  1. 16. Making Sense of Environmental Values : Wetlands in Kenya

    Författare :Charlotte Billgren; Hans Holmén; Stefan Anderberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Environmental values; interdisciplinarity; economic environmental valuation; stakeholder analysis; emergy analysis; risk analysis; cultural theory; Kenya; wetlands; natural resource management; arena perspective; Miljövärden; tvärvetenskap; ekonomisk miljövärdering; stakeholder analys; emergy analys; riskanalys; kulturteori; Kenya; våtmarker; naturresurshantering; arenaperspektiv; Business and economics; Ekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : En av de viktigaste frågorna i världen idag är naturresurshantering. Med en väx-ande befolkning och hoten från klimatförändringar kommer förvaltningen av jordens naturresurser bli än viktigare, såväl för dagens generation som kommande generationer. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Quantifying human balance : Analysis of force plate data

    Författare :Annica Önell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Systems engineering; Systemteknik; Systemanalys; Systems Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : There is a lack of reliable methods for assessment of balance suited for routine use in clinical settings. The thesis focuses on analysis of force plate data for evaluation of balance during normal, unperturbed standing and sitting. Some commonly used force plate based methods during unperturbed standing are presented. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Estonia; forest sector; transition analysis; sustainability assessment; scenario analysis; stakeholder analysis;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis has two main objectives. The first is to analyse the potential of existing assessment tools and methods to incorporate the different dimensions of sustainability in an assessment. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Biomass Potential for Heat, Electricity and Vehicle Fuel in Sweden

    Författare :Peter Hagström; Bengt Hillring; Per Olov Nilsson; Leif Gustafsson; Paul Mitchell; Skogsmästarskolan Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; bioenergy potential; biomass potential; cost analysis; emergy; energy analysis; energy scenarios; systems analysis; thermochemical conversion; SRA - Energy; SRA - Energi;

    Sammanfattning : The main objective of this thesis was to determine how far a biomass quantity, equal to the potential produced within the Swedish borders, could cover the present energy needs inSwedenwith respect to economic and ecological circumstances. Three scenarios were studied where the available biomass was converted to heat, electricity and vehicle fuel. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; urbanization; planning support system; spatial dynamic model; urban land use change; spatial analysis; human-land interaction; socioeconomics; ecological systems; urban amenities; environmental impact assessment; what-if; decision-making; urbanisering; planeringsstödsystem; rumslig dynamisk modell; förändring av stadsmarkanvändning; rumslig analys; mänsklig-land interaktion; socioekonomi; ekologiska system; urbana bekvämligheter; miljökonsekvensbeskrivning; vad-om; beslutsfattande; Mark- och vattenteknik; Land and Water Resources Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : As global urbanization progresses, cities worldwide are growing in size, which leads to many economic, environmental, and management challenges. Recent advancements in spatial data analysis and algorithmic geography have also led to the development of various urban model-based planning support systems (PSS) for urban planning. LÄS MER
