  1. 1. Developing a Cost Model For Combined Offshore Farms : The Advantages of Co-Located Wind and Wave Energy

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Författare :Eva Blech; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Wave Energy; Floating Offshore Wind; Co-located Wind-Wave Farm; Levelized Cost of Energy; Multi-Source Offshore Farm; Vågenergi; flytande havsbaserad vindkraft; samlokaliserad vind- och vågpark; nivellerad energikostnad; havsbaserad park med flera källor;

    Sammanfattning : Previous research has displayed that multi-source farms provide an opportunity to reduce the cost of energy and improve the energy output quality. This thesis assesses the cost competitiveness of co-located wind-wave farms, specifically floating offshore wind (FLOW) turbines and CorPower’s wave energy converters (WEC). LÄS MER

  2. 2. Thermal tolerance of native vs. invasive marine species at the Northern coast of Portugal

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Sofie Michelsen; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Biodiversity; Climate change; Marine ecosystems; Marine heat waves; Intertidal environment; Invasive species; Macroalgae; Mussels; Sustainable Development; Thermal tolerance;

    Sammanfattning : Two prominent factors posing a major threat to biodiversity in marine ecosystems are climate change and the establishment of invasive species, and the interaction between these two. Because of the upwelling of cold, nutrient-rich water, the coast of Portugal is a thermal refuge and distribution edge for cold-adapted species, making it a particularly important study area from a biodiversity point of view.

    Sammanfattning : Bakgrund: Kroniskt obstruktiv lungsjukdom (KOL) orsakar inflammerade celler i luftrör och lungvävnad. Personer med KOL upplever att kroppen inte orkar och känner sig begränsade i vardagen. Syfte: Belysa anhörigas upplevelser att vårda en närstående med kroniskt obstruktiv lungsjukdom. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Restitiching the Common Thread : The Potential of Closed Loop Recycling in the Textile and Clothing Industry for Regional and Entrepreneurial Resilience in Northern Portugal

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Kulturgeografiska institutionen

    Författare :Roman Isaac; [2018]
    Nyckelord :textile and clothing industry; closed loop recycling; circular economy; regional resilience; entrepreneurial resilience; sustainability; doughnut economics; cognitive mapping; Northern Portugal;

    Sammanfattning : This master’s thesis explores how stakeholders in the textile and clothing industry (TCI) perceive the potential of closed loop recycling (CLR), a circular economy (CE) strategy, for entrepreneurial and regional resilience in Northern Portugal. Since textile and clothing production globally contributes significantly to breaching the planetary boundaries and increases social inequalities, a transition towards sustainable business practices is needed.
