  1. 6. Data driven fuzzy suitability modelling as a method for assessing habitat choice of migratory Red Kites (Milvus, milvus) across Spain

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

    Författare :John-William Monks; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Physical Geography and Ecosystems analysis; Fuzzy suitability; GIS; Red Kite; Suitability modelling; Conservation; Habitat choice; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : As an increasing number of species drift onto the IUCN’s list of endangered species, it has become increasingly important to understand the fundamental aspects that are essential in maintaining the fitness of these threatened species. Using tracking data from 75% of a sample of Swiss juvenile Red Kites during their wintering period in Spain, various bioclimatic predictors (BCMPs) were taken into account to create fuzzy membership functions based on the spatial distribution of the related biogeographic elements within the operating range of the sample set of kites.

  2. 7. Probabilistic ecological risk assessment of secondary poisoning from DDT

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning

    Författare :Alice Rundegren; [2019]
    Nyckelord :probabilistisk riskbedömning; toppredatorer; DDT; diklordifenyltrikloretan; plantskola; skogsplantskola; artkänslighetsfördelning; bioackumulering; förorenad mark; indirekt exponering; Monte Carlo simulering; probabilistic risk assessment; plant nursery; species sensitivity distribution; polluted soil; indirect exposure; bioaccumulation; Monte Carlo simulation; dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Although prohibited since decades, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and its metabolites still remain in the soil and pose a threat to ecosystems, where especially birds are susceptible to toxic effects. In this thesis, a model developed in the 1990s was used and updated in order to estimate the risks of DDT to top predators at a forest-plant nursery site. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Chassis Design of a Control Pod for a Kite Power System

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Marina system

    Författare :Erik Soukka; [2018]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This is the report of a master thesis in light weight design of a component in a system that harnesses wind power with a kite. The thesis is a degree project in Naval Architecture at KTH with the course code SD271X. The design work is mostly of a structural nature, but systems engineering, and conceptual design is also a major part of thestudy. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Kite, kiite, kitte. Svenskspråkiga studenters inlärning av kvantitetskontrast i japanska

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för språk och litteraturer

    Författare :Markus Nurmimäki; [2017-01-26]
    Nyckelord :japanska; andraspråksinlärning; kvantitet; längdkontrast; vokallängd; konsonantlängd; utbytesstudier; svenska;

    Sammanfattning : Japanskan är ett språk där skillnaden mellan långa och korta fonem är mycket viktig, eftersom det finns många ord där detta utgör en betydelseskillnad. Denna uppsats försöker undersöka hur pass lätt eller svårt det är för svensktalare att lära sig göra skillnad mellan korta och långa språkljud i sin produktion av japanska, dvs. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Tidal Power

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Författare :Fritiof Lembke; Tarek Penser; [2017]
    Nyckelord :Minesto; modellering; tidvattenkraft;

    Sammanfattning : Tidal power is a relatively new area within renewable energy with great potential in some areas of the world. One of the companies working with this is Minesto, and they have developed a technology called Deep Green that uses a kite that is attached to the seabed to generate electricity. LÄS MER
