1. Värme och svalka i (bo)stadsmiljön. Urbana bostäder för ett föränderligt klimat genom passiv klimatreglering och ytor för odling
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljöSammanfattning : Warm, warmer, warmest average temperatures on record. The year of 2023 was the hottest ever recorded on Earth. This heat record breaking development is described as “the new normal”, which means that future buildings must be designed with this new extreme weather normality in mind. LÄS MER
2. Green Numbers in Grey Areas: A study on what methods credit analysts use to integrate incomplete ESG data in the credit rating process
C-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för redovisning och finansieringSammanfattning : In response to the urgent need to address global warming, this study investigates the efforts of two credit rating agencies (CRAs), Aries and Orion, to integrate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into their financial analyses amidst challenges posed by inconsistent and unstandardized data. Based on interviews with nine CRA representatives and Knorr Cetina's theory of epistemic cultures, the present study reveals the difficulties faced by the CRAs with directly linking ESG factors to credit ratings.

3. Climate, Irrigation, and GHGs : a Regional Analysis of EU Arable Land Values
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of EconomicsSammanfattning : This master's thesis explores the influence of climate conditions on EU arable land values, pioneering a novel approach that blends the Ricardian Approach models within an Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) framework. By employing this methodology at the regional level of NUTS2, the study offers insights into the interplay between climate and land value. LÄS MER
4. Life Cycle Assessment : a comparison of fossil energy use and climate impact on small scale manufacturing and large scale conventional manufacturing of textile toys
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, SLU/Dept. of Energy and TechnologySammanfattning : This study conducts a Life Cycle Assessment to compare the environmental impacts, specifically climate impact and fossil fuel use, of textile toys produced in China and Sri Lanka. Through evaluating large-scale industrial production in China against small-scale, handcrafted production in Sri Lanka, it identifies the considerable environmental footprint of cotton production in both scenarios.

5. Greenhouse gas emissions from peat soil thawing in spring : a comparison between fertilized and unfertilized soil
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Soil and EnvironmentSammanfattning : Peat soils drained for agriculture and forestry contribute to a significant amount of greenhouse gas emissions. Nitrous oxide is a greenhouse gas with high warming potential and agriculture in general accounts for about 70 % of nitrous oxide emissions. LÄS MER
