1. 1. The Role of Uni- and Multivariate Bias Adjustment Methods for Future Hydrological Projections and Subsequent Decision-Making

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

   Author : Anna Merle Liebenehm-Axmann; [2024]
   Keywords : Bias adjustment methods; future hydrological climate projections; statistical analysis; future streamflow analysis; biasjusteringsmetoder; framtida hydrologiska projektioner; statistisk analys; framtida vattenförings analys;

   Abstract : Climate models are essential for generating future climate projections. However, due to simplifications, the models can produce systematic differences between output and reality, which is referred to as model bias. Bias adjustment methods aim to reduce this error, which is important for making future projections more reliable. READ MORE

3. 2. Development of a Product Circularity Indicator Suitable for the EPD-scheme of Construction Products : A Review of Product Circularity Indicators and their Potential Applicability in EPDs for the Construction Sector

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Anna Hallberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Circular Economy; Product Circularity; Indicator; EPD; Construction Products; Green Buildings; Cirkulär Ekonomi; Produktcirkuläritet; Indikator; EPD; Byggprodukter; Hållbara Byggnader;

   Abstract : A change in resource consumption patterns is crucial to avoid climate change, reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and to increase climate resilience and consequently, the idea of a circular economy (CE) has gained widespread attention. The resource intense building and construction sector has become subject to both internal and external pressure to become more circular. READ MORE

4. 3. Wildfire growth modelling in Sweden - a suitability assessment of available data
