  1. 21. Structural investigation of ductile deformations across the Frontal Wedge south of Lake Vättern, southern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Ellinor Halvarsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Frontal wedge; deformation zone; Sveconorwegian orogeny; Sveconorwegian Orogen; Eastern Segment; shear-sense indicators; Protogine zone; structural geology; bedrock geology; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Deformationszonen kallad ”Frontal wedge” är ett system av N-S branta och vertikala deformationszoner i gränsen mellan Svekonorvegiska och Sekorareliska provincen, i södra Sverige. Ursprung av dessa strukturer är inte fullt förstått och under de senaste årtiondena har endast ett fåtal undersökningar gjorts på dessa deformationszoner. READ MORE

  3. 22. Modelling the global water cycle – the effect of Mg-sursassite on the amount of globally subducted water

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Nils Benjamin Gies; [2021-07-05]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Subduction of hydrated lithospheric mantle is the most important process regarding the transfer of significant amounts of water to depths exceeding 350 km. Hence, the interplay of the thermal structure within the subducted slab together with the PT-stability fields of hydrous ultra-high pressure phases control the dehydration of the slab and the amount of water transported into the deeper mantle.

  4. 23. Numerical Analysis of Yield Curves Implied by Two-Factor Interest Rate Models

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för matematiska vetenskaper

    Author : Veronika Chronholm; [2021-06-15]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Abstract We investigate the yield curves implied by coupon bonds in models where the market short rate is given by a two-factor stochastic model. Specifically, we investigate generalisations of the two-factor Vasicek, Cox-Ingersoll-Ross, and mixed models where the two Brownian motions that feature in each model are allowed to have nonzero constant correlation.

  5. 24. Simulation Testbed for Liquid Chromatography

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : David Andersson; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The stlc package is proposed as a tool for simulation of liquid chromatography by implementing several lumped kinetic models which combine diffusive mass  transport and adsorption isotherm equations. The purpose of the package is to provide computationally efficient approximations to the general rate model of chromatography. READ MORE

  6. 25. Topographic controls of drought impact on Swedish primary forests

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Johanna Asch; [2021]
    Keywords : Physical geography; ecosystem analysis; primary forest; boreal forest; drought impact; topography; drainage; climate change; random forest; terrain index; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Anthropogenic climate change has increased the frequency of extreme drought events and leads to “hotter” droughts. Topography controls plant available water and site-specific climatic conditions. Drought sensitivity may therefore vary over short distances between wet and dry locations of the landscape. READ MORE
