  1. 1. If Trees Could Talk - Dendrochemistry, a Promising Method for Understanding Pollution History

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Jonatan Uusitalo; [2023-08-17]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Heavy metal pollution presents a significant environmental challenge in the Anthropocene era, and understanding pollution history is crucial to address historical pollution and implementing effective mitigation measures. This study stands among a few comprehensive dendrochemical investigations that utilized an extensive dataset and energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) technique to reconstruct the contamination history of As, Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn, with a focus on Cu.

  3. 2. BYGGER VI FÖR FRAMTIDEN?

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

    Författare :Svjetlana Jadrijevic; [2023-06-21]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Gothenburg is growing and being built, now like never before. These new constructions determine environmental performance for quite long time. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Framtagning av testrigg för att testa regnerosion på vindturbinblad

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

    Författare :Nils Arvidsson Lindbäck; David Johansson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :leading edge erosion; test rig; wind turbine blades; wind power; kanterosion; testrigg; turbinblad; vindkraftverk;

    Sammanfattning : Bakgrunden till projektet är problem med kanterosion av turbinblad inom vindkraftverks- industrin. Det är ett fenomen som uppstår när turbinblad roterar i höga hastigheter och träffar partiklar, främst vattendroppar i regn. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Loess as an Environmental Proxy for Reconstruction of Palaeoclimate in the High Arctic

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Sara Rognås; [2023]
    Nyckelord :aeolian transport; loess; grain size analysis; loss on ignition; palaeoclimate; Svalbard; Holocene; vindtransporterat material; lössjord; kornstorlek; loss on ignition; paleoklimat; Svalbard; Holocen;

    Sammanfattning : We are currently speeding towards significant changes in the climate of the earth which, if ignored, will lead to severely altered climatic conditions with serious consequences for several species and ecosystems. The polar regions especially are very sensitive to climate changes, and the changes these regions undergo affect the climate on a global scale. LÄS MER

  7. 5. A Statistical Approach to Understand the Evolution of Exotic Butterfly Species

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Författare :Elin Eliasson; Rebecka Haraldsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Phylogenetics; Tree reconstruction; COI barcoding; General Time Reversible Model; K80 Model; Evolution; Butterflies; Fylogenetik; Rekonstruktion av träd; COI barcoding; General Time Reversible modell; K80 modell; Evolution; Fjärilar;

    Sammanfattning : The alarming rate at which we see the decline in biodiversity due to human activity has raised concerns about the well-being of our planet. Butterflies which serve as pollinators are an essential part of many ecosystems and sensitive indicators of environmental changes and can provide valuable insight into how ecosystems function and evolve.
