  2. 11. Cross-scale mechanisms and adaptation strategies in Small-Scale Fisheries

    Author : Blanca González-Mon; Maja Schlüter; Beth Fulton; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Small-Scale fisheries; networks; agent-based modelling; trade; migration; mobility; diversification; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : Small-Scale Fisheries (SSF) are increasingly facing shocks and changes that affect their capacity to provide food and maintain the livelihoods of millions of people who depend on fishing activities. At the same time, SSF influence and are influenced by interactions across scales, where interdependencies between different places are increasingly evident. READ MORE

  4. 12. Statistical Inference on Interacting Particle Systems

    Author : Gustav Lindwall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stochastic process; mathematical biology; agent based modelling; glioblastoma; Bayesian inference;

    Abstract : Interacting particle systems, and more specifically stochastic dynamical systems, is a mathematical framework which allows for condensed and elegant modelling of complex phenomena undergoing both deterministic and random dynamics. This thesis is concerned with the topic of statistical inference on large systems of interacting particles, with the specific application of in vitro migration of cancer cells. READ MORE

  5. 13. Making complex commons work : identifying critical social-ecological factors and mechanisms for sustainable ecosystem management

    Author : Caroline Schill; Therese Lindahl; Björn Vollan; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Agent-based modelling; Behavioural experiments; Collective action; Common-pool resources; Cooperation; Ecological complexity; Knowledge sharing; Regime shifts; Social-ecological systems; Sustainable management; Thresholds; Uncertainty; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : Collective action holds the key to many sustainability challenges, from local to global scales. Whether it is to manage community-based fisheries or take action against climate change or biodiversity loss – the question on how to overcome the conflict between individual and collective interests (i.e. READ MORE

  6. 14. Transition to a low-carbon electricity system — investment decisions under heterogeneity, uncertainty and financial feedback

    Author : Jinxi Yang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; investment financing; electricity system transition; agent-based modelling; investment decisions;

    Abstract : A transition to a low-carbon electricity system will require a substantial increase in the investment rate in low-carbon technologies. This calls for a better understanding of investment decisions and their impact on the pace of the transition. READ MORE

  7. 15. Attraction Based Models of Collective Motion

    Author : Daniel Strömbom; David J. T. Sumpter; Andreas Deutsch; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; flocking; swarming; self-propelled particles; alignment-free models; agent-based modelling; leaf-cutting ant traffic; sheep-sheepdog system; the Shepherding problem; Mathematics with specialization in Applied Mathematics; Matematik med inriktning mot tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : Animal groups often exhibit highly coordinated collective motion in a variety of situations. For example, bird flocks, schools of fish, a flock of sheep being herded by a dog and highly efficient traffic on an ant trail. READ MORE
