  2. 16. Full Cycle Engine Simulations with Detailed Chemistry

    Author : Adina Gogan; Värmeöverföring; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; plasmas; Gaser; Gases; fluid dynamics; aktuariematematik; programmering; operationsanalys; Statistik; actuarial mathematics; programming; operations research; Statistics; detailed kinetics; emissions; engine knock; autoignition; modeling; spark ignition engine; diesel engine; fluiddynamik; plasma; Technological sciences; Teknik; Thermal engineering; applied thermodynamics; Termisk teknik; termodynamik; Motors and propulsion systems; Motorer; framdrivningssystem; stochastic reactor model;

    Abstract : The modeling work developed in this thesis can be divided in two main areas of investigations: autoignition related to spark ignition engine and combustion and emissions formation in relation to diesel engines. A first version of a detailed kinetics engine simulation program, extended to handle full cycle calculations, was employed in order to demonstrate the strong effect that nitric oxide from the residual gas has on the autoignition onset.

  4. 17. Deglacial impact of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet on the North Atlantic climate system

    Author : Francesco Muschitiello; Barbara Wohlfarth; Raimund Muscheler; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; climate; North Atlantic; last deglaciation; isotope geochemistry; chronology; climate modeling; Marine Geology; maringeologi;

    Abstract : The long warming transition from the Last Ice Age into the present Interglacial period, the last deglaciation, holds the key to our understanding of future abrupt climate change. In the last decades, a great effort has been put into deciphering the linkage between freshwater fluxes from melting ice sheets and rapid shifts in global ocean-atmospheric circulation that characterized this puzzling climate period.

  5. 18. Tracing and apportioning sources of dioxins using multivariate pattern recognition techniques

    Author : Anteneh Assefa; Mats Professor; Karin Professor; Paul Professor; Patrik Andersson; Shigeki Masunaga; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin; polychlorinated dibenzofuran; positive matrix fac- torization; PMF; principal component analysis; PCA; Baltic Sea; sediment core; PCDD F; sources; marine; fish; environmental half-live; peak year; peak level; temporal trend; spatial variation; coastal; offshore; chemical fingerprint; Environmental Science; miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : High levels of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) in edible fish in the Baltic Sea have raised health concerns in the Baltic region and the rest of Europe. Thus, there are urgent needs to characterize sources in order to formulate effective mitigation strategies. READ MORE

  6. 19. Influence of resuspension on sediment-water solute exchange and particle transport in marine environments

    Author : Elin Almroth Rosell; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; resuspension; benthic fluxes; oxygen; dissolved inorganic carbon; nutrients; dissolved iron and manganese; in situ chambers; benthic lander; organic matter transport; ecological modeling; Gothenburg Archipelago; Gulf of Finland; Baltic Sea; Loch Creran; Scotland;

    Abstract : Marine sediments contain a large pool of nutrients, which if released would contribute to increased eutrophication, in spite of decreased nutrient loads from land and atmosphere. Resuspension is a process, which might influence the release of nutrients from the sediment to the overlying water. READ MORE

  7. 20. Ecological niche dynamic, lessons from plankton

    Author : Baptiste Serandour; Monika Winder; Thorsten Blenckner; Eric Goberville; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plankton; Metabarcoding; Spatial distribution modeling; Ecological niche; Climate Change; marinbiologi; Marine Biology;

    Abstract : Abiotic conditions shape biological communities around the globe. Through spatial and temporal heterogeneity, environments impact plankton physiology, phenology and distribution. READ MORE
