  2. 11. Schooling Emotional Intelligence Through Narrative and Dialogue. Implications for the education of children and adolescents

    Author : Martina Campart; Utbildningsvetenskap; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Arbetspsykologi; Industrial psychology; epistemic analysis; narrative modes of knowing; narrative modes of thought; modes of learning; conversation; applied psychoanalysis; Emotions; emotional intelligence; industripsykologi; Pedagogy and didactics; Pedagogik; didaktik;

    Abstract : Abstract The point of departure for this study is the author's experience as educator in a residential home for children (age 6-14) with social-emotional problems, in Italy, between 1980 and 1989. One important element of the pedagogical approach was the use of narratives (personal, of others, of fiction) to prompt children's interest/ motivation to reflect about issues of personal concern.

  4. 12. Bending the Curve – the Role and Interplay of Municipal Energy Planning and Municipal Spatial Planning for Climate Change Mitigation in Sweden

    Author : Vincent Wretling; Berit Balfors; Ulrika Gunnarsson-Östling; Christina Hörnberg; Catalina Turcu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; local energy and climate planning; municipal comprehensive planning; wind power planning; climate policy integration; Strategic Environmental Assessment; institutional capacity building; Land and Water Resources Engineering; Mark- och vattenteknik;

    Abstract : The global climate is changing rapidly, which pronounces the need for imminently bending the curve of greenhouse gases emissions. The local authorities have been recognised as key actors in this decarbonisation, due to their wide-ranging responsibilities, including different mandates for local planning. READ MORE

  5. 13. On the road to climate neutral Swedish transportation: Energy system modelling to support the transition at national, regional, and local levels

    Author : Jonas Forsberg; Anna Krook-Riekkola; Andrea Toffolo; Åsa Lindman; Hannah E. Daly; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy transition; Energy system modelling; TIMES-City; TIMES-Sweden; Transportation; Decarbonisation; Climate mitigation; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

    Abstract : Transportation is a critical pillar of modern society. Over the past decades, growth in mobility of people and goods have been both enabled by and dependent upon fossil fuels. Strong action is needed to break this dependence in order to reduce CO2. READ MORE

  6. 14. Transport systems meeting long-term climate targets : A backcasting approach

    Author : Jonas Åkerman; Mattias Höjer; Glenn Lyons; KTH; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Other social sciences; Övrig samhällsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Future transport systems consistent with long-term climate targets are examined in this thesis, using a systems perspective covering the entire transport system. Aviation is given particular attention, as expansion of this mode is difficult to reconcile with climate targets. READ MORE

  7. 15. Improved Cloud Parameterization in Global Climate Model : Aerosol effects and secondary ice production mechanisms

    Author : Arti Jadav; MERGE: ModElling the Regional and Global Earth system; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cloud; Coud parameterization; Primary ice mechanisms; Secondary ice production; Global climate model;

    Abstract : The response of clouds to the changes in climate is uncertain, and the representation of the cloud-climate feedback is a key challenge in the global circulation models (GCM) for future climate projections. Factors contributing to this uncertainty include processes that involve particles of various sizes and phases, as well as the interactions between these particles and the surrounding atmosphere.
