  1. 16. Modelling Climate Policy – Trade-Off Metrics, Resource Markets, and Uncertainty

    Författare :Daniel Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; OPEC; GWP; energy; uncertainty; biomass; climate change; oil; land use; greenhouse gases; Kyoto Protocol;

    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

  3. 17. The Construction of a Sustainable Development in Times of Climate Change

    Författare :Eric Brandstedt; Praktisk filosofi; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; sustainable development; climate justice; Climate change; needs; sufficientarianism; feasibility; constructivism; nonideal theory; limits;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation is a contribution to the debate about ‘climate justice’, i.e. a call for a just and feasible distribution of responsibility for addressing climate change. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Atmospheric circulation regimes and climate change

    Författare :Jenny Brandefelt; Erland Källén; Jonas Nycander; Vim Verkley; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; atmospheric large-scale circulation; greenhouse gas forcing; climate sensitivity; Meteorology; Meteorologi;

    Sammanfattning : The Earth's atmosphere is expected to warm in response to increasing atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHG). The response of the Earth's complex and chaotic climate system to the GHG emissions is, however, difficult to assess. In this thesis, two issues of importance for the assessment of this response are studied. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Instruments for reaching climate objectives. Focusing on the time aspects of bioenergy and allocation rules in the European Union's Emission Trading System

    Författare :Lars Zetterberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Climate Policy; Climate Impacts; European Union; Bioenergy; Forest residues; Carbon dioxide; Radiative Forcing; Peat; EU ETS; Emissions Trading; Allocation; Incentives; Benchmarking;

    Sammanfattning : The Europeans Union’s (EU’s) climate and energy strategy aims at reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) by 20 % (compared to 1990) and to increase the share of renewable energy to 20 % by the year 2020. Increased use of bioenergy is considered key in these efforts. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Historical anthropogenic radiative forcing of changes in biogenic secondary organic aerosol

    Författare :Juan Camilo Acosta Navarro; Ilona Riipinen; Annica Ekman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Human activities have lead to changes in the energy balance of the Earth and the global climate. Changes in atmospheric aerosols are the second largest contributor to climate change after greenhouse gases since 1750 A.D. LÄS MER
