  1. 1. Trees as heat stress mitigators. The frequency of heat and cold stress in a redevelopment area in Borås, Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Simon Wiklund Wagersten; [2023-06-22]
    Keywords : Cold stress; heat stress; SOLWEIG; thermal comfort; TreePlanter;

    Abstract : As future climate is predicted to generate higher temperatures as well as more frequent extreme weather scenarios, it is essential to plan to mitigate the effects of climate change. In an attempt to mitigate one effect of climate change, this master’s thesis examines both the heat and cold stress at the area Pulsen in Borås Stad, both as the conditions are today, and after the implementation of a new detail plan.

  3. 3. Legacy effects of temperature alterations on microbial resistance and resilience to drying and rewetting

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Franklin Lee Harris; [2023]
    Keywords : microbial ecology; soil; carbon dynamics; high latitudes; climate change; moisture stress; isotopes; respiration; trait based ecology; soil microbes; Environmental Changes in High Latitudes EnCHIL ; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : With warming in soils due to climate change, a series of secondary factors arise, which have multifaceted effects on soil microbial communities. Of these, alterations to soil moisture are among the most crucial to understanding how microbial functions will change in the face of climate change. READ MORE

  4. 4. Prototyping and manufacturing of air-controlled damper unit to improve cooling system operating efficiency for data centers

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

  5. 5. Thermal tolerance of native vs. invasive marine species at the Northern coast of Portugal

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Sofie Michelsen; [2023]
    Keywords : Biodiversity; Climate change; Marine ecosystems; Marine heat waves; Intertidal environment; Invasive species; Macroalgae; Mussels; Sustainable Development; Thermal tolerance;

    Abstract : Two prominent factors posing a major threat to biodiversity in marine ecosystems are climate change and the establishment of invasive species, and the interaction between these two. Because of the upwelling of cold, nutrient-rich water, the coast of Portugal is a thermal refuge and distribution edge for cold-adapted species, making it a particularly important study area from a biodiversity point of view.
