  1. 1. Fractional Habitability comparison of slow rotating Earth-like bodies

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Gustaf Gothefors-Holm; [2023]
    Keywords : habitability; General circulation model; climate modelling;

    Abstract : ROCKE-3D is a contemporary Global Circulation Model allowing research into the complex processes behind the climate of planets. Using ROCKE-3D one can construct a model coupling atmosphere, land, and ocean revealing how the climate of a planet evolves over time. READ MORE

  3. 2. Exploring the interactions between local public opinion, the media, and foreign policy toward Chinese investments in Ecuador

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Nordiska Latinamerikainstitutet

    Author : Anuar Temirov; [2022]
    Keywords : Public opinion about China; Ecuador; foreign policy; Ecuadorian media; Chinese credit and investment; time series regression; content analysis;

    Abstract : In an increasingly polarizing world, the debate on the importance of public opinion in shaping foreign policy decisions has been raging over. This study explores the interactions between Chinese investment and credit and public opinion about China in Ecuador from 2012 to 2021 through two classical international relations theories: the realist and liberal hypotheses.

  4. 3. Intercomparison of a Dynamic Ocean for Earth-like Aqua-planets

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Fredrik Plane; [2022]
    Keywords : Astrobiology; Planets; Aqua-planets; Atmosphere and Ocean physics; Exoplanet; Habitability; General Circulation Model; GCM; Climate Modelling; Dynamic Ocean;

    Abstract : I present herein an ensemble of ROCKE-3D aqua-planet simulations which I compare with the simulations presented in the work of Yang et al. (2019) and other similar works. The focus was on contrasting differences in the greenhouse effect between the models. READ MORE

  5. 4. Climate Simulations of an Exoplanet with a Slab Ocean: A 3D Model Intercomparison of various GCMs

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Moa Biserud; [2022]
    Keywords : Climate simulations; GCM; ROCKE-3D; Exoplanet; Slab Ocean; Qflux=0;

    Abstract : Three-dimensional (3D) planetary general circulation models (GCMs) have been derived from global climate models used to project 21st century changes in Earth's climate. GCMs are used to address questions regarding the climate-and habitability aspects of terrestrial planets within the solar system and assess the habitability of planets outside of the solar system, so called exoplanets.

  6. 5. Characterization and modeling of hydrology and climatology in paramo ecosystems in Colombia : A study of the paramos and climate change impact on these ecosystems as a water resource

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Lovisa Nilsson; Julia Tholander; [2022]
    Keywords : paramo; hydrology; climate change; precipitation; discharge; modeling; characterization; HBV; ENSO; paramo; hydrologi; klimatförändringar; nederbörd; avrinning; modellering; karaktärisering; HBV; ENSO;

    Abstract : Paramos are unique ecosystems situated in the tropical Andes at an elevation of 2800-4800 meters above sea level. They are home to a variety of endemic species and have a great water regulating capacity and supply around 80 % of the population in Colombia with freshwater. READ MORE
