1. 31. Location decisions regarding forest plantations in Brazil : Which aspects are important to actors in the Brazilian tree industry?

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Författare :Katarina Nilsson Lannerstedt; [2020]
   Nyckelord :Eucalyptus; sustainable development; land use; decision-making; policy; legislation; independent forest certification; economic sustainability; environmental sustainability; social sustainability;

   Sammanfattning : Brazilian productive forest plantations and sustainability is a continuous subject of debate, since such forest plantations constitute an increasing proportion of the Brazilian forest cover, and because of documented instances where some establishments have resulted in negative impacts on local ecosystems and communities. Meanwhile, balancing economic, environmental and social sustainability is becoming an important concern in industrial decision-making given the increasing importance of the global sustainability goals.

3. 32. Växtval för regnbäddar : en gestaltning för en regnbädd i Rosendal, Uppsala

   Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

   Författare :Ellen Bergenfeldt; [2020]
   Nyckelord :regnbäddar; växtval; dagvattenbädd; dagvatten; ekosystemtjänster; Rosendal;

   Sammanfattning : En av de funktioner grönytor fyller är att ta hand om och infiltrera vatten. När städer i världen växer, ökar mängden hårdgjorda ytor. Det innebär att avrinningen blir större och därmed även mängden dagvatten som behöver tas omhand. På grund av klimatförändringarna förväntas dessutom nederbörden stundtals bli mer intensiv. LÄS MER

4. 33. Kan våra jordar rädda klimatet?

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning

   Författare :My Knutsson; [2020]
   Nyckelord :Soil organic carbon; carbon sequestration; carbon storage; temperate; land use; agricultural land; pasture land; forest; urban park and Lund; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from land use, and increasing carbon storage in soils, is an important climate mitigation strategy. I conducted a literature study based on 174 articles to investigate the potential of temperate forest-, agricultural- and pasture land and urban parks to store carbon in soils; identified measures that could increase their storage potential by increasing the rate of sequestration of atmospheric carbon or slow the rate of carbon loss from soils and vegetation; and used these results to estimate potential carbon uptake by the Municipality of Lund, Sweden to 2030.

5. 34. To bee or not to bee - an evaluation of management strategies to promote pollinators in private gardens

   Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning

   Författare :Clara Jonsson; [2020]
   Nyckelord :Bees; pollinators; garden management; flowers; urban; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : Urbanisation has an increasingly negative effect on wild bees and other pollinating insects because it results in land-use change and habitat-loss, leading to population declines. We rely on ecosystem services that bees provide and must ensure their survival. LÄS MER

7. 35. Perspectives of a climate-neutral urban district : Evaluation of greenhouse gas emissions, exergy and energy balances

   Master-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för byggnadsteknik, energisystem och miljövetenskap

   Författare :Petter Berner Wik; [2020]
   Nyckelord :Carbon neutral district; energy passive district; sustainable cities; exergy positive district; passive- nearly zero- and plus-energy buildings;

   Sammanfattning : A climate-neutral city can be viewed at in many different aspects. This report investigates the greenhouse gas, exergy and energy balance for both heat pumps and district heat supply at local, national and methane gas perspectives of the energy conversion processes. LÄS MER
