  1. 21. Aerosol–cloud interactions in a warming Arctic

    Författare :Linn Karlsson; Paul Zieger; Radovan Krejci; Annica M. L. Ekman; Birgit Wehner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aerosols; clouds; aerosol-cloud interactions; Arctic; climate; field studies; Environmental Sciences; miljövetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Atmospheric aerosol particles are small liquid or solid particles suspended in the air. They are present in the atmosphere all around us and affect the planetary energy balance by scattering and absorbing radiation and by interacting with clouds. In model projections of future climate, aerosol–cloud interactions contribute a lot of uncertainty. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Morphological and chemical leaf traits of tropical montane tree species and their responses to warming

    Författare :Manishimwe Aloysie; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tropical montane forests; tropical trees; leaf morphology; leaf nutrients; warming climate; climate change;

    Sammanfattning : Leaf morphological and chemical traits of tropical trees vary along climate gradients, but it is currently unclear how they will respond to a rapidly warming climate and how this will vary among species. Considering this, tropical trees native to East and Central Africa were investigated in three complementary studies in Rwanda. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Spatial and temporal ecology of oak-associated fungal communities

    Författare :Maria Faticov; Ayco Tack; Peter Hambäck; Paula Baptista; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; abiotic and biotic forces; climate warming; community ecology; foliar fungal community; host genotype; plant microbiome; powdery mildew; seasonal dynamics; warming-by-genotype interaction; Quercus robur; soil fungal community; spatial patterns; ekologi och evolution; Ecology and Evolution;

    Sammanfattning : Plants host a large diversity of microorganisms, which includes fungi, bacteria and archaea. Among these, fungi are highly diverse, and known to play a vital role in plant health and in regulation of the essential ecosystem functions. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Fossil Capital : The Rise of Steam-Power in the British Cotton Industry, c. 1825-1848, and the Roots of Global Warming

    Författare :Andreas Malm; Humanekologi; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Fossil economy; steam-power; water-power; cotton industry; Britain; capital accumulation; global warming;

    Sammanfattning : The more we know about the catastrophic implications of climate change, the more fossil fuels are burnt in the world. How did we get caught up in this mess? This thesis returns to a crucial moment in the emergence of the fossil economy: the rise of steam-power. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Essays on environmental and development economics : Public policy, resource prices and global warming

    Författare :Linda Sahlén; Thomas Aronsson; Kenneth Backlund; Ing-Marie Gren; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Climate policy; technology transfer; computable general equilibrium model; environmental fiscal reform; revenue recycling; water scarcity; resource prices; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four self-contained papers, which are all related to important environmental and natural resource issues from a developing country perspective.Paper [I] concerns climate policy and addresses the potential welfare gains of introducing a technology transfer from the North (richer countries) to the South (poorer countries).
