1. 1. Decreases over time in shannon diversity of land snails

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

   Author : Jens Hemming; [2023-02-15]
   Keywords : Climate change; global warming; land snails; species composition;

   Abstract : With rising temperatures as a consequence of climate change, suitable habitats for land snails in the northern hemisphere may be shifting northwards. However, there is a lack of studies that explore the latitudinal effects that climate change has on land snails. READ MORE

3. 2. Integrating Waste Heat from Hydrogen Production Into District Heating

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Fawzi Kayali; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydrogen; Electrolysis; Waste Heat Recovery; Combined Heat and Power Plant; District Heating; Simulation; Sustainable Heating Systems; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The aim of this research is to explore the feasibility of the integration of waste heat from electrolyzers within a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant and district heating (DH) network and suggest a practical setup for integration. With the escalating emphasis on the development of green hydrogen through electrolysis powered by renewable energy, a substantial amount of waste heat is generated, typically left unused. READ MORE

4. 3. Urban flood risk mitigation : A perspective form urban planning

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Andreas Brandow; [2023]
   Keywords : Urban indicators; Resilience; Urban flooding; Flood protection and mitigation; Luleå;

   Abstract : Due to the global warming and climate change, an increased frequency of high intensity rains and other disasters are expected all around the world. To predict this change in climate the IPCC has created a set of climate scenarios, RCPs, that will try to predict the future climate based on how much we are able to adapt and mitigate the effects we as a species have on the environment.
