2. 1. Green-Blue Water Potential: : Building water resilience to attain the SDGs on food and poverty in Africa

   Author : Maganizo Kruger Nyasulu; Ingo Fetzer; Stefan Liersch; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; agriculture; green-blue water resilience; sustainable development goals; climate change; land use change; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling; Sustainability Science;

   Abstract : Attaining the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of eradicating hunger and securing sustainable food for all by 2030, constitutes a major global challenge, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Here, malnourishment, poverty, and population growth are among the highest in the world, and some regions are constantly subject to extreme water variability and scarcity. READ MORE

4. 2. Unveiling the nature of blue compact galaxies

   Author : Genoveva Micheva; Göran Östlin; Evan Skillman; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; blue compact galaxies; starbursts; host galaxy; stellar populations; surface photometry; optical and NIR broadband; Astronomy; astronomi;

   Abstract : Blue compact galaxies (BCGs) are gas-rich star-forming low redshift galaxies with low metallicities. In some cases the relative strength of the starburst can be so high that it completely dominates the light output of the galaxy, an obstacle which has been countered by deeper optical imaging data and observations in the near infra-red (NIR) regime.

5. 3. Making space for resilient urban well-being

   Author : Karl Samuelsson; Stephan Barthel; S. Anders Brandt; Dagmar Haase; Högskolan i Gävle; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; subjective well-being; affordances; social-ecological urbanism; urban resilience; geographic information system; depression; densification; complex adaptive system; spatial planning; green-blue infrastructure; subjektivt välbefinnande; affordance; social-ekologisk stadsbyggnad; urban resiliens; geografiska informationssystem; depression; förtätning; komplexa adaptiva system; grön infrastruktur; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

   Abstract : This thesis addresses the need for urban landscapes that provide resilient contributions to inhabitants’ well-being while also limiting impacts on the Earth system. It aims to (1) advance a nuanced understanding of how urban environments relate to urban dwellers’ well-being, and (2) formulate guidelines for planning that supports urban dwellers’ well-being and align with global sustainability.

6. 4. CARESCAPE OF BLUE-GREEN SOLUTIONS IN EVERYDAY LIFE : Exploring the socio-materiality of a landscape technology

   Author : Misagh Mottaghi; miljö boende Stad; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; affordance; blue-green solutions; everyday life; human-nonhuman; matters of care; multifunctionality; nature-based solutions; neighborhood; rhythm; urban design; urban open space; temporality; socio-ecological urbanism; STS; water;

   Abstract : This research explores how blue-green solutions (BGS) take part in various everyday situations in the Augustenborg neighborhood of Malmö, Sweden, where BGS were introduced over twenty years ago to control urban flooding. The research applies a relational perspective, looking at everyday life as something that is contextually formed and given meaning in relation to the socio-materiality of the environment. READ MORE

7. 5. Super Star Clusters in Blue Compact Galaxies : Evidence for a near-infrared flux excess and properties of the starburst phase

   Author : Angela Adamo; Göran Östlin; Erik Zackrisson; Richard de Grjis; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; starburst galaxy-extragalactic star clusters-dwarf merger; Astronomy and astrophysics; Astronomi och astrofysik; Astronomy; astronomi;

   Abstract : Luminous Blue compact galaxies (BCGs) are metal-poor actively star-forming systems, characterised by bright ultraviolet and blue luminosities. Hubble Space Telescope high-resolution data have revealed that the luminous star-forming knots in these galaxies are composed of hundreds of young massive star clusters. READ MORE
