  1. 1. TRADITIONAL ECOLOGICAL KNOWLEDGE IN AGRICULTURE FOR ADAPTATION/ RESILIENCE TO CLIMATE CHANGE: HIGH MOUNTAIN ASIA

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Dulani Lavanya Samarasekara Witharana; [2023-06-22]
    Nyckelord :climate change adaptation; resilient agroecosystems; Hindu Kush Himalaya; indigenous knowledge; traditional farming; traditional ecological knowledge;

    Sammanfattning : Mountain agricultural systems in the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) are in a unique position to contribute to promoting nature-based solutions in adaptation and resilience to climate change since they are least impacted by the influence of commercial high-production agriculture. This study aims to explore currently available literature for evidence of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) based agriculture in the HKH region and analyse their contribution to region and location specific climate change adaptation.

  2. 2. Grassroots Initiatives for Urban Sustainability Transition: A Case Study of Urban Farming Projects in Informal Settlements in Nairobi, Kenya

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Margarita Oja Da Silva; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Global South; Grassroots Initiatives; Informal Settlements; Sustainability Transition; Sustainable Development; Urban Farming;

    Sammanfattning : Cities in the Global South are undergoing rapid urbanization, where a high percentage of the urban poor live in informal settlements that lack basic services, are associated with unemployment, low-income levels, and insecurity. The impacts of climate change, intensive agricultural practices, and highly globalized food systems pose challenges to food security. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Autonomous Control in Advanced Life Support Systems : Air Revitalisation within the Micro-Ecological Life Support System Alternative

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Författare :Lukas Demey; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Advanced Life Support Systems; Cyber-Physical Systems; Control Architecture; Distributed Software Architecture; Space Exploration; Avancerade livsuppehållande system; cyberfysiska system; kontrollarkitektur; distribuerad mjukvaruarkitektur; rymdutforskning;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years international space agencies have become more and more explicit about long term lunar and Martian space missions. With the space program Terrae Novae, the European Space Agency puts forward a focus on the development of Human & Robotic Exploration technologies essential in enabling such long term missions.

  4. 4. Flexible Sector Coupling (FSC) of Electrical and Thermal Sectors via Thermal Energy Storage (TES) : A Case Study on Oskarshamn Energi

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Författare :Raúl Calvo García; Jose María Marín Arcos; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Flexible sector coupling FSC ; district heating DH ; thermal energy storage TES ; heat pump HP ; capacity optimization; dispatch optimization; open-access tools; Flexibel sektorkoppling; fjärrvärme; termisk energilagring; värmepump; kapacitetsoptimering; leveransoptimering; verktyg med öppen tillgång;

    Sammanfattning : The integration of distributed energy sources and systems is of high relevance for the transition towards a more sustainable energy system. Taking into consideration the  amount of emissions produced by the heating sector, which account for at least half of the energy demand in buildings, district heating systems have the potential to play a key role in the transition, by enabling the integration of various energy sources and provide flexible energy services to the grid.

  5. 5. Evaluation of Cyber-Attacks in Networked Control Systems

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Författare :Teja Kedar Vadde Hulgesh; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Networked Control Systems (NCS) form an essential role in numerous critical infrastructures, including water distribution plants, water treatment plants, electric power grids, and power transmission networks. NCS employ a communication network to share data between the plant and the controller.
