  1. 16. PV Assessment and Analysis for Deploying a Municipality : wide Energy Community

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Författare :Rodrigo Peñaloza Andrade; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Renewable energy communities (REC) are an instrument that empowers consumers and helps them become prosumers in the energy transition to decarbonize the energy grid. The European Commission introduced the concept through the Renewable Energy Directive (RED2) in 2019. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Developing a Geographical Information System for a water and sewer network, for monitoring, identification and leak repair - Case study: Municipal Water Company of Naoussa, Greece

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Konstantinos Sourlamtas; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Water and sewer network; GIS; UAV; surveying; photogrammetry; orthophoto; geodatabase; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents the design and implementation of a Geographic Information System (GIS) for the Naoussa Municipality Water and Sewer Company for better water utility management. The methodology contained field data collection like the valves, sewer manholes, hydrometers, and hydrants in two ways, UAV photogrammetry, and traditional surveying, the georeferencing process, photogrammetric processing, the digitization of old paper maps and the geodatabase design.

  3. 18. Drought and Communal Violence : A study of the relationship between drought and communal violence in Kenya from 1997 to 2012

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning

    Författare :Tor Richardson Golinski; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Communal violence; communal conflict; economic grievances; drought;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores the impact of drought on communal violence, posing the research question: How does drought influence the occurrence of communal violence? Considering empirical evidence and theoretical postulations from previous research, economic grievances are introduced as a crucial factor in the causal pathway between drought and communal violence. Thus, two hypotheses are put forward to address the research question: incidences of communal violence will increase following droughts (H1), and an increase in economic grievances is associated with an increase in communal violence incidence in instances following drought (H2).

  4. 19. A sensory evaluation of swidden rye (Secale cereale) – how the taste of history and geographical location can play part in a sustainable food production

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Amanda Jonsson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Sustainable Development; Sensory science; Landrace; Terroir; Food system; Consumer science;

    Sammanfattning : Due to their resilience, durability, and broad genetic variations, increasing the production and consumption of landrace cereals has been highlighted as a solution to handle increasing environmental variability resulting from climate change. However, the consumption of landrace cereals remains low due to limited production and purchase availability for consumers. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Environmental consequences of mixed plastic recycling : Life cycle assessment of FAIR plastic system

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik
