AMMONIA: Climate and environmental impacts of green ammonia (NH3)

Fulfilling the goals of the 2015 Paris Agreement on limiting climate change, requires strong and rapid reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Policymakers and industries point to a transition from fossil fuels to hydrogen and hydrogen-based energy carriers as part of the solution. Zero-carbon am...

Stipendiatstilling 1 CICERO (2021-2023)

Project objective This PhD project aims to improve the understanding of the role of large-scale warming on near-surface meteorology in Norway, Sweden, and Finland (Nordic Fennoscandia). It investigates land-atmosphere interactions with a focus on the recent opposing hydroclimatic extremes – the d...

GREenhouse gases, Aerosols and lower atmospheric Turbulence

How do gases and particles affect turbulence in the lower atmosphere? It is a well-established fact that an increase in atmospheric concentrations of CO2 and other greenhouse gases leads to higher surface temperatures on Earth. However, increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases, and particle...

HYdropower and PREcipitation trends -Investigating historical and future precipitation trends in regions important for hydropower production

Impacts of climate change are becoming more evident, and the need for knowledge about future climate change is growing. An important aspect of anthropogenic climate change is changes in the global and local precipitation patterns and amounts, which have widespread consequences for society. There ...

Halocarbon metric workshop: Looking towards the next IPCC Assessment Report

Halocarbon gases present in the atmosphere (chlorofluorocarbons - CFCs and their replacements) are normally associated with stratospheric ozone depletion, yet they are strong greenhouse gases that have substantial impacts on radiative forcing of climate c hange. Their impact on climate varies con...

Halocarbon metric workshop: Scientific updates and reduction of uncertainties

While some of the halocarbon gases present in the atmosphere (e.g., chlorofluorocarbons - CFCs) lead to depletion of stratospheric ozone, many of them are strong greenhouse gases that have substantial impacts on radiative forcing of climate change. Their impact on climate varies considerably, de...
