2 Physical Geography/Climatology GVN330 Climate data analyses 7,5 hec Basic Autumn Are winters in Sweden really getting colder? Did global warming really stop in the year 2000? These types of questions may be answered with the right skills and knowledge! The course teaches the ability to use fundamental data analysis techniques to answer questions about climate data, and how to present the results in a convincing way with the right scientific graph. The skills can be applied in a Bachelor Thesis, and beyond that in a Masters project or to conduct climate risk assessments or climate change impact assessments in the real world. The course is divided into 3 sub-courses. The course contains compulsory lectures, computer-based tutorial classes, reading assignments and individual assignments. For course entrance you need 120 hec in any of the main fields within sciences of which 75% of the courses must at least have the grade Pass, plus high school Mathematics B and English B or the equivalent. Students with equivalent education can be admitted to the course. NG0210 Field course in the Subarctic Physical geography and ecology 15 hec Basic Autumn Mechanisms that govern the natural climate variations in subarctic, including influences from marine and atmospheric circulation and the impact of the ongoing climate change on the region. Interpretation of the sub-arctic landscape changes through the study of geomorphological and ecological processes. How to varying climatic indicators (such as tree rings and peat deposits) can reconstruct climate variations in der past. For course entrance you need 60 credits either in the Earth sciences, geography, environmental science or biology or equivalent NG0230 Climate change a geographical perspective 15 hec autumn The course deals with effects of climate change on man and environment in different regions from the Arctic to the tropics.

A number of specific questions such as spreading of deserts, sea acidification, human migration and long range transport of pollution, urbanization and society will be discussed. For course entrance you need 60 credits either in the Earth sciences, geography, environmental science or biology or equivalent. Applicants from countries outside the Nordic countries or from non-english -speaking university must exhibit proficiency in English through TOEFL test or IELTS tests.

3 NG0220 Climate change and society 15 hec basic Spring The course consists of three modules including lectures, compulsory exercises and seminars, group work both reported as seminars and in writing as well as an excursion. Module 1: Theory. The course will give the student the knowledge of the historical, current and future status of climate change and its impact on society. This part also contains basic knowledge of climate reconstructions and climate modeling. Special focus is on how society uses climate scenarios to plan for adaptation to a changing climate. The link between land use and climate, as well as the processes that cause land use change in developing countries. Module 2: Excursion to China. Students will for about 2 weeks work with various issues related to the from a foreign perspective. Specifically, the focus is on the link between land use and climate, as well as the processes that cause land use change in developing countries. Module 3: Group work. Group work is based on two "case studies" of how a city or region is planning for a changing climate, where the information collected during the course units 1 and 2 are processed and presented orally and in writing. For course entrance you need 60 credits either in the Earth sciences, geography, environmental science, biology or equivalent.
