  1. 1. 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

  2. 2. Reconstructing Past Climate by Using XRF and Loss of Ignition on Loess from Adventdalen, Svalbard : Rekonstruktion av tidigare klimat genom attanvända XRF analys och antändningsförlust på lössavlagringar från Adventdalen, Svalbard

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Albin Andreasson; Noa Lind; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Svalbard; loess soil; XRF; weathering; climate change;

    Sammanfattning : By analyzing the texture, composition and chemical composition of loess soils, the reconstruction ofpast climate regimes is enabled, which can improve our understanding of current and future climatechange. Properties such as grain size and composition, mineralogy, organic matter and chemicalcomposition can provide information about which environmental factors were present during thedeposition of the sediment, which can lead to a detailed picture of the climate history of a site.

  3. 3. Reconstructing Mid-Late Holocene Arctic Climate Using Loess Deposits From Kangerlussuaq, Greenland

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :William Mörtsjö Zung; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The current geological epoch, the Holocene, began 11,700 years ago. During this time, a thermal maximum in temperature was reached somewhere during the early-middle stage at 8-5 kyrs ago which was followed by a period of neoglacial cooling, culminating in the little ice age (LIA).

  4. 4. The geochemical status of the surface water and the sediments in the estuary of the Sangis River, Kalix, Sweden

    Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Författare :Anton Sandberg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Framboidal pyrite; dredging; Sangis River; estuary; redox ladder; sediment; sediment cores; SEM-EDS;

    Sammanfattning : It has been common in forestry and agriculture to drain waterlogged areas through ditching in order to cultivate them. The ditches that drain water are usually connected to some watercourse, such as a river. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Experimental and computational analysis of the thermal degradation and the loss of strength of engineered wood-based panels

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Författare :Wickramasooriyage Devmini Kularatne; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Oriented strand board; thermal decomposition; mechanical degradation; heat transfer modelling; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The current trends in the construction industry push toward materials that are more sustainable and environmentally friendlier than more traditional building materials such as concrete and steel. Timber and timber composites are one of the most popular materials on this list, due to both their mechanical strength and pleasant aesthetics. LÄS MER
