  1. 1. Assessment of Climate Change Impact on Rainfed Barley Production in the Mediterranean Basin : The Almeria province case study

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Francesco Saretto; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Barley; Rainfed; Climate Change; AquaCrop; AquaCrop-OSPy; Mediterranean; Climate Change Adaptation; Crop Modeling; Agriculture; Irrigation;

    Sammanfattning : The Mediterranean basin is widely recognized as a climate change hotspot, with climate models projecting increasingly warmer and drier conditions that will impact local ecosystems, communities, and economies. Agriculture will be among the most affected sectors, with harsher conditions for crops’ growth, greater water needs, and lower yields. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Influence of different carbon sources on methane fluxes in sediments of eelgrass beds and unvegetated areas: a case study on the Swedish west coast

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap; Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Hampus Holmberg; [2023-06-22]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : One of the best ways to mitigate climate change is through natural carbon sequestration. An efficient way to mitigate climate change is through carbon sequestration from coastal habitats. LÄS MER

  4. 3. ACCESS TO URBAN COOL AND GREEN SPACES FOR OLD ADULTS IN GOTHENBURG – A GIS-BASED ANALYSIS OF RADIANT HEAT

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Robert Klein; [2023-01-19]
    Nyckelord :urban climate; heat stress; mean radiant temperature; SOLWEIG; urban vegetation; urban planning;

    Sammanfattning : Old adults are particularly vulnerable against heat stress. Considering the ageing society and the projected increase of heat events, planning for heat-resilient urban environments for old adults will become increasingly important. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Economic development in a biodiversity hotspot: what is the jungle worth? : A case study of local understandings of forest use in North Sumatra

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Författare :Sydney Laewen; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Minor Field Study; Sustainable development; Economic development; Natural resource use; Biodiversity; Conservation; Discourse analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Sustainable development as our joint global goal is consensus in the mainstream international arena, in the name of long-term well-being for all living creatures. However economic constraints often limit the choices available to local communities, forcing them to make trade-offs between immediate socioeconomic gains and the long-term sustainability of natural resources.

  7. 5. Hunting Hotspots - A framework to assess the effectiveness of using environmentally extended input-output models as a method to identify CO2-eq hotspots in the upstream supply chain of a company

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/LUCSUS

    Författare :Elisa Anni Bauer; [2023]
    Nyckelord :GHG emissions; Effectiveness; Hotspot analysis; Environmentally Extended Input-Output; Sustainability Science; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Industry’s indirect upstream greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions contribute significantly to climate change. To identify and reduce them, some companies conduct a hotspot analysis using an environmentally extended input-output (EEIO) model (often utilizing EXIOBASE database). LÄS MER
