  1. 1. Drivers of sea level variability using neural networks

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Linn Carlstedt; [2023-05-10]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Understanding the forcing of regional sea level variability is crucial as many people all over the world live along the coasts and are endangered by extreme sea levels and the global sea level rise. The adding of fresh water into the oceans due to melting of the Earth’s land ice together with thermosteric changes has led to a rise of the global mean sea level with an accelerating rate during the twentieth century.

  3. 2. Seasonal Variability of Ice Nucleating Particles (INP) in Southern Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Tamina Kabir; [2023-03-08]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Cloud ice crystals are formed by ice-nucleating particles (INPs). The micro-physical properties of clouds, precipitation formation and the life cycle of clouds are strongly influenced by the presence or absence of ice. Therefore knowledge of atmospheric INP concentrations is crucial to improve weather forecasting and climate projections. READ MORE

    Keywords : Climate change; global warming; land snails; species composition;

    Abstract : With rising temperatures as a consequence of climate change, suitable habitats for land snails in the northern hemisphere may be shifting northwards. However, there is a lack of studies that explore the latitudinal effects that climate change has on land snails. READ MORE

  5. 4. Platsens betydelse för växtnäringsläckage från jordbruksmark i Sverige

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Frida Lundell; [2023]
    Keywords : kväve- och fosforutlakning; rumslig variation; långtidsövervakning;

    Abstract : Växtnäringsläckage av kväve (N) och fosfor (P) från jordbruksmark tillför näringsämnen till hav och vattendrag. Det är viktigt att minska transporten av N och P av flera anledningar, då det bland annat är en stor bidragande faktor till övergödning. READ MORE

  6. 5. 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.
