  1. 1. Modelling soil temperature and carbon storage changes for Swedish boreal forests

    Författare :Magnus Svensson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :SPAC; soil surface energy balance; Norway spruce; canopy; LAI; climate; nitrogen; CoupModel;

    Sammanfattning : With the use of a process-orientated ecosystem model andmeasurements conducted at different Swedish coniferous forestsites, abiotic and biotic interactions between tree and soilwere identified and related to governing factors. Two differentmodelling approaches to describe soil temperatures at two sitesincluding hydrological transects were tested (I). LÄS MER

  2. 2. TQM-based self-assessment in educational organisations

    Författare :Magnus Svensson; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kvalitetsteknik; Quality Technology and Management;

    Sammanfattning : The interest in Total Quality Management, TQM, has increased rapidly in both the private sector and in the public sector in many countries. In this thesis TQM refers to a management system consisting of core values, methodologies and tools, which support each other in order increase customer satisfaction with less use of resources.

  3. 3. TQM-based self-assessment in educational organizations : help or hindrance?

    Författare :Magnus Svensson; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kvalitetsteknik; Quality Technology and Management;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis comprises research of TQM-based self-assessment at organizational level within Swedish educational organizations. Here TQM (Total Quality Management) refers to a management system consisting of core values, methodologies and tools that support each other. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Carbon dynamics in spruce forest ecosystems - modelling pools and trends for Swedish conditions

    Författare :Magnus Svensson; Per-Erik Jansson; Dan Berggren Kleja; Keith Paustian; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :boreal; climate; CoupModel; net ecosystem production; nitrogen; process-based model; soil carbon; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : Carbon (C) pools and fluxes in northern hemisphere forest ecosystems are attracting increasing attention concerning predicted climate change. This thesis studied C fluxes, particularly soil C dynamics, in spruce forest ecosystems in relation to interactions between physical/biological processes using a process-based ecosystem model (CoupModel) with data for Swedish conditions.

  5. 5. Chiral Liquid Crystalline Side-Chain Polymers. Design, Synthesis and Properties

    Författare :Magnus Svensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lateral substituent; electro-optic; ferroelectric; molar mass; polymer; side-group; thin film; polysiloxane;

    Sammanfattning : The potential use of chiral liquid crystalline materials, low molar mass as well as polymers, in technical applications has been recognized for some decades now. A number of interesting phenomena based on the spontaneous ordering of the liquid crystal forming molecules are strong reasons for the research effort in this area. LÄS MER
