21. Towards a flexible statistical modelling by latent factors for evaluation of simulated responses to climate forcings
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, using the principles of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and the cause-effect concept associated with structural equation modelling (SEM), a new flexible statistical framework for evaluation of climate model simulations against observational data is suggested. The design of the framework also makes it possible to investigate the magnitude of the influence of different forcings on the temperature as well as to investigate a general causal latent structure of temperature data.

22. Acclimation of boreal Norway spruce to climate change: Empirical and modelling approaches
Sammanfattning : The findings of this thesis have important implications for the projections of future carbon and water fluxes for the boreal region. The observed boreal longterm acclimation responses of respiration and stomatal regulation differ from those of most temperate regions. LÄS MER
23. Sustainable Urban and Regional Development and Related Ecosystem Services and Water-Climate Interactions
Sammanfattning : To accommodate a growing global population while mitigating climate change, urban areas must grow while minimising environmental impacts. To achieve this, a city must be treated as a complex socio-ecological system in which many actors and subsystems act in unclear and unpredictable ways. LÄS MER
24. On the Arctic Seasonal Cycle
Sammanfattning : The seasonal cycle of snow and sea ice is a fundamental feature of the Arctic climate system. In the Northern Hemisphere, about 55 million km2 of sea ice and snow undergo complete melt and freeze processes every year. LÄS MER
25. Learning by modeling energy systems
Sammanfattning : Meeting the 2°C climate target would likely require reducing carbon dioxide emissions from the global energy system to virtually zero within 50-100 years, and within 30-50 years for the 1.5°C target. LÄS MER
