  1. 11. Building a coherent hydro-climatic modelling framework for the data limited Kilombero Valley of Tanzania

    Författare :Alexander Koutsouris; Steve W. Lyon; Jan Seibert; Mekonnen Gebremichael; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydrology; Precipitation; Recession analysis; End - member mixing analysis; EMMA; GLUE; HBV; down scaling; Quantile mapping; CFSR; CMORPH; CRU; GPCC; ERA - i; MERRA; TRMM; UDEL; Satellite; Reanalysis; Kilombero; Tanzania; Eastern Africa; Africa; Physical Geography; naturgeografi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores key aspects for synthesizing data across spatiotemporal scales relevant for water resources management in an Eastern Africa context. Specifically, the potential of large scale global precipitation datasets (GPDs) in data limited regions to overcome spatial and temporal data gaps is considered. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Moisture Buffering in the Indoor Environment

    Författare :Kaisa Svennberg; Avdelningen för Byggnadsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Teknik; furniture; textiles; moisture buffering; beds; indoor air; indoor environment; sorption isotherms; field measurements; definition scheme; Technological sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Moisture buffering in the indoor environment is the ability, through absorption and desorption, of surface materials to attenuate the moisture variations of the indoor air. Moisture buffering plays an important role in understanding the risks for biological growth in surface materials in the indoor environment, e.g. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Moisture Induced Stress Perpendicular to Grain in Timber Structures

    Författare :Martin Häglund; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wood.; timber; perpendicular to grain; load combination factor; tensile stress; mechano-sorption; Moisture induced eigen-stress; varying moisture content;

    Sammanfattning : Timber structures and wooden element are in general affected by moisture and moisture variation in different ways. Their hygroscopic properties result in adsorption of water when wetted and in desorption when dried. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Nitrogen Removal in Created Wetlands : Considerations – Challenges – Possibilities

    Författare :Josefin E. Nilsson; Antonia Liess; Stefan Weisner; Eva Lindström; Jennifer Tank; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecosystem services; eutrophication; constructed wetlands; agricultural runoff; denitrification; wetland multifunctionality; climate change; nutrient retention; vegetation; hydrology; greenhouse gas emissions; biodiversity; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Sammanfattning : Created wetlands in agricultural landscapes deliver a multitude of ecosystem services, one of which is the removal of nitrogen (N) from water to reduce eutrophication. Wetland N removal, primarily through denitrification, is influenced by various factors. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Energy Efficiency in Residential Buildings in Mozambique - Measurements and Simulations

    Författare :Gabriel Auziane; Byggproduktion; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy; Building; Measurements; Simulations; DEROB-LTH; Mozambique; Subtropical and Tropical climates; Energy efficiency; PV system; Electrical energy savings.;

    Sammanfattning : Mozambique, situated in south-east Africa, has sub-tropical and tropical climate and plenty of natural resources for energy production. The country is however poor, and only about 25% of the population has access to electricity from the grid. LÄS MER
