  1. 1. A Small Scale CLEW Analysis of the Cape Town Region : Estimating the Effects of Climate Change on the Water Provision

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Energisystemanalys

    Författare :Lydia Petschelt; [2013]
    Nyckelord :City of Cape Town; CLEW; climate change; local scale; precipitation; water availability; WCWSS;

    Sammanfattning : The knowledge of the influences climate change can have on a regional scale is still very limited. Generally it is known that the climate, land use, energy and water resources are intertwined. The CLEW strategy focuses on an approach to quantify these interrelations. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Centennial and Millennial climate-carbon cycle feedback analysis for future anthropogenic climate change

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

    Författare :Dipa Paul Chowdhury; [2013]
    Nyckelord :sensitivity; scenario; climate change; earth system model; feedback; carbon cycle; Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Increased anthropogenic emission of CO2 is alleged to impact the climate system in the future, which will affect the feedback between carbon cycle and climate change. In this project, a climate-carbon cycle feedback analysis has been conducted by using long simulated time series (2001 – 3000) data, derived from the Max-Planck-Institute / University of Wisconsin-Madison Earth System Model (MPI/UW ESM).

  4. 3. Evaluation of RCA & RCA GUESS and estimation of vegetation-climate feedbacks over India for present climate

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

    Författare :Nitin Chaudhary; [2011]
    Nyckelord :India; vegetation feedbacks; geography; climate change; GCMs; Validation; physical geography; RCMs; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Popular summary Changes in climate modify the terrestrial vegetation distribution that in turn affects the climate system by altering the balance of radiation, water, momentum, CO2 and other important atmospheric gases. This entire process is termed as vegetation-climate feedbacks. These feedbacks are studied by regional earth system model. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Climate change impacts on crop yields and adaptive measures for agricultural sector in the lowlands of Lesotho

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

    Författare :Maoela Malebajoa; [2010]
    Nyckelord :climate change; A2 and B2 SRES; MAGICC SCENGEN; CROPWAT; Crop Yields; adaptive measures; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Summary: Climate change has emerged as the most outstanding of the environmental challenges and there is a necessity to evaluate its impacts on the vulnerable development sectors such as agriculture. In this study, spatially adjusted general circulation models and crop models were used to simulate climate change scenarios and the associated cereal crops yields for the western lowlands of Lesotho for the year 2030-2050 and 2080-2100.

  7. 5. Koldioxidbalans och koldioxidinnehållsimulering av barrskog i Kristianstads län, samt klimatförändringens inverkan på skogen

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

    Författare :Peter Valoczi; [2007]
    Nyckelord :Kyoto-protokollet; kolbalans; kolinnehåll; koldioxid; CO2 FIX; prodMod; norway spruce; scots pine; Hässleholm; greenhouse gases; UNFCCC; Kyoto protocol; ppm; SRES; IPCC; carbon dioxide; carbon stocks; klimatförändringar; gran; tall; Kristianstads län; biomassa; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Koncentrationen av koldioxid i atmosfären har ökat sedan den förindustriella eran, mellan åren 1000 och 1750, från 280 parts per million ( ppm – miljondelar ) till 368 ppm år 2000 vilket motsvarar ungefär 31 %. Enligt de sex illustrativa utsläppsscenariernas, utsago ( Special Report on Emissions Scenarios, SRES ) kommer koncentrationen av koldioxid vara mellan 540 och 970 ppm år 2100 ( IPCC, 2001 ). LÄS MER
