  1. 1. Modelling the Water Table in a Bog

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Tobias Bowley; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Over the past five years, an ongoing study at INES, Lund University, have examined the encroachment of trees and vegetation into a bog ecosystem in northern Scania, Sweden. While several factors have been identified as contributing to this ecological transformation, including, nutrient availability, and climate, the hydrological aspect remains a key area of investigation.

  3. 2. Evaluating the impact of agriculture on albedo using Sentinel-2 data in southern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Victor Andréasson; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical geography and ecosystem science; Remote sensing; Sentinel-2; Albedo; Agriculture; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : 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

  4. 3. Med havet i huvudrollen : fem narrativ om blå miljöers betydelse för hälsa och välbefinnande i utveckling av städer

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of People and Society

    Author : Karin Axelsson; [2022]
    Keywords : blå miljö; kustlandskap; kustområden; hälsa; översiktsplanering; förtätning; hållbar stadsutveckling; evidensbaserad stadsutveckling;

    Abstract : Såväl akademisk forskning som offentlig förvaltning av utemiljöer tenderar att domineras av ett intresse för gröna miljöer, där begrepp som grönstruktur, grönytor och grönområden är vanligt förekommande. Den här studien riktar strålkastarljuset mot blå miljöer och undersöker hur miljöer där vatten har en dominerande roll kan bidra till hälsa och välbefinnande för människor som bor i städer.

  5. 4. Improved Understanding of Water Balance in the Malwathu Oya River Basin Using SWAT and Remote Sensing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Alexander Fors; [2022]
    Keywords : actual evapotranspiration; Malwathu Oya; remote sensing; Sri Lanka; SWAT modelling; SWAT calibration; WaPOR; water balance; faktisk evapotranspiration; fjärranalys; Malwathu Oya; Sri Lanka; SWAT-modellering; SWAT-kalibrering; vattenbalans; WaPOR;

    Abstract : As the need for climatic data is increasing in times of climate change and water scarcity, remote sensing (RS) and hydrological modelling are ways to battle these problems, especially in data scarce areas. The actual evapotranspiration (ETa) is one of the key parameters when assessing the water balance and a good estimate of this parameter is thus of great importance. READ MORE

  6. 5. Creating, delivering, and capturing value through sustainability : an exploratory study on the early development of commercial aquaponics in Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Economics

    Author : Fardosa Farah; Rita Ndum; [2022]
    Keywords : aquaponics; business model; business model innovation; sustainability; sustainable innovation; sustainable business model innovation; aquaculture; recirculating aquaculture system;

    Abstract : Aquaculture is one of the fastest-growing food sectors in the world, and the increasing world population is said to only increase the need for more seafood. However, the sustainability of the aquaculture has been questioned recently and measures have been taken to overcome and internalize the negative externalities. READ MORE
