1. 1. Entering the dynamic risk space : Assessing planetary boundary interactions through process-based quantifications

   Författare :Arne Tobian; Johan Rockström; Sarah Cornell; Ingo Fetzer; Dieter Gerten; Martin Volk; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Planetary boundaries; climate change; land-use change; Earth system interactions; ecosystem modeling; green water; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling; Sustainability Science;

   Sammanfattning : The planetary boundaries framework is an effort to define a safe operating space for humanity. Its rationale is that sustainable development needs to be achieved in ways that safeguard the stability of the Earth system on which human prosperity relies. LÄS MER

3. 2. Electron-scale physics in space plasma : Thin boundaries and magnetic reconnection

   Författare :Cecilia Norgren; Mats André; Jonathan Eastwood; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Most of the observable Universe consists of plasma, a kind of ionized gas that interacts with electric and magnetic fields. Large volumes of space are filled with relatively uniform plasmas that convect with the magnetic field. LÄS MER

4. 3. Navigating towards the Safe Operating Space: Systems thinking and the SDGs

   Författare :David Collste; Sarah E Cornell; Birgit Kopainsky; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; 2030 Agenda; visioning; scenarios; Sustainable Development Goals; SDGs; Three horizons; transformation; The World In 2050; Planetary Boundaries; Safe Operating Space; Plural economics; Doughnut Economics; Human Needs; Capability approach; Easterlin paradox; Sustainability; System Dynamics; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

   Sammanfattning : Can the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals be reached within the Planetary Boundaries? This licentiate thesis aims to explore this question by navigating towards the safe operating space, as defined by the planetary boundaries, through integrating issues, disciplines, scales, models and stakeholders. The thesis is a milestone within the European Union financed project “Adaptation to a New Economic Reality (AdaptEconII)”. LÄS MER

5. 4. Life cycle assessment in the development of forest products : Contributions to improved methods and practices

   Författare :Gustav Sandin; Magdalena Svanström; Greg Peters; Mats Westin; Annica Pilgård; Michael Narodoslawsky; RISE; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; R D; LCA; Life cycle assessment; wood; forest product; forestry; impact assessment; scenario modelling; end-of-life modelling; allocation; multi-functional; planetary boundaries; life cycle inventory; life cycle impact assessment; environmental assessment;

   Sammanfattning : The prospect of reducing environmental impacts is a key driver for the research and development (R&D) of new forest products. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is often used for assessing the environmental impact of such products, e.g. for the purpose of guiding R&D. LÄS MER

7. 5. In silico methods to prioritize chemicals with high exposure potential

   Författare :Efstathios Reppas Chrysovitsinos; Matthew MacLeod; Anna Sobek; Michael Matthies; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; free energy relationship; solvation parameters; polymers; materials; partitioning; octanol; Arctic contaminants; AMAP; POPs; Stockholm Convention; vPvB; REACH; OECD; QSAR; planetary boundaries; persistence; bioaccumulation; long-range transport; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : Chemicals offer a wide range of desired functions and are used in a variety of consumer goods and industrial sectors. The number of individual synthetic organic chemicals produced and the total global chemical production volume are increasing. LÄS MER
