1. 1. Planning for heat resilience - A comparative study between Greater Gothenburg´s and Skåne´s work on heat

   Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Författare :Rebecca Johansson; [2023-08-17]
   Nyckelord :climate adaptation; heat mitigation; heat stress; urban planning;

   Sammanfattning : Due to climate change, it is expected that heat waves will be intensified and occur more frequently in Sweden; hence, heat-related risks are anticipated to increase, i.e., morbidity and mortality. Through heat mitigation strategies, risks associated with heat can be prevented. LÄS MER

3. 2. Staying Afloat - Examining the Resilience of the European Inland Waterway Transportation Industry in the Face of Climate Related Disruptions: A Policy and Resilience Analysis

   Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Graduate School

   Författare :Linnea Ahlgren; Hibaakh Jamac; [2023-07-03]
   Nyckelord :Climate Change; Inland Waterway Transportation; Inland Barge Companies; Inland Ports; Policies and Initiatives; Adaptation; Extreme Weather;

   Sammanfattning : Due to its lower emissions in comparison to other modes of transport, inland waterway transportation (IWT) has been increasingly considered a sustainable option by the European Union (EU), prompting a focus on transitioning towards it in recent years. However, the impact of climate change has led to a rise in extreme weather events, including floods and droughts, over the past few decades. LÄS MER

4. 3. TRADITIONAL ECOLOGICAL KNOWLEDGE IN AGRICULTURE FOR ADAPTATION/ RESILIENCE TO CLIMATE CHANGE: HIGH MOUNTAIN ASIA

   Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Författare :Dulani Lavanya Samarasekara Witharana; [2023-06-22]
   Nyckelord :climate change adaptation; resilient agroecosystems; Hindu Kush Himalaya; indigenous knowledge; traditional farming; traditional ecological knowledge;

   Sammanfattning : Mountain agricultural systems in the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) are in a unique position to contribute to promoting nature-based solutions in adaptation and resilience to climate change since they are least impacted by the influence of commercial high-production agriculture. This study aims to explore currently available literature for evidence of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) based agriculture in the HKH region and analyse their contribution to region and location specific climate change adaptation.
