  1. 6. Melting Security – Indigenous Livelihood in the Canadian Arctic

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Graduate School

    Författare :Lisa Pohl; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Paris Agreement; Climate Change; Inuit; Nunavut; Societal Security; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The COP21 Paris Agreement is considered a milestone on the way to limiting global warming to 1.5°C. For the first time in history, a climate convention is signed by all 198 members of the UNFCCC, with each signatory state being responsible for developing their own climate strategy that considers the national circumstances.

  3. 7. Remote Sensing of Cryospheric Surfaces : Small Scale Surface Roughness Signatures in Satellite Altimetry Data

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Författare :Petter Ideström; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Remote sensing; Altimetry; Arctic; Cryosphere; ICESat-2; Cryosat-2; Svalbard;

    Sammanfattning : The Arctic cryosphere is experiencing a higher rate of warming compared to the rest of the world due to Arctic amplification. As glacier elevation change provide reliable evidence of climate change it is routinely measured by satellite altimeters. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Applying LPJ-GUESS on the Arctic: A model evaluation and benchmarking study

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

    Författare :Margot Jeanne Knapen; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Physical Geography and Ecosystem Analysis; LPJ-GUESS; Arctic; FLUXNET; Gross Primary Productivity; Ecosystem Respiration; Permafrost; Active Layer Thickness; Snow Depth; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Warming in the Arctic occurs at a much higher rate than the global average, which has a considerable impact on the Arctic terrestrial carbon cycle. Permafrost thawing can release substantial amounts of carbon, whilst tundra shrubification and tree-line advance, on the other hand, may compensate for this. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Legacy effects of temperature alterations on microbial resistance and resilience to drying and rewetting

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

    Författare :Franklin Lee Harris; [2023]
    Nyckelord :microbial ecology; soil; carbon dynamics; high latitudes; climate change; moisture stress; isotopes; respiration; trait based ecology; soil microbes; Environmental Changes in High Latitudes EnCHIL ; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : With warming in soils due to climate change, a series of secondary factors arise, which have multifaceted effects on soil microbial communities. Of these, alterations to soil moisture are among the most crucial to understanding how microbial functions will change in the face of climate change. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Arctic Tourism Fantasies : Tour Operators' perceptions of a winter landscape

    Master-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för marknadsföring och turismvetenskap (MTS)

    Författare :Szabolcs Harhai; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Arctic; Arctic tourism; climate change; landscape; landscape perceptions; adaptation; Rovaniemi; Finnish Lapland;

    Sammanfattning : The effects of global warming are evident throughout the Arctic, which is warming much more quickly than the rest of the planet and is increasingly being referred to as a fragile environment. The tourism industry in the area, which is built around notions of enchanted wintertime fantasy landscapes, is directly impacted by the effects of climate change. LÄS MER
