  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

  2. 2. The political ecology of wildfires, at the intersection of climate change and landscape - A case study of rural Tuscany, Italy

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/LUCSUS

    Författare :Lauren Chastain; [2023]
    Nyckelord :wildfire; landscape mosaic; political ecology; Tuscany; sustainability science; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Wildfires are a climate change indicator whose increasing activity poses a threat to biodiversity and to ecosystem and human wellbeing. In the Mediterranean region, examination of the foundational drivers of intensifying wildfire regimes is necessary for the identification of sustainable wildfire mitigation measures. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Post-Fire Vegetation Recovery Monitoring using MODIS Time Series: A Case Study in California

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Geoinformatik

    Författare :Julia Edje; [2023]
    Nyckelord :vegetation recovery; MODIS; HRT; EVI; fire; burn severity; land cover; climate zone; California;

    Sammanfattning : Human-caused forest fires have increased in magnitude and frequency, affecting global vegetation and requiring a re-evaluation of fire regimes. Changing fire regimes have led to reduced burned areas in fire- dependent ecosystems and increased areas in fire-independent ecosystems, resulting in changes in land cover and posing a threat to native plant communities.

  4. 4. Tilläggsisolering : anpassad till Medelhavsklimat

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Författare :Aga Kader; [2022]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Dåligt inomhusklimat och hög energiförbrukning är resultat från icke isolerade byggnaderi staden Sulaymaniyah, som är en kurdisk stad i norra Irak. För att minimera detta krävsåtgärder som förbättrar byggnadens klimatsskärm, genom att minskatransmissionsförluster och reducera energianvändning med tilläggsisolering. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Using NDVI Time-Series to Examine Post-fire Vegetation Recovery in California

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Viktor Wu; [2022]
    Nyckelord :fire; California; NDVI; land cover; vegetation; post-fire recovery;

    Sammanfattning : Over the past couple of decades, fires have experienced changes on a global scale. These changing fire regimes point to an alarming direction where fire-dependent ecosystems are experiencing a decline in burned area, while fire-independent ecosystems are experiencing an increase.
