3. 2. Värmereducerande åtgärder för urbana mikroklimat

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

   Author : Alice Ljungdahl; Ida Grundh; [2023]
   Keywords : klimatförändringar; värmeböljor; värmeöar; värmeöeffekt; klimatanpassning; temperaturreglering; värmereducerande åtgärder; värmereducering; mikroklimat; vegetation; skugga;

   Abstract : Det står klart att rådande klimatförändringar har lett och kommer i framtiden att leda till ökade temperaturer samt fler och längre perioder av värmeböljor. Ökade temperaturer i kombination med värmeöeffekter medför att urbana miljöer är särskilt utsatta och människor som väljer att bosätta sig på sådana platser riskerar allvarliga konsekvenser när det gäller hälsa och välbefinnande.

   Abstract : Steel is one of the most essential metals in the world, and it plays a vital role in various industries. The growing demand for steel has resulted in increased CO2 emissions, with the steel industry contributing to approximately 7% of global emissions of carbon dioxide. READ MORE

5. 4. Feasibility study of evaporative cooling and toilet flushing using rainwater in a public building

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Claudia Reig Moril; [2023]
   Keywords : Rainwater; Evaporative cooling; Toilet flushing; Energy; Water; Feasibility.; Regnvatten; Evaporativ kyla; Toalettspolning; Energi; Vatten; Genomförbarhet.;

   Abstract : The project "Feasibility of evaporative cooling and toilet flushing using rainwater in a public building" combines rainwater harvesting with the evaporative cooling technology and toilet flushing and explores the practicality and viability of implementing this innovative system in the city of Gothenburg, Sweden. This study comprehensively investigates various aspects related to water and energy, and the entire system is computationally modelled using the Equation Engineering Solver (EES) software. READ MORE

6. 5. Assessing the relation between temperature buffering, soil moisture, and canopy cover in a Swedish coniferous forest

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

   Author : Mark Van der Keijl; [2023]
   Keywords : Temperature buffering; forest microclimate; soil moisture; canopy cover; forest management; Sweden;

   Abstract : Forests buffer temperature extremes through processes such as canopy shading, wind speed reduction, and evapotranspiration. As a result, microclimates are formed within forests whose climatic conditions are distinctly different from the surrounding macroclimate. READ MORE
