The structural properties of nanoparticles have attracted significant interest due to their potentialapplications in various fields such as catalysis, drug delivery, and optics [1]. Their nanoscaledimensions and large surface area to volume ratio provide unique characteristics, includinghigher reactivity, selectivity, and mechanical strength compared to bulk materials. [...]

With the amount of data generated in climate science from scientific models reachingmultiple terabytes per simulation, it becomes difficult to provide sufficient storagespace and achieve satisfactory data transfer rates. In order to be able to store moreinformation, data compression becomes increasingly relevant, as it allows the size ofthe data to be decreased significantly.In this work a novel approach to lossy data compression for climate data by usingthe deep learning model AtmoRep is being analysed. [...]

This thesis investigates the proximity of different languages and different language families by analysing how multilingual text data are represented in a shared latent space, focusing on the Colossal Clean Crawled Corpus (C4) with a multilingual extension (mC4). The main focus is to determine whether embeddings of different languages group together based on their linguistic families, topical content, or both. [...]

Forests play a pivotal role in the global carbon cycle, acting as significant carbon sinks and influencing climate change mitigation strategies. This thesis investigates the relationships between tree growth and carbon fluxes within the ecological forest regeneration site of Eifel National Park over the period from 2016 to 2024. [...]
