Within LU Fluxes we are investigating how the biosphere - atmosphere exchange of greenhouse gases (GHG) and energy in ecosystems is affected by natural forcing mechanisms, management practices and natural disturbances (drought, storms etc.). We are studying exchange processes of GHGs and energy with a variety of methods, but eddy covariance and chambers are most commonly used. LU Fluxes How does f

NGEA17 This course is cancelled in spring 2023. Course contents In this course, you will learn the dynamics of the most important weather systems. You will learn to describe and to analyse weather systems of different scales, from hundreds of kilometers (mesoscale) to the moving high- and low-pressure systems at a scale of several thousands of kilometres (synoptic scale). At the end of the course,

The science of climate and climate change involves study of the interaction between clouds, atmospheric radiation and aerosol particles. Researchers at the department are investigating how the environment controls cloud glaciation, precipitation, lightning and other cloud properties. Improved ways of treating clouds in global climate models that predict climate change are being developed.Ice Initi
