1. Inter-annual variability of rainfall in Central America : Connection with global and regional climate modulators
Sammanfattning : Central America is a region regularly affected by natural disasters, with most of them having a hydro-meteorological origin. Therefore, the understanding of annual changes of precipitation upon the region is relevant for planning and mitigation of natural disasters. LÄS MER
2. Short- and long-term variability in future electricity systems – Ensuring the flexibility to manage the grid frequency and inter-annual variations
Sammanfattning : To achieve climate mitigation targets, the net climate impact from electricity generation must be drastically reduced in the near future, and eventually eliminated. The level of generation must also be increased to accommodate the increasing demand as the transport and industry sectors undergo electrification. LÄS MER
3. The Carbon Dioxide System in the Baltic Sea Surface Waters
Sammanfattning : The concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is steadily increasing because of human activities such as fossil fuel burning. To understand how this is affecting the planet, several pieces of knowledge of the CO2 system have to be investigated. LÄS MER
4. The Effect of Snow on Plants and Their Interactions with Herbivores
Sammanfattning : The ongoing climate changes are predicted to accelerate fast in arctic regions with increases in both temperatures and precipitation. Although the duration of snow cover is generally expected to decrease in the future, snow depth may paradoxically increase in those areas where a large amount of the elevated precipitation will fall as snow.

5. The atmospheric contribution to Arctic sea-ice variability
Sammanfattning : The Arctic sea-ice cover plays an important role for the global climate system. Sea ice and the overlying snow cover reflect up to eight times more of the solar radiation than the underlying ocean. Hence, they are important for the global energy budget, and changes in the sea-ice cover can have a large impact on the Arctic climate and beyond. LÄS MER
