  1. 6. The Impact of Global Warming on Wind Power Potential in the Greater Horn of Africa

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Bromwel Apondi; [2023-08-17]
    Nyckelord :Near-surface wind speed; the Greater Horn of Africa; ERA5; Wind power density; CORDEX-Africa;

    Sammanfattning : The wind speed variability and wind power potential in the Greater Horn of Africa is analyzed in this study to fill a knowledge gap regarding if wind power can be used more as a source of energy for the region. This is investigated based on reanalysis data from ERA5, observed wind speeds, CORDEX-Africa regional climate models (RCMs) for future projections and a literature review. LÄS MER

  3. 7. PERCEPTION OF URBAN TREES AND THEIR ECOSYSTEM SERVICES

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

    Författare :Emma Dalros Sköld; [2023-08-03]
    Nyckelord :perceptions; tree preferences; urban trees; ecosystem services;

    Sammanfattning : Global urbanization is one of the most wide-ranging, irreversible, and rapid land-use changes in modern history. Natural elements, such as trees, should be incorporated into cities to produce sustainable urban environments. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Biblioteksgatan utan bilar. Preferenser och förväntade effekter av trafiklugnande åtgärder i Mölnlycke

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för ekonomi och samhälle

    Författare :Joel Otterloo Kuronen; [2023-06-28]
    Nyckelord :”trafiklugnande åtgärder”; ”bilfri zon”; ”bilfria zoners effekter på handel”; ”preferenser kring trafiklugnande åtgärder”; ”hållbar mobilitet”;

    Sammanfattning : With the threat from global warming, we must change our way of life, to avoid a planetary catastrophe. One of the biggest polluters is the way we transport ourselves and therefor one of the most important ways to work against global warming is through changing to a more sustainable transportation: from cars to walking, cyckling and commuting.

  5. 9. IMPLICATION FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF GOTHENBURG TO ALIGN WITH THE GOVERNMENT’S TARGET REGARDING CLIMATE NEUTRALITY BY 2045 - Scenarios and Consequences

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

    Författare :Nafiseh Kazemi Ashtiani; [2023-06-21]
    Nyckelord :Climate Neutrality; GHG emissions; higher education institutions HEIs ; Net Zero emission; carbon footprint; carbon capture and storage CCS ;

    Sammanfattning : It is widely acknowledged that one of the most significant global challenges of the 21 st century is climate change. In its Fifth Assessment Report (2014), the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) described the present extent of the problem and the hazards involved, citing greenhouse gas emissions from human activities as the primary contributor to global warming since the mid-20th century.

  7. 10. SOIL GROSS NITROGEN MINERALISATION AND FOREST GROWTH IN FOUR HEMIBOREAL FOREST STANDS IN SOUTHWEST SWEDEN

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

    Författare :Linnéa Eriksson; [2023-04-20]
    Nyckelord :soil C:N; forest production; 15N isotope dilution; gross N mineralisation; ammonium; soil carbon; soil nitrogen; root exudates; stoichiometric decomposition; boreal forests; priming; microbial C limitation;

    Sammanfattning : Boreal and temperate forests together make up the largest terrestrial net C sink in the world. They take up carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and store it in plant biomass and soil as they grow, making them crucial in mitigating global climate change. LÄS MER
