1. Forests and Greenhouse gases. Fluxes of CO2, CH4 and N2O from drained forests on organic soils
Sammanfattning : One of the largest environmental threats believed to be facing us today is global warming due to the accumulation of green house gases (GHG). The concentrations of GHG in the atmosphere are a result of the net strength of different sinks and sources. LÄS MER
2. Effects of forest management on greenhouse gas fluxes in a boreal forest
Sammanfattning : Forest ecosystems cover 31% of the terrestrial land area and store large amounts of carbon in biomass and in soils. The 2015 Paris Agreement recognizes the importance of sinks and reservoirs of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in forests and the importance of enhancing them through sustainable forest management policies.

3. Clean development Mechanism (CDM) Policy and Implementation in China
Sammanfattning : China is the second largest emitter of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the world. Since 68% of its primary energy is from coal, China’s average energy intensity is 7.5 times higher than the EU and 4.3 times higher than the US (EU, 2003). LÄS MER
4. Modelling Climate Policy – Trade-Off Metrics, Resource Markets, and Uncertainty
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of five papers related to climate change policy. In paper I andpaper II we discuss the use of Global Warming Potentials (GWPs) that facilitate the tradeoffbetween abatement of the different greenhouse gases (GHGs). LÄS MER
5. Regional Energy Systems with Retrofitted Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Plants
Sammanfattning : Fossil fuel depletion, economic development, urban expansion and climate change present tough challenges to municipal- and regional-scale energy systems. Regional energy system planning, including waste treatment, renewable energy supply, energy efficiency, and climate change, are considered essential to meet these challenges and move toward a sustainable society.
