparian zone

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

   Author : Elin Berg; [2022]
   Keywords : Methane; tree stem flux; boreal forest; riparian zones; spring flood;

   Abstract : Methane (CH4) tree stem-atmosphere flux is viewed as a new frontier in the global carbon cycle and may be of great importance. The effect on flux from different tree species, forest ecosystems and seasons is still uncertain. READ MORE

4. 8. Application of HEC-HMS modelling on River Storån,Model evaluation and analysis of the processes by using soil moisture accounting loss method

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Pooja Makki Vijayaprakash; [2021]
   Keywords : River Storån; HEC-HMS; SMA; streamflow; baseflow; evapotranspiration; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : River Storån, a major tributary of Lake Bolmen which is a source of fresh water to Skåne county of Sweden is found to alter the color of water in the lake due to the presence of natural organic matter. Hence it is of utmost importance to study the river to understand the dynamics of generation and flow of water from the river to the lake. READ MORE

5. 9. Urban stormwater ponds: Evaluation of heavy metals and organic pollutants in stormwater and stormwater sediments

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Felix Karlsson; [2021]
   Keywords : Urban stormwater; Stormwater ponds; Stormwater sediment; Heavy metals; Organic pollutants;

   Abstract : Urban runoff is generated by precipitation of rain and snowmelt on impervious surfaces.  The increasing demand of urbanization causes contaminants to accumulate on roads,  roofs and pathways. In turn, as runoff wash off these surfaces, contaminants such as heavy metals, particles and organic pollutants end up in the stormwater. READ MORE

6. 10. Vegetation-climate interactions in California – an in-depth analysis on the influence of climatic events across different Californian biomes

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Felipe Fileni; [2021]
   Keywords : droughts; climate vegetation interactions; SPEI; NDVI; California;

   Abstract : It is widely accepted that climate variability is a key driver of vegetation productivity. Yet, there are discrepancies on the ideal timescales of climatic events and vegetation response. The work herein attempts to clarify how those variables interact in the region of California. READ MORE
