  1. 1. Microclimate modelling for agrivoltaic systems

    Författare :Sebastian Zainali; Pietro Elia Campana; Bengt Stridh; Anders Avelin; Marcos Lana; Petra Högy; Mälardalens universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Agrivoltaics; Microclimate; Modelling; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Increasing global electricity consumption and population growth have resulted in conflicts between renewable energy sources, such as bioenergy and ground-mounted photovoltaic systems, owing to the limited availability of suitable land caused by competing land uses. This challenge is further compounded by the intertwined relationship between energy and agri-food systems, where approximately 30% of global energy is consumed. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The role of microclimate for the performance and distribution of forest plants

    Författare :C. Johan Dahlberg; Kristoffer Hylander; Johan Ehrlén; Jason D. Fridley; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; performance; microclimate; spatial scales; continental; landscape; distribution patterns; distribution limits; phenology; vegetative development; reproductive development; vital rates; population growth rate; vascular plants; bryophytes; distribution modelling; Plant Ecology; växtekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Microclimatic gradients may have large influence on individual vital rates and population growth rates of species, and limit their distributions. Therefore, I focused on the influence of microclimate on individual performance and distribution of species. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Numerical Simulations of the Urban Microclimate

    Författare :Patricia Vanky; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CFD modelling; Immersed Boundary; Experimental validation; Wind comfort; Urban microclimate;

    Sammanfattning : As global urbanization is accelerating and the majority of the world's population continues to reside in cities, sustainable urban development is becoming increasingly crucial. Evaluation of the urban microclimate is a vital aspect of planning sustainable cities, as it can significantly impact on the health and comfort of urban residents. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Modelling of the daytime and night-time urban thermal environment

    Författare :Shiho Onomura; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; urban thermal environment; microclimate modelling; air temperature; mean radiant temperature; nocturnal cooling rates; synoptic weather types;

    Sammanfattning : The world’s urban population is expected to increase over the coming decades. To maintain and improve the health and well-being of urban citizens, it is important to increase our knowledge and develop methods for evaluating the urban thermal environment to support urban planning.

  7. 5. Towards Better Urban Spaces in Harmony with Microclimate: Urban design and planning regulations in hot dry Damascus, Syria

    Författare :Moohammed Wasim Yahia; Boende och bostadsutveckling; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Architecture; Arid zones; Built environment; Climate; Climatic design; Damascus; Hot dry regions; Landscape elements; Microclimate; Planning regulations; Thermal comfort; Thermal indices; Urban climate; Urban design; Urban planning;

    Sammanfattning : This research is an attempt to develop further understanding of the relationship between microclimate, thermal comfort, urban design and outdoor space users in the hot dry city of Damascus. This is done by studying the impact of urban regulations on microclimate in different urban design patterns in Damascus. LÄS MER
