Cyclones distribution and intensities impact directly on human activities, mainly due to their associated intense precipitation and winds. The main aim of this thesis is to understand changes in the cyclones originated in the South Atlantic focusing on their genesis and intensifying mechanisms. Cyclones are identified and tracked based on the relative vorticity field at 850 hPa computed from the winds. The characteristics of the cyclones are obtained by diagnostic variables sampled within a radial distance from each cyclone center and to produce a spatial distribution of the cyclone properties

The purpose of this paper is to examine links between climate change and conflicts. The report aims to produce relevant insights on the security risks posed by climate change in the rural pastoral area Sarambei in western Kenya. The research was conducted in spring 2018 and founded by an MFS-scholarship from Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA). The research examines the hypothesis that climate change is increasing the risk of insecurity. Through qualitative methods twenty respondents living in Sarambei and five experts were interviewed.

Abstract:
Anyone familiar with the climate change debate is familiar with the ―scientific uncertainty‖ argument, which usually goes something like this: The response to climate change must be based on sound science, not on speculation or theory. There is too much uncertainty and too much that we do not know about climate change. It would be irresponsible to undertake measures to reduce emissions, which could carry high economic costs, until we know that these are warranted.

För att besvara frågeställningen presenteras de huvudsakliga konsekvenserna av klimatförändringarn

AbstractThere is a major relationship between these two aspects: climate change and IPDs (Internal Displacement Persons) – as climate change is a major challenge for people who faced displacement and leave their shelters – which makes their living conditions worst and it leads result in diminishing the wellbeing of people (Ferris, 2011). Moreover, it has been observed that the researcher has successfully contributed in accomplishing the research concern and attaining the effective results – while involving the role of international Humanitarian Law which is used to protect the needs of climate

The issue of the environment first emerged as a focus in contemporary art practice in the 1970s. However, climate change art as a new direction in environmental art has only been an area of significant focus since the early 2000s. As a creative intervention, it is a reaction to the global phenomenon of the build-up of greenhouse gases in the Earth’s atmosphere, the urgent need for greater diplomatic cooperation internationally and sustained domestic policies and programs to mitigate and adapt to climate change. This doctoral research explores the role of visual art in producing new strategies

Die Dissertation beschäftigt sich mit den Auswirkungen des Klimawandels auf europäische Agrarmärkte im Jahre 2050, unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Getreide- und Ölsaatenmärkte. Dazu werden die klimabedingten Änderungen der Pflanzenproduktivität des Vegetationsmodells LPJmL, welche auf fünf unterschiedlichen Klimamodellprojektionen basieren, in das Marktmodell ESIM implementiert. ESIM ist ein partielles Gleichgewichtsmodell, welches explizit Agrarmärkte der einzelnen EU-Mitgliedsstaaten simuliert. Zur Berücksichtigung der Unsicherheiten die der Klima-Einfluss-Modellierung zugrunde liegt, we

Abstract:
This thesis aims to give a broad and detailed view of the functioning of macroeconomic policies in the context of environmental sustainability. In the historical period in which we find ourselves, the need for an economic transition to a low-emission and more environmentally friendly economy is compulsory if not urgent. The outcome of this challenge lies in the efficiency of resource allocation and the ability to implement transactional policies without damaging the current economic situation. In this respect, the first step towards a more sustainable economy is to outline objectives, as descr

Abstract:
The history of the UNFCCC climate negotiations over the past 20 years has shown how difficult it is to reach an international climate agreement that is both legally binding and environmentally effective enough to ensure that humankind can avoid the worst consequences projected from climate change. Some experts even see the world drifting towards a 4°C mean temperature rise. It is therefore necessary to start exploring what future, non-cooperative climate change regimes might be expected to look like. One immediate consequence is that adaptation to climate change has become increasingly relevan
