21. Environmental occurrence and fate of semifluorinated n-alkanes and perfluorinated alkyl acids present in ski waxes
Sammanfattning : Highly fluorinated organic compounds are emerging environmental contaminants of concern, due to their persistence, ubiquitous distribution, bioaccumulation potential and toxicity. Ski waxes are sources of highly fluorinated chemicals to the environment that have not been investigated so far. LÄS MER
22. Snow quality in urban areas
Sammanfattning : The studies reported on this thesis aim to provide information and increase knowledge about the quality of urban snow and the path of pollutants. The results develop a basis for decisions regarding the prevention of environmental damage. LÄS MER
23. Snow contamination of cars: Collisions of ice particles with surfaces
Sammanfattning : Seasonal snow cover on roads causes car accidents that lead to human suffering and economic loss. Snow cover decreases visibility and road-tire friction. Advanced active safety systems have been developed to cope with sudden changes in driving conditions and have been engineered to act as quickly as possible. LÄS MER
24. Quantifying the impact of winter warming on the Arctic carbon cycle
Sammanfattning : The Arctic has undergone extreme changes during the last decades and is warming over twice the global average. There has been increasing interest in understanding how warming and changes in snow and rainfall will affect high-latitude ecosystems. LÄS MER
25. On LFSR based Stream Ciphers - analysis and design
Sammanfattning : Stream ciphers are cryptographic primitives used to ensure privacy in digital communication. In this thesis we focus on stream ciphers built using Linear Feedback Shift Registers (LFSRs). Several different stream ciphers are analysed and new attacks are presented. In addition, two new stream ciphers are presented, both based on the same design. LÄS MER
