  1. 1. CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION GRIDS OF GOTLAND AND KLINTEHAMN

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Sean Brinkhurst; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Sustainable Energy Transition; Electrical Grid; Climate Change; Spatial Analysis; RCP Scenarios.;

    Sammanfattning : Climate change represents a critical threat to electrical infrastructure. With reliance on electricity expected to increase in Sweden due to the transition from fossil fuel based energy to greener energy sources, it is important that the reliability of the electrical grid be upheld.

  3. 2. West, East or South, which Railway in Hudiksvall is Preferable? : A Predictive Study of Future Climate Scenarios from an Accessibility Perspective

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för geografi

    Författare :Sofia Moberg; [2021]
    Nyckelord :accessibility; active transportation; RCP-scenarios; public transit; GTFS; tillgänglighet; aktiv transport; RCP-scenarier; kollektivtrafik; GTFS;

    Sammanfattning : An expansion of the railway, East Coast Line is essential in order to ensure transportation of passenger and goods back and forth to Northern Sweden. The preliminary studies of the planned expansion to a double track have identified vulnerabilities linked to how our climate changes. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Mapping Future Canadian Arctic Coastlines

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Pia Blake; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Isostatic Rebound; Canadian Arctic; Climate Change; RCP scenarios; Coastlines; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The Canadian Arctic currently faces changing coastlines due isostatic rebound and climate change-driven sea-levels rising. This thesis seeks to answer how local coastlines will change over time under different Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) scenarios, where errors in modelled coastlines come from, and how much of an impact isostatic rebound has on sea-levels compared to climate-change driven changes.

  5. 4. Climate change impacts on water resources of the Ganges : Suitable adaptation options for agriculture in the Indian-Himalayan region

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Industriell ekologi

    Författare :Hedvig Winther; [2017]
    Nyckelord :Climate change; water flows; Indian-Himalayan region; Ganges; adaptation; hydro-climatic modelling; stakeholder participatory methods; Klimatförändringar; vattenflöden; Indiska Himalaya; Ganges; anpassning; hydroklimatisk modellering; intressentdeltagande metoder;

    Sammanfattning : Climate change is affecting several environmental factors and together with socio-economic changes put high pressure on water resources. Climate change manifest itself through increasing temperatures and changes in precipitation patterns and intensities, with knock-on effects on hydrologically-relevant parameters such as water flows, evapotranspiration rates, glacial melt etcetera, all of which have already been observed in the recent past and are predicted to continue in the future.

  7. 5. Klimatförändringars påverkan på tromber i USA

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Författare :Anna Karlsson; [2016]
    Nyckelord :Tornadoes; atmospheric parameters; RCP-scenarios; Tromber; atmosfärsparametrar; RCP-scenarier;

    Sammanfattning : A tornado is a violent rotating column of air hanging from the cloud base of a thunderstorm. They occur most frequently in the United States, about 1000 tornadoes every year, but they can also take place in other parts of the world. For a tornado to arise the atmosphere has to be in a specific state. LÄS MER
