  1. 6. Biodiversitet i naturliga kolsänkor : sammansättning av sedimentlevande djur samt kollagring i kustnära habitat

    Kandidat-uppsats, Södertörns högskola/Institutionen för naturvetenskap, miljö och teknik

    Författare :Nadja Halltin Nijm; [2022]
    Nyckelord :kolsänkor; artsammansättning; kustekosystem; sjögräsängar; vassbälten; makrofauna; sediment;

    Sammanfattning : Havet har en nyckelroll när det kommer till de ökade koldioxidutsläppen som tär på miljön då den är en naturlig kolsänka. Kustnära habitat och vegeterade områden såsom sjögräsängar har visat sig vara mycket effektiva på att fånga upp organiskt kol som lagras i bottensedimenten. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Regenerative agriculture : a contested open moment

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

    Författare :Rickard Hedling; [2022]
    Nyckelord :regenerative agriculture; alternative food networks; food sovereignty; political ecology; discourse food systems;

    Sammanfattning : Agriculture is both heavily impacted by climate change and responsible for greenhouse gas emissions causing climate change. Transitioning towards more sustainable agricultural practices is therefore imperative and requires new ways of thinking about agricultural knowledge and technologies. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Struggling to make a life in the Peruvian Amazon: A case study on the livelihood activities in the indigenous community Naranjal

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Célina Marie Scülfort; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Sustainable Development; SDGs 2; 3; 15; agriculture and forestry; rural livelihoods; indigenous communities; Peruvian Amazon; forest landscapes; smallholder farming; access to food; local knowledge;

    Sammanfattning : International climate mitigation agendas increasingly focus on the conservation of tropical forests such as the Amazon due to their high potential of sequestering large amounts of carbon. At the same time, Peru’s Amazonian frontier is increasingly subject to market pressures and other factors contributing to deforestation and the expansion of the agricultural frontier. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Evaluating vegetation carbon storage by primary forests in Sweden using LPJ-GUESS

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

    Författare :Sacha van der Vleuten; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Carbon storage; LPJ-GUESS; Primary forests; Sweden; Natural forests; Potential natural vegetation; Dynamic vegetation model; Model optimization; LPJ-GUESS evaluation; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Over the past 200 years, the structure of forests in Sweden has changed drastically, with forestry becoming the dominant land use. This has led to the loss of primary forests, which has major impacts on different ecosystem services, including carbon storage. LÄS MER

  5. 10. The future of captured CO2 : Analysis of the role of carbon capture, storage and utilisation in a sustainable Europe

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Industriell miljöteknik

    Författare :Oscar Granér; Daniel Johansson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :CO2; CCS; CCU; CCUS; BECCS; CRC; negative emissions; Europe; carbon pricing; EU ETS; CO2 infrastructure;

    Sammanfattning : The energy transition is one of the largest challenges our global society is facing. In 2015, the United Nations acknowledged the Paris Agreement, where the world’s nations were united to limit the global warming well below 2 °C in comparison with pre-historic levels. LÄS MER
