  1. 1. Integrating Local Knowledge into the Spatial Analysis of Wind Power: The case study of Northern Tzoumerka, Greece

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

    Författare :Athanasios Senteles; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Geography; Geographical Information Systems; MCDA; wind energy; local knowledge; Greece; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Increasing demand for incorporating renewable energy projects into the national energy mix, is associated with international and European efforts to tackle the negative effects of climate change and strengthen energy resilience. Greece, as a member country of the European Union, has acknowledged that necessity, by implementing a national program aiming to significantly reduce Green House Gas Emissions and upscale Renewable Energy Sources (RES) project development in upcoming years.

  3. 2. Heritability of methane emission in Swedish Red cattle in northern Sweden

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Författare :Lucy Chipondoro; [2024]
    Nyckelord :methane emission; heritability; swedish Red cattle; dairy cow;

    Sammanfattning : Dairy cattle contribute a significant proportion of greenhouse gases (GHG), mainly methane (CH4), among other livestock species. Methane has a negative impact on climate; therefore, its reduction is a top priority for a sustainable dairy production system. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Lär vi oss av historien? En kvalitativ studie som undersöker två perspektiv av hållbar utveckling i relation till gruvbrytning i Kiruna

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för globala studier

    Författare :Hanna Thomsen; [2023-10-26]
    Nyckelord :sustainable development; agenda 2030; indigenous; sami; mining; postcolonial theory; justice; global studies; development studies;

    Sammanfattning : To meet the contemporary demands of sustainable development, enterprises aim to undergo a green transition in order to handle the threats of climate change. Through the lens of postcolonial theories questioning the knowledge apprised from western societies, a new light can be shed on alternative approaches to global conventions such as Agenda 2030.

  5. 4. 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

  7. 5. Decreases over time in shannon diversity of land snails

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

    Författare :Jens Hemming; [2023-02-15]
    Nyckelord :Climate change; global warming; land snails; species composition;

    Sammanfattning : With rising temperatures as a consequence of climate change, suitable habitats for land snails in the northern hemisphere may be shifting northwards. However, there is a lack of studies that explore the latitudinal effects that climate change has on land snails. LÄS MER
