  1. 16. A coupling method using CFD, radiative models and a surface model to simulate the micro-climate

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Joseph Vernier; [2023]
    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamics; Fluid Mechanics; Numerics; Micro-climate modeling; Radiation; Crop modeling; Photovoltaic panels;

    Abstract : The increasing demand for energy, depletion of fossil fuels, rising global warming, and greenhouse gas emissions have stimulated the need for widespread development and adoption of renewable energy sources (RES) worldwide. Among these sources, solar energy has emerged as a major contender to meet the growing demand. READ MORE

  3. 17. The Influence of Infiltration Capacity and Antecedent Soil Moisture Conditions on Urban Pluvial Flooding

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

    Author : Disa Barkefors; [2023]
    Keywords : Urban pluvial flood; 2D modelling; MIKE ; urban green area; soil moisture; Chicago Design Storm;

    Abstract : Urban pluvial floods occur during extreme rain events and both occurrence and magnitude of these floods are expected to increase. Preserving or constructing green areas in urban areas has been shown to mitigate and control these floods. READ MORE

  4. 18. Carabids as weed seed control agent : impact of soil cultivation on carabid weed seed regulation

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Author : Ellen Dahlgren; [2023]
    Keywords : weed seed predation; weed seed bank regulation; weed seed predation strength; seed predation strength; carabid beetles; tillage; piecewise structural equation model;

    Abstract : As weed seed predators, carabid beetles can regulate the weed seed bank within agricultural fields. Little is anyhow known about how weed seed bank regulation by carabids is affected by different tillage treatments with decreasing intensity, why this was here examined. READ MORE

  5. 19. Weather you like it or not : pre-season yield forecasting of malting barley with climate markers.

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Author : Elsa Rozenbeek; [2023]
    Keywords : Yield forecasting; extreme weather; pre-season forecasting; climate markers; climate predictors; climate patterns; model calibration; DSSAT; crop model;

    Abstract : Different means of yield forecasting have been investigated in many publications, although very few with a focus on pre-season forecasting. Climate change and the increasing risk of extreme weather events is a threat to food production, and early yield predictions could therefore be beneficial for farmer’s planning and management as a way towards more resilient food production.

  6. 20. Hybrid Simulations of Solar Wind Plasma Interaction with the Lunar Reiner Gamma Magnetic Anomaly

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : David Frisk Strömberg; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Moon has small scale regions of strong magnetic fields scattered over its surface, known as crustal fields. Coexisting with some of the strongest crustal fields are peculiar markings in the lunar soil, called lunar swirls, which are suggested to be formed by magnetosphere-like interactions between the crustal fields and the solar wind plasma.
