1. Climate effects of managed boreal forests : combining effects from carbon balance and albedo
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and EnvironmentAbstract : Boreal forests are considered as a global carbon (C) sink and are utilized for climate-change mitigation. Judging the climate impact of a forest solely on its C balance might leave an incomplete picture, since forest-climate feedbacks are also caused by various other biophysical and biogeochemical processes, e.g., albedo effects.

2. Intercomparison of a Dynamic Ocean for Earth-like Aqua-planets
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomiAbstract : 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

3. Mapping future floods in coastal Bangladesh - Impacts of projected changes in sea level and precipitation
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : The exposure to flooding in coastal Bangladesh is expected to increase throughout the century as a result of climate change-induced sea level rise and intensified monsoon precipitation. The current consequences of flooding include damage to infrastructure, economy, and health through inundation and saline intrusion, and are likely to affect a larger population in the future.

4. Analysis of the Stratospheric Aerosol Load After the 2019 Raikoke Eruption
University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : The stratospheric aerosol load after the eruption of Raikoke in 2019 have been analysed with satellite data from the CALIPSO satellite. The goal was to see how much the stratospheric aerosol load increased due to the Brewer Dobson circulation, and further, how this affected the stratospheric aerosol optical depth (AOD), and the corresponding radiative forcing (RF).

5. Development and Assessment of Re-Fleet Assignment Model under Environmental Considerations
University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteoriAbstract : The imminent threat of global catastrophe due to climate change gets more real by each passing year. The Aviation trade association, IATA, claims that Aviation accounts for approximately 2% of the Greenhouse Gases (GHG) caused by human activities, and 3.5% of the total Radiative Forcing. READ MORE
