Abstract:
Large areas of northern peatlands have been drained and afforested in the second half of the 20th century with significant impacts on important ecosystem services, including loss of biodiversity and potential changes in C storage. A considerable effort is currently invested into restoring original peatland function and ecosystem services, with an increasing area of newly restored peatland areas over recent years. However, the effect of restoration on the greenhouse gas (GHG) budget is unknown. This study is the first quantification of CO2, CH4 and N2O fluxes from forest-to-bog restoration site

Abstract:
Global climate change is becoming a central issue in contemporary science as well as politics. There is a long-lasting debate about the cause of the climate change: anthropogenic activity versus the natural cycle. However, a scientific consensus is coming a conclusion that the contemporary climate change is mainly caused by anthropogenic emissions of the greenhouse gases (GHG), including carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4). The main objective of the thesis is the monitoring of such GHG emissions from two ecosystem types: a forest and a rice paddy ecosystem. The fores

We tested two interlinked hypotheses concerning forest responses to hydraulic stress using data collected at a through-fall exclusion (artificial droughting) experiment at Caxiuana in Eastern Amazonia. First, we tested the ‘isohydric’ hypothesis, that stomatal conductance, in water stressed conditions, operates to maintain leaf water potential above a certain critical threshold limit. We used the soil-plant-atmosphere (SPA) model to predict the expected ecophysiological behaviour of the trees, and tested these predictions against intensive diurnal cycle measurements of leaf water potential, st

Tropical forested peatlands are a major carbon store and are a significant source of global carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions.

The land-atmospheric exchanges of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) are major drivers of global warming and climatic changes. The greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes indicate the dynamics and potential storage of carbon in terrestrial and wetland ecosystems.

This is gradually compensated by carbon accumulation in tree biomass as the forest grows until clearfelling at maturity may initiate another substantial carbon loss. This study had two main aims.

Using the Economic Tendency Survey we investigate forecasting quarterly GDP growth using the data mining technique Random Forest. Comparisons are made with a benchmark AR(1) and an ad hoc linear model built on the most important variables suggested by the Random Forest. Evaluation by forecasting shows that the Random Forest makes the most accurate forecast supporting the theory that there are benefits to using Random Forests on economic time series.

Abstract:
Hydrogen molybdenum oxide, known has molybdenum bronze, is a material of interest due to catalyzing electron transfer reactions. Specifically, molybdenum bronze is an electrocatalyst toward carbon dioxide reduction. Electrochemical deposition from a peroxymolybdic acid solution is a method for preparing molybdenum bronze films. This work demonstrates reproducible electrodeposition on indium tin oxide substrates and conductive carbon paper. Film thickness depends on concentration, time and pH. After characterization by film thickness, resistance, XRD and XPS, the as deposited films served as th

Abstract:
O papel da Floresta Amazônica na ciclagem do carbono tem sido`freqüentemente relatado, no entanto, pouco se sabe sobre os aspectos que regula nos processos de assimilação e liberação de carbono da biosfera para a atmosfera. O objetivo deste trabalho foi descrever as respostas dos processos de respiração e fotossíntese com a variação da temperatura foliar, utilizando características biofísicas e dados micro-meteorológicos, para predizer a taxa assimilatória de CO2 de um indivíduo ou da comunidade em estudo. A pesquisa foi conduzida na Estação Experimental de Silvicultura Tropical (núcleo ZF-

Abstract:
This thesis is carried out in collaboration with a private company, DANSiC AB This study is an extension of a research work started by DANSiC AB in 2019 to classify a source. This study is about classifying a source into two classes with the sensitivity of one source higher than the other as one source has greater importance. The data provided for this thesis is based on sensor measurements on different temperature cycles. The data is high-dimensional and is expected to have a drift in measurements. Principal component analysis (PCA) is used for dimensionality reduction. “Differential”, “Relat
