  1. 1. Incorporation of climate effects in marine spatial planning. Possible Climate Refugia on the Swedish West Coast Based on Two Climate Scenarios

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för marina vetenskaper

    Författare :Eric Strömberg; [2023-08-11]
    Nyckelord :Climate Refugia; Climate Change; Representative Concentration Patterns; Marine Spatial Planning; Geographical Information Systems; Temperature; Salinity; Marine Management; Swedish West Coast;

    Sammanfattning : Climate change poses a significant threat to the survival and distribution of marine species and habitats. Identification and conservation of climate refugia have emerged as a strategy to safeguard vulnerable habitats and promote species resilience. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Estimating Future Forest Fire Risk in Gävleborg County Sweden in 2041-2070 Following RCP 8.5

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

    Författare :Vendela Cyrén; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Future forest fire risk; RCP 8.5; Gävleborg county; Climate change; Forest fire; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Forest fires can act as an ecosystem service by providing habitat renewal, controlling pests, and reducing the risk of extreme fires, but can at the same time disturb an ecosystem negatively. Furthermore, forest fires release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, damage property, and lead to health issues. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The Effects of Climate Change on Zirben (Pinus cembra) Distribution in the Italian Alps

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

    Författare :Nicholas Asplin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Pinus Cembra; Tree line; Tree line shift; Alps; Climate change; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Anthropogenic climate change has caused temperature increases all across the globe. Mountainous areas are among the most affected and are experiencing alarming rates of warming. Such rapid warming will have effects on alpine vegetation and their distribution throughout the alps. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Assessing the Impacts of Future Climate Change on Tree Cover Densities in Nigeria with a Proposal of States Suitable for Climate Mitigation

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

    Författare :Paula von Tschischwitz; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : With an increase in temperature (T) and a change in precipitation (P) patterns due to climate change, global conditions for tree growth are changing and shifting. While some areas experience an increase in P, favoring tree growth, many regions are also predicted to show a decrease in P, leading to trends of desertification. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Assessing the Impacts of Climate Change and Water Scarcity on Agricultural Practices in Kenya -Implications for Adaptation Strategies

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

    Författare :Sanjina Rahi Oishee; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Climate Change; Agriculture; Temperature; Precipitation; Water Scarcity; Agro-Climatic Zone; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Like other African countries, Kenya’ economy and food security is heavily dependent on agriculture. Climate change has led to variability in temperature and precipitation, and extreme weather events such as droughts and floods, all of which can significantly impact crop productivity and food security in the long-term.
