  1. 1. Assessment of Climate Change Impact on Rainfed Barley Production in the Mediterranean Basin : The Almeria province case study

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Francesco Saretto; [2024]
    Keywords : Barley; Rainfed; Climate Change; AquaCrop; AquaCrop-OSPy; Mediterranean; Climate Change Adaptation; Crop Modeling; Agriculture; Irrigation;

    Abstract : The Mediterranean basin is widely recognized as a climate change hotspot, with climate models projecting increasingly warmer and drier conditions that will impact local ecosystems, communities, and economies. Agriculture will be among the most affected sectors, with harsher conditions for crops’ growth, greater water needs, and lower yields. READ MORE

  3. 2. Impact of Sea Surface Temperature and Salinity on Phytoplankton blooms phenology in the North Sea

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Krystyna Muszel; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; North Sea; phytoplankton; bloom; phenology; remote sensing; TIMESAT software; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Various environmental forcings can affect phytoplankton blooms, resulting in changes in bloom timing and abundance, which can have many far-reaching consequences. Understanding bloom phenology is crucial to predict and counter any potential harmful changes. READ MORE

  4. 3. ASSESING HISTORICAL (1926-1996) NEAR-SURFACE WIND SPEED VARIABILITY ACROSS SWEDEN

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Jessika Lönn; [2022-06-27]
    Keywords : Near-surface wind speed; teleconnection patterns; Sweden; stilling; reversal;

    Abstract : Homogenized near-surface wind speed (NSWS) series of 7 stations from rescued observational journals have been analyzed for the 70-years time-period 1926-1996 to investigate past changes and variations across Sweden. During the whole period, there has been a statistically significant (at p < 0.05) decreasing trend of -0.11 m s-1 decades-1. READ MORE

  5. 4. Arctic amplification and their relation to regional warming

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Marianne Olsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Arctic; arctic amplification; climate; climate change; global warming; metrics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Arctic amplification (AA) is defined as the enhanced warming of the surface temperatures in the Arctic region relative to the globe or Northern Hemisphere (NH) in response to external forcings. It is a prominent feature of the climate system. READ MORE

  6. 5. Analysing seasonal snow cover trends and patterns on Svalbard

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

    Author : Dhruv Maniktala; [2022]
    Keywords : snow cover; snow disappearance; snow onset; snow-free duration; CARRA; Svalbard;

    Abstract : Rapid warming in the Arctic is highly impacting the cryosphere in the region, causing melting of the sea ice, retreat of glaciers and reduction in the snow cover. If suffering further temperature increase, the albedo of the region would reduce due to higher absorption of the solar radiation in snow-free areas. READ MORE
