The Department of Automatic Control at Lund University gives a project course in Systems, Control and Learning (FRTN70) twice per year. The course is given at the advanced level (7.5 ECTS credits), and the students work in small teams to achieve a common goal. The projects typically involve a real-world estimation or control problem with relevance to industrial or other applications. In this cours

Surface water fluctuations and lake storage has been severely impacted by climate change, causing severe flooding and drought events. Hence, monitoring the storage of lakes and reservoirs is of paramount importance to assess freshwater availability, to maintain a balance with the ecosystem and water use. This balance is important for sustainable water management in Sweden, which is reflected in th

Group exhibition. Participated with the work Light to the Nations .Will the sky fall on our heads one day? Meteorites have a magical attraction, but at the same time they fuel age-old fears. Whereas in the Middle Ages they were regarded as divine signs and ominous devil’s stones, today people fear a natural disaster: a meteorite impact that could wipe out our civilisation.

The potential of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) is currently explored in the world. SMRs as technology is still under development but is introduced to the public. In this stage, when much is still uncertain and unknown, media is important. The benefits and risks related to this new technology articulated in media potentially shape different actors' expectations and attitudes towards the technology.

Butterflies have been systematically monitored in Europe for several decades using standard protocols that are now adopted in over 30 countries. Butterflies are ideal biological indicators: they are well-documented, measurable, sensitive to environmental change, occur in a wide range of habitat types, represent many other insects, and are popular with the public because of their beauty.
