  1. 1. Sampling uncertainties in ensemble weather forecasting

    Author : Linus Magnusson; Erland Källén; Jonas Nycander; Jan Barkmeijer; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ensemble forecasting; Initial perturbation techniques; Meteorology; Meteorologi; meteorologi; Meteorology;

    Abstract : The aim of ensemble weather forecasting is to provide probability forecasts for the occurrence of meteorological events. The ensembles are constructed by assembling several forecast realisations, each member of the ensemble being constructed to sample the uncertainties in the forecast. READ MORE

  3. 3. On Incentives affecting Risk and Asset Management of Power Distribution

    Author : Carl Johan Wallnerström; Rajeev Thottappillil; Patrik Hilber; Ulf Sandberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; asset management; correlation studies; incentives; investment planning; maintenance planning; power distribution; reliability analysis; risk management; statistical validation; tariff regulation; vulnerability analysis; weather states; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Industrial engineering and economy; Industriell teknik och ekonomi;

    Abstract : The introduction of performance based tariff regulations along with higher media and political pressure have increased the need for well-performed risk and asset management applied to electric power distribution systems (DS), which is an infrastructure considered as a natural monopoly. Compared to other technical systems, DS have special characteristics which are important to consider. READ MORE

  4. 4. Hydrodynamics of very shallow lakes - A study in Lake Krankesjön, Sweden

    Author : Charlotta Borell Lövstedt; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; alternative stable states; field measurements; reed; resuspension; wave damping; waves; differential heating; vegetation; convective currents;

    Abstract : Shallow lakes have great ecological and recreational values. They are also largely affected by humans, mainly through eutrophication, and great efforts are therefore being put into the understanding of these ecosystems. The knowledge is however not complete, and more research is needed to manage these lakes in a sustainable way. READ MORE

  5. 5. Wintertime compound extremes in Europe and North America : from dynamics to predictability

    Author : Richard Leeding; Gabriele Messori; Jacopo Riboldi; Deliang Chen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cold Spells; Climate Extremes; Extratropical Cyclones; North Atlantic; North America; Europe; Meteorologi; Meteorology;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the co-occurrence of wintertime low temperature extremes (cold spells) over North America and wet or windy extremes over Europe. Prolonged (≅ 5 days) North American cold spells can be associated with both upstream and downstream anomalous large-scale atmospheric flows, the latter modulating extreme weather occurrences over Europe.
