  1. 1. Pedestrian movement and exposure to heat stress in Gothenburg, Sweden

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Madeleine Cleverstam Vikström; [2023-06-22]
    Nyckelord :urban climate; heat stress; Space Syntax; pedestrian movement; urban morphology;

    Sammanfattning : An area in Gothenburg, Sweden, representing various planning designs and microclimates, were investigated, in order to estimate how the study area manifests potential pedestrian movement patterns and urban climate conditions in terms of heat stress. The study is based on the Geographical Information System (GIS) where pedestrian movement and heat stress is calculated. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The influence of the built environment on the climate in different Swedish urban fabrics

    Magister-uppsats, Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknik

    Författare :Reem Mutwali; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Urban heat island; Urban morphology; The urban weather generator;

    Sammanfattning : The urban heat island effect is usually disregarded when considering energy-efficient measures for the built environment. This study aims to present and analyze the effect of the urban built environment on the Swedish urban climate. This analysis is done in terms of assessing the mean urban heat island and monthly average air temperature. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Effects of temperature on germination and juvenile growth in Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.)

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Författare :Gabriel von Rosen; [2022]
    Nyckelord :indoor farming; vertical farming; hydroponics; spinach; seed germination;

    Sammanfattning : As the worlds urban population grows more and more every year, it becomes increasingly important that cities become more self-sufficient on food. Indoor vertical hydroponic farms offer a solution to this by placing the farm in an urban environment and growing plants in a controlled environment. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Assessing the potential impacts of tall buildings on a predominantly low-rise built urban environment : A case study from Västerås, Sweden

    Magister-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för geografi

    Författare :Vera Schwab; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Tall buildings; The City Image; 3D modelling; GIS; Shadow Analysis; Visibility Analysis; Västerås;

    Sammanfattning : Tall buildings have been constructed in many cities over the world to accommodate the demographic and economic growth in urban areas. These structures, however, have been widely discussed concerning their potential negative impacts on urban life. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The Ecological and Social Effects of Gentrification and Urbanisation in Thailand's Lower Chao Phraya Delta

    Master-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för Urbana Studier (US)
