    Författare :Franziska Bandau; Benedicte Albrectsen; Michael Gundale; Lisbeth Josson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; aspen; foliar condensed tannins; genetic variability; anthropogenic nitrogen enrichment; plant growth; plant defense; litter decomposition; Populus tremula; asp; kondenserade tanniner; genetisk variabilitet; antropogent kväve; tillväxt; växtförsvar; förna nedbrytning; Populus tremula; Environmental Science; miljövetenskap; ekologisk botanik; Ecological Botany; Entomology; entomologi; Physiological Botany; fysiologisk botanik; Population Biology; populationsbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Boreal forests are often strongly nitrogen (N) limited. However, human activities are leading to increased N inputs into these ecosystems, through atmospheric N deposition and forest fertilization. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Climate Simulation of an Attic Using Future Weather Data Sets - Statistical Methods for Data Processing and Analysis

    Författare :Vahid Nik; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; climate change; attic; HAM simulation; climate uncertainty; variability decomposition;

    Sammanfattning : The effects of possible climate changes on a cold attic performance are considered in this work. The hygro-thermal responses of the attic to different climate data sets are simulated using a numerical model, which has been made using the International Building Physics Toolbox (IBPT). LÄS MER

  3. 3. Electricity markets operation planning with risk-averse agents: stochastic decomposition and equilibium

    Författare :Nenad Jovanovic; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; decomposition techniques; market equilibrium; risk-averse agents; stochastic optimization;

    Sammanfattning : The growing penetration of renewable energy sources in electricity systems requires adapting operation models to face the inherent variability and uncertainty of wind or solar generation. In addition, the volatility of fuel prices (such as natural gas) or the uncertainty of the hydraulic natural inflows requires to take into account all these sources of uncertainty within the operation planning of the generation system.

  4. 4. Impacts and drivers of insect herbivory on element cycling in forests globally

    Författare :Bernice Hwang; MERGE: ModElling the Regional and Global Earth system; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biogeochemical cycling; folivory; insect cadavers; insect frass; insect herbivory; litter decomposition; nutrient cycling; carbon; nitrogen; phosphorus; silicon; silica;

    Sammanfattning : The effects of insect herbivores on forest functioning are not well understood even though they can have important impacts on ecosystem processes by intercepting foliage before resorption and depositing nutrient-rich materials to the soil. In this thesis, I investigated the impact and drivers of insect folivores on carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and silica (Si) cycling in broadleaf forests, and how this varies with major climate variables.

  5. 5. On the Dynamics and Statics of Power System Operation : Optimal Utilization of FACTS Devicesand Management of Wind Power Uncertainty

    Författare :Amin Nasri; Mehrdad Ghandhari; Zhang Xiao-Ping; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Trajectory sensitivity analysis TSA ; transient stability; small signal stability; flexible AC transmission system FACTS devices; critical clearing time CCT ; optimal power flow OPF ; network-constrained ac unit commitment ac-UC ; wind power uncertainty; wind power spillage; stochastic programming; Benders’ decomposition; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Nowadays, power systems are dealing with some new challenges raisedby the major changes that have been taken place since 80’s, e.g., deregu-lation in electricity markets, significant increase of electricity demands andmore recently large-scale integration of renewable energy resources such aswind power.
