1. Land Use and Land Cover Changes in Europe and the Impact on Near-Surface Wind Speed in Sweden
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : Investigations of Land use and land cover change (LULCC) have recently become of increasing interest. This trend occurs not only based of the importance of biogeochemical processes such as carbon sequestration, but also because of their climate impacts caused by changed biogeophysical properties.

2. Bioeconomy Strategy effects in Rural Areas : A comparative study of the Alpine region and Inner Scandinavia
Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Kulturgeografiska institutionenSammanfattning : The European Commission Bioeconomy Strategy aims to stimulate an ecologically sustainable economy to mitigate climate change, declining biodiversity, and as an economic and social strategy meant to provide jobs and stimulate growth. The aim of this research project is to understand how the European Commission Bioeconomy Strategy is being interpreted and implemented in two different rural European regions, Inner Scandinavia, and the Alpine region, and based on those findings discuss how a sustainable bioeconomy strategy can be understood primarily in relation to the ecological sustainability goals of decarbonizing the economy and protecting biodiversity.

3. Spatial and Temporal Dynamics of Carbon Sequestration in Stockholm County's Green areas : A GIS-based Analysis
Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : The human influence of global climate is an issue currently assessed in various mitigation strategies. Stockholm County has committed to becoming carbon neutral by 2040 and negative by 2045 according to the Paris agreement. LÄS MER
4. From wheat to lawns : urban expansion to agricultural lands in Finland from 2000 to 2018 and its implications to food security
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : This thesis evaluates the extent of urban expansion on agricultural lands in Finland, its effects on the national agricultural output and the implications to national food security and sheds some light to the reasons of why agricultural land is converted to urban land in Finland. This complex issue was approached through mixed research methods. LÄS MER
5. Influence of land cover changes on organic carbon and organic nitrogen concentrations in Swedish rivers
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : There is increasing pressure on freshwater systems due to excessive nutrient loading by anthropogenic sources. In Sweden, freshwaters have become browner due to increasing exports of organic matter from soils into streams, rivers, and lakes. LÄS MER
