1. mmWave Coverage Extension Using Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces in Indoor Dense Spaces
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Millimeter-wave (mmWave) is widely investigated for indoor communication scenarios thanks to the available rich spectrum. However, the shortened antenna size and the high frequency make mmWave extra sensitive to blockages. READ MORE

2. Changes in July albedo and its relationship with EVI over the last two decades in the Swedish alpine region
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Vegetation in the subarctic is expected to respond to climate warming as its growth becomes less temperature limited. This has previously been recorded in the form of treeline advances and increasing shrub cover. Changes in vegetation cover may accelerate warming due to a decrease in summer albedo, in what is termed surface albedo feedback. READ MORE

3. Using forest reflectance modelling to estimate albedo for narrow-view satellites
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : Surface albedo estimations from remote sensing are invaluable for energy balance descrip- tions in climate research. The aim of this work is to evaluate the possibility of using Sentinel-2 satellite data to get the total albedo of a small, vegetated area. READ MORE

4. Evaluating the impact of agriculture on albedo using Sentinel-2 data in southern Sweden
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : The climate impact of food production plays a big part in the anthropogenic climate impact. Mitigation strategies from this sector are hence of great importance. One area which mainly has been used to calculate climate impact is albedo, the overall reflectance of incoming radiation in all directions. READ MORE

5. Water born cooling of closed greenhouses : An enclosed vertical water curtain cooling system
University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknikAbstract : The greenhouses play a key role in food sustainable production, the purpose of the greenhouses is to make an artificial suitable environment to grow different kinds of plants. The cost of energy used in the greenhouses to ensure the optimum temperature, humidity, and CO2 concentration, makes up a large part of the final cost of food. READ MORE
