1. 1. The atmospheric effects of Southern Ocean open-ocean polynyas onto the coastal polynyas from EC-Earth3

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Jakob Gunnarsson; [2023-05-10]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Polynyas are recurring areas of open water or thin ice within the sea ice pack, which alter the local oceanatmosphere heat and moisture exchange. They are differentiated as coastal (latent heat) or open-ocean (sensible heat) polynya according to their formation process. READ MORE

3. 2. 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

   Author : David Ebert; [2023]
   Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; High tide flooding; Projections; Adaptation and mitigation strategies; Lunar precession; Nodal cycle; Cycle of lunar perigee; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : High tide flooding (HTF) is becoming more common in coastal regions of the United States, although this phenomenon remains largely undocumented in published literature from other parts of the world. No matter the emissions scenario over the next decades, sea level rise (SLR) is projected to continue worldwide until at least the end of the 21st century, continually pushing the frequency and severity of HTF.
