4. 2. Quantifying hydroclimatic change impacts on infectious diseases : Signals and geographies from local to global scale

   Author : Yan Ma; Georgia Destouni; Zahra Kalantari; Arvid Bring; Rita Colwell; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydroclimatic change; infectious diseases; climate sensitivity; disease geography; quantitative study; scoping review; naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

   Abstract : Hydroclimatic change has the potential to directly or indirectly increase the occurrence and expand or shift the geographical range of infectious diseases. This may pose particular threats in the Nordic-Arctic Region, where warming is more rapid than in other parts of the world, but the climate sensitivities of various infectious diseases still remain to be investigated in this and other regions.

5. 3. Global-Scale Modelling of the Land-Surface Water Balance : Development and Analysis of WASMOD-M

   Author : Elin Widén-Nilsson; Sven Halldin; Chong-yu Xu; Lars-Christer Lundin; Jens Christian Refsgaard; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Hydrology; Global; Water balance; Runoff; Regionalisation; Model uncertainty; Multi-objective; Parameter; Evaluation criteria; Routing; Climate change; Hydrologi;

   Abstract : Water is essential for all life on earth. Global population increase and climate change are projected to increase the water stress, which already today is very high in many areas of the world. The differences between the largest and smallest global runoff estimates exceed the highest continental runoff estimates. READ MORE

6. 4. Modeling the global fate and transport of perfluoroalkylated substances (PFAS)

   Author : James M. Armitage; Ian T. Cousins; Michael S. McLachlan; David Ellis; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; perfluoroalkylated substances; global-scale; fate and transport; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

   Abstract : Perfluoroalkylated substances (PFAS) are persistent contaminants that are widely distributed in the global environment. Despite the fact that these chemicals have been manufactured and used for over 50 years, there has been little scientific and regulatory interest until very recently. READ MORE
