The source contributions to carbonaceous PM2.5 aerosol were investigated at a European background site at the edge of the Po Valley, in Northern Italy, during the period January-December 2007. Carbonaceous aerosol was described as the sum of 8 source components: primary (1) and secondary (2) biomass burning organic carbon, biomass burning elemental carbon (3), primary (4) and secondary (5) fossil
Urban pluvial flooding threatens transport accessibility, yet the spatial factors such as elevation, vegetation, and road density associated with accessibility loss remain insufficiently understood. This study assessed changes in nearest-facility travel time to hospitals, clinics, schools, supermarkets, and fire stations under a 100-year return period flood scenario in Stockholm, Sweden, for both
Drylands are water-limited systems that collectively sustain hundreds of millions of people, yet land–atmosphere feedbacks such as terrestrial moisture recycling remain poorly quantified. In particular, the origins of precipitation in China's drylands and their atmospheric water vapor budgets remain unclear. Here we use a Lagrangian moisture-tracking model to quantify atmospheric moisture sources
Urban flooding is an increasing challenge in Gothenburg, where flood risk is influenced by river discharge, elevated sea levels and hydraulic regulation. The river Mölndalsån contributes to this risk as it flows through urban areas before discharging into Göta älv. Future climate change may further increase the risk through rising sea levels and more intense precipitation. This thesis investigate
A higher production rate of green hydrogen is needed to meet climate change targets. This thesis investigates the behaviour of four photovoltaic (PV) and proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyser coupling configurations in MATLAB Simulink. Direct and indirect coupling are simulated, and systems are created with PV reconfiguration, with and without a battery, to investigate the behaviour of syste
In the early 21st century, deflationary trends applied pressure on margins in a range of different industries and subsequently cost reductions were required. Improving efficiency in the supply chain was identified as one of the key sources of potential cost savings. Subsequently, a trend towards slimmer supply chains with less stockkeeping emerged. However, due to the covid-19 pandemic supply chai

Well-preserved marine fossils in carbonate rocks permit detailed studies of the end-Permian extinction event in the marine realm. However, the rarity of fossils in terrestrial depositional environments makes it more challenging to attain a satisfactory degree of resolution to describe the biotic turnover on land. Here we present new sedimentological, paleontological and geochemical (X-ray fluoresc
Context. Transmission spectroscopy is one of the most powerful techniques used to characterize transiting exoplanets, since it allows for the abundance of the atomic and molecular species in the planetary atmosphere to be measured. However, stellar lines may bias the determination of such abundances if their center-To-limb variations (CLVs) are not properly accounted for. Aims. This paper aims to
Suddträsket är ett internationellt erkänt våtmarksområde av stor betydelse som ligger beläget längst Vita Nilen i Sydsudan. Våtmarkens unika ekologiska miljöer har lett till skapandet av flera naturskyddsområden för bevarandet av de naturliga habitaten och dess ovärderliga ekosystemtjänster. Tillsyn av skyddsområdena bidrar i allmänhet till deras bevarande. Däremot har de pågående politiska osäkerThe Sudd wetland, situated along the White Nile in the Republic of South Sudan, is recognized internationally for its unique environmental features. The distinctive ecological characteristics have resulted in the creation of numerous nature reserves in efforts to conserve the habitats and ecosystem services provided. Monitoring changes within the nature reserves usually contributes to their protec
Climate change has been identified as one of the greatest threats facing our world today. The effects of climate change are expected to increase global sea level rise and the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. This poses a significant risk to cities due to their high population density and economic, political, cultural and commercial activities. Coastal cities in low- and middle-in
Food waste is a growing global problem. Even in Sweden, being one of the most sustainable countries in the world, the food waste levels are high. Understanding the role of local governance is crucial to tackle the problem of food waste. By using a simplified A-B-C (attitude-behaviour-conditions) framework, I explore Lund municipality prior to the general elections of 2018 and its governance system
The Covid-19 virus was first discovered in China in December of 2019 and in February of 2020, the Covid-19 virus began to spread worldwide, which caused the World Health Organization (WHO) to classify the virus as a pandemic. Since then previous studies have shown an increase in interest in outdoor life, which has led to an increase in the number of visitors in popular nature areas. Furthermore, t
The Viking Age saw the colonisation of most of the isles of Scotland by settlers from Norway. These newcomers brought their own customs, practices and perceptions to the Isles, maintaining close links with the Scandinavian world. However, these islands had already experienced millennia of anthropogenic change by the time of Norse settlement, and generations of previous inhabitants had populated th
Agriculture is necessary for providing nutrition to a growing global population. However, many unsustainable agricultural practices contribute to climate change, cause local pollution and disrupt natural biological and nutrient cycles. Conservation agriculture (CA) is one of the many practices that have been proposed to meet the challenge of sustainable agricultural production. CA aims to restore
Krita-paleogen-gränsen har länge varit central i diskussioner mellan forskare runt om i världen, då den markerar/sammanfaller med utdöendet av 75% av jordens arter till följd av ett enormt asteriodnedslag på Chicxulúbhalvön i Mexiko. Gränsintervallet är vida utbrett i sedimentära lagerföljder som bildades under denna tid, och kan identifieras genom sina unika kemiska egenskaper och karakteristiskaThe Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary has long been a center of discussion amongst scientists as it marks the extinction of 75% of all species on Earth. This mass extinction event was probably caused by an enormous asteroid impact event in what is now Mexico. The boundary interval is easily identified in the sedimentary geological record because of its unique chemical properties as well as its charact
