1. The interplay between atmosphere, hydrology and land use by environmental modelling
University dissertation from Lund University (Media-Tryck)Abstract : Interactions between land surface and atmosphere induced by human activities and natural environmental dynamics act on a time scale that varies from seconds to millions of years. It is by exchanging heat, water, energy and carbon that land surface and atmospheric processes are closely interrelated and influence each other in reciprocal ways. READ MORE

2. An investigation into ocean thermodynamics and water-mass transformation
University dissertation from Stockhom : Department of Meteorology, Stockholm UniversityAbstract : This thesis presents oceanic budgets of potential temperature, salinity and buoyancy as well as a novel way of diagnosing water-mass transformation in salinity-temperature space. The buoyancy of seawater is given by a nonlinear function of temperature, salinity and pressure and much of the work in this thesis revolves around how fluxes of heat and salinity influence the buoyancy of seawater through these nonlinearities.

3. Oceanographic studies of the Baltic Sea with emphasis on sea ice and mixing processes
University dissertation from Göteborg : Chalmers University of TechnologyAbstract : This thesis comprises of model estimates of the water and heat budgets, re-estimating of the budget of deep-water mixing energy, model studies of generation mechanisms for internal waves, sea ice dynamermics and finally sea ice monitoring. Common site for all the studies are the Baltic Sea. READ MORE

4. Water and heat exchange processes over the Baltic sea
University dissertation from Uppsala : Acta Universitatis UpsaliensisAbstract : Before we can reach understanding of the global climate and predict climate changes accurately we must be able to understand water and energy budgets. The atmosphere-water exchange processes are of great importance. READ MORE

5. Freshwater processes and water mass transformation in the Arctic Ocean
University dissertation from Stockholm : Department of Meteorology, Stockholm UniversityAbstract : This thesis explores freshwater-related processes and water mass transformation in the Arctic Ocean. Knowledge of these processes is important from both a local and a global perspective. Globally, because the export of cold and low saline water and sea ice might influence the North Atlantic and global meridional overturning circulation. READ MORE
