  1. 1. DIFFERENCES ON THE IMPACTS AND ORIGINS OF POLLEN IN FOUR MAJOR SWEDISH CITIES BETWEEN 2014 AND 2019

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Jean-Patrick Ridet-Lagorce; [2024-02-12]
    Nyckelord :Pollen; Allergy; Antihistaminic; Airborne transport; Geographical origins;

    Sammanfattning : Allergies are widespread in the world and coming from various sources, one of the causes being airborne allergens and especially, pollen. The negative impact of pollen is enhanced by pollution and climate change which are some of the biggest issue humankind is facing today. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Åtgärder mot förhöjda halter av per- och polyfluorerade alkylsubstanser (PFAS) i dagvatten : Styrande mål och riktvärden

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå,

    Författare :Felicia Hagberg; [2024]
    Nyckelord :PFAS; PFCA; PFSA; stormwater; guidelines; foam fractionation; activated carbon; anion exchangers; PFAS; PFCA; PFSA; dagvatten; riktvärden; åtgärder; skumfraktionering; aktivt kol; jonbytare;

    Sammanfattning : Stormwater is a significant transport medium for pollutants to recipients located near cities. Substances commonly found in stormwater include nutrients, metals, organic substances and particles. A group of pollutants detected in stormwater are per- och polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).

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

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Tamina Kabir; [2023-03-08]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Can ancient pathogens emerging from glaciers and permafrost reach Europe by aerosolization?

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

    Författare :Anna Bruhn; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Ancient pathogens; Greenland; Aerosolized pathogens; Aerosol transport; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Glaciers and permafrost capture bacteria and viruses when they form, which can be suspended for millennia. This includes long since extinct pathogens which are functionally novel. As polar regions get warmer these pathogens will emerge and spread through the local ecosystem, potentially altering it.

  5. 5. Validering av Ecolego för modellering i enlighet med PSA nivå 3 : Beräkning av markdeposition av radionuklider vid fiktiv svår härdskada vid Forsmarks kärnkraftverk

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Författare :Olivia Winestedt; [2022]
    Nyckelord :PSA nivå 3; Probabilistisk säkerhetsanalys; Ecolego; GPM;

    Sammanfattning : The scope of this project is to investigate if the software Ecolego is suitable for creating models in accordance with level 3 PSA, with the goal of creating a model calculating the possible outcomes for the radiological impact at 20 km distance resulting from a fictional severe nuclear accident at the Forsmark Nuclear Power Plant. This report aims to answer the questions “What is the concentration on the ground (kBq/m2), at a distance of 20 km, 30 days and 10 years after the fictional severe nuclear accident, with and without filtered venting” and “Is Ecolego a suitable software for level 3 PSA models?” The source term for the fictional severe nuclear accident is made to resemble the actual source term from the Fukushima Daiichi accident including the radionuclides Cs-134, Cs-136, Cs-137, I-131, I-132, I-133 and Te-132.
