    Authors: Schaumann, Michaela;

    In 2008 the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and its experiments started operation at the European Centre of Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva with the main aim of finding or excluding the Higgs boson. Only four years later, on the 4th of July 2012, the discovery of a Higgs-like particle was proven and first published by the two main experiments ATLAS and CMS. Even though proton–proton collisions are the main operation mode of the LHC, it also acts as an heavy-ion collider. Here, the term “heavy-ion collisions” refers to the collision between fully stripped nuclei. While the major hardware system of the LHC is compatible with heavy-ion operation, the beam dynamics and performance limits of ion beams are quite different from those of protons. Because of the higher mass and charge of the ions, beam dynamic effects like intra-beam scattering and radiation damping are stronger. Also the electromagnetic cross-sections in the collisions are larger, leading to significantly faster intensity decay and thus shorter luminosity lifetimes. As the production cross-sections for various physics processes under study of the experiments are still small at energies reachable with the LHC and because the heavy-ion run time is limited to a few days per year, it is essential to obtain the highest possible collision rate, i.e. maximise the instantaneous luminosity, in order to obtain enough events and therefore low statistical errors. Within this thesis, the past performance of the LHC in lead-lead (Pb-Pb) collisions, at a centre-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV per colliding nucleon pair, is analysed and potential luminosity limitations are identified. Tools are developed to predict future performance and techniques are presented to further increase the luminosity. Finally, a perspective on the future of high energy heavy-ion colliders is given.

    Authors: Bleuel, Sebastian;

    Der Klimawandel ist eine globale Herausforderung, wobei die geschätzten Kosten für seine Eindämmung zwischen 1,6 und 3,8 Billionen USD pro Jahr liegen. Als Pionier im Bereich des Klimaschutzes verfügt die Europäische Union über das weltweit umfangreichste Emissionshandelssystem (87 % des globalen Wertes von 865 Mrd. USD im Jahr 2022). Die kumulative Dissertation ist in drei Artikel unterteilt und beschäftigt sich mit der Rolle von forstwirtschaftlichen Kohlenstoffgutschriften sowohl auf den Verpflichtungsmärkten als auch auf den freiwilligen Kohlenstoffmärkten. Dabei werden Potenziale für forstwirtschaftliche Investitionen in diesen beiden Märkten untersucht. Im ersten Artikel wird ein Überblick über die Klimastrategie der Europäischen Union gegeben, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf der Entwicklung des EU-Emissionshandelssystems (EU ETS) und der Rolle von Waldkohlenstoffzertifikaten für Kompensationszwecke sowohl in der Europäischen Union als auch international liegt. Wir argumentieren, dass die Europäische Union weiterhin ein beträchtliches Potenzial der Wälder - insbesondere der tropischen Wälder - als natürliche Kohlenstoffsenken ungenutzt lässt. Im Gegensatz dazu zeigen wir auf, dass die Regulierungsbehörden aus den Erfahrungen und Verbesserungen der Vergangenheit, den Sustainable Carbon Cylces der Europäischen Union und der Fertigstellung und Entwicklung des Regelwerks für Artikel 6 des Pariser Abkommens lernen können. Wir unterbreiten einen Vorschlag zur Änderung der EU-ETS-Verordnung, indem wir die kürzlich im Trilog vereinbarte Gesetzgebung der Europäischen Kommission zur Erhöhung des linearen Reduktionsfaktors von 2,2 % auf 4,2 % auf die Anrechenbarkeit von Waldkohlenstoffgutschriften übertragen, was zu einem zusätzlichen Finanzierungspotenzial für Forstprojekte zur Erhöhung der notwendigen Kohlenstoffsenken führt. Gleichzeitig wird durch die Möglichkeit, in begrenztem Umfang in Neutralisierungsprojekte zu investieren, das Risiko gemindert, dass regulierte Unternehmen bei der Erreichung der Emissionsreduktionsziele überfordert werden. Das Überdenken des Status quo erfordert nicht nur eine Stärkung der Robustheit von Kohlenstoffprojekten, sondern kann auch den Widerstand von politischen Entscheidungsträgern und NGOs überwinden. Emissionsgutschriften aus Wäldern sind in den meisten Emissionshandelssystemen von Bedeutung, da sie ein kosteneffizientes Mittel zum Ausgleich von schwer zu kompensierenden Emissionen darstellen. Bislang war dies im Emissionshandelssystem der Europäischen Union (EU ETS) nicht der Fall. Da das Regelwerk des Pariser Abkommens nun fertiggestellt ist, könnte sich jedoch die Gelegenheit bieten, diesen Flexibilitätsmechanismus in der europäischen Klimapolitik wiederzubeleben. Auf der Grundlage von 24 Experteninterviews untersuchten wir im zweiten Artikel das forstwirtschaftliche Potenzial innerhalb des EU-Emissionshandelssystems über kurz-, mittel- und langfristige Zeiträume. Wir kamen zu dem Ergebnis, dass das Erfüllungssystem bis 2030 blockiert bleiben wird, dass aber langfristig ein Übergang zur Einbeziehung von forstbasierten Entnahmen und Reduktionen wahrscheinlicher ist. Obwohl forstwirtschaftliche Projekte in der EU auf große Zurückhaltung stoßen, herrscht Einigkeit darüber, wie wichtig sowohl technologische Lösungen als auch solche Initiativen für den Klimaschutz sind. Um das Potenzial der Forstwirtschaft in Zukunft voll auszuschöpfen, müssen andere Methoden und Instrumente (z. B. Haftungsregelungen), strengere Rechtsvorschriften für sozioökonomische Faktoren (z. B. Landnutzungsrechte), die Überwindung von Umsetzungshürden (z. B. keine Kompromisse bei der Abschreckung durch Abschwächung) und eine offene politische Haltung eingeführt werden. Diese Studie bietet eine umfassende Perspektive auf die Hindernisse und Potenziale von Forstprojekten im Rahmen des Compliance-Systems der EU, die bei der Wiederaufnahme der Diskussion über die künftige Förderfähigkeit unbedingt berücksichtigt werden muss. Die Ergebnisse der Studie legen nahe, die Hindernisse für die Bereitstellung von Emissionsgutschriften in der nächsten Phase des EU-Emissionshandelssystems ab 2030 unverzüglich zu beseitigen. Der freiwillige Kohlenstoffmarkt (Voluntary Carbon Market, VCM) hat in den letzten Jahren ein beispielloses Wachstum erlebt, das durch die Verpflichtungen der Unternehmen begünstigt wurde. Die künftige Entwicklung hängt jedoch von der Strategie des Pariser Abkommens ab, insbesondere von Artikel 6. Daher werden im dritten Artikel die verschiedenen vorgeschlagenen Mechanismen und ihre Auswirkungen auf den VCM analysiert. Von besonderer Bedeutung ist der Bedarf an entsprechenden Anpassungen (CA) und wie sich diese Anforderung auf den VCM auswirkt. Der "neue" Typ von Kohlenstoffgutschriften, der auf der CoP27 eingeführt wurde, nämlich die "Mitigation Contribution A6.4ERs", wird die Konsolidierung des VCM wahrscheinlich beschleunigen. Auf der Grundlage einer halbsystematischen Überprüfung und von Experteninterviews (N = 20) sprechen die derzeitigen kurzfristigen Aussichten (~2030) für ein weiteres Wachstum des VCM, trotz bestehender Unsicherheiten aufgrund der unvollständigen technischen Details des Rahmens. Darüber hinaus halten die meisten Experten den Artikel 6-Rahmen nach intensiven und gründlichen Verhandlungen für erfolgreich. Mittelfristig (~2030-2045) wird es wahrscheinlich zu einem Marktübergang kommen. Dementsprechend wird der VCM seine Nische finden und das gegenwärtig verwendete Ausgleichsinstrument neu bewerten müssen. Diese Neubewertung muss über eine reine Kohlenstoffperspektive hinausgehen und sich auf die Zusatznutzen konzentrieren, um die Legitimität des VCM zu erhalten. Langfristig (~2045) deuten die Ergebnisse auf einen Rückgang des VCM hin, da er möglicherweise mit Compliance-Märkten kombiniert wird. Die Infrastruktur und die Robustheit der Artikel-6-Regelwerke werden jedoch dazu beitragen, das volle Wachstumspotenzial des VCM zu gewährleisten. Climate change is a global challenge, with estimated mitigation costs ranging from USD1.6 to USD3.8 trillion per year. As a pioneer in climate action, the European Union has the most extensive emissions trading system worldwide (87% of the global value of USD865 billion in 2022). The cumulative PhD thesis is divided into three articles dealing with the role of forest carbon credits in both compliance and voluntary carbon markets as well as investigating further potentials for forest investments in both of these markets. In the first article, we review the European Union's climate strategy, emphasizing the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) development, and the role of forest carbon credits for offsetting purposes, both in the European Union but also internationally. We argue that the European Union continues to leave a significant potential of forests - in particular tropical forests - as natural carbon sinks unattended. In contrast, we reveal that the regulators can learn from the experiences and improvements made in the past, the European Union’s Sustainable Carbon Cylces and the finalization and development of the rulebook for Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. We present a proposal on changes to the EU ETS regulation by converting the European Commission's legislation, recently agreed in the trilogue, to increase the linear reduction factor from 2.2% to 4.2% to the eligibility of forest carbon credits, resulting in additional funding potential for forestry projects to increase necessary carbon sinks. Simultaneously, allowing flexibility of investing to a limited extent in neutralization projects mitigates the risk of overstressing regulated companies to reach the emission reduction targets. The re-thinking of the status quo will not only require strengthening the robustness of carbon projects, but may also overcome the resistance of policy makers and NGOs. Forest-based carbon credits are crucial in most Emissions Trading Schemes as they offer a cost-efficient means of offsetting hard-to-abate emissions. To date, this has not been the case in the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS). However with the Paris Agreement rulebook now finalized, there could be an opportunity to revive this flexibility mechanism in European climate policy. Based on 24 expert interviews, we examined in the second article the forest potential within the EU ETS across short, medium, and long-term time frames. We found that the compliance system will remain blocked until 2030, but there is a greater likelihood of transitioning towards the inclusion of forest-based removals and reductions in the long term. Although forestry projects have faced significant reluctance in the EU, there is unanimous agreement on the importance of both technological solutions and such initiatives for climate protection. To fully leverage the potential of forest activity in the future, it will be necessary to adopt different methods and tools (e.g., liability regimes), stricter legislation on socio-economic factors (e.g., land use rights), overcoming implementation hurdles (e.g., do not compromise deterrence through mitigation), and maintaining an open political stance. This study provides a comprehensive perspective on the barriers and potentials of forestry projects within the compliance system of the EU which is essential to be addressed when re-opening the discussion on future eligibility. The implication of the findings suggest an immediate start to adopt to the barriers for carbon credit readiness in the next phase of the EU ETS beginning of 2030. The voluntary carbon market (VCM) has seen unprecedented growth over the past years, facilitated by corporate commitments. However, future development depends on the Paris Agreement strategy, in particular, Article 6. Therefore, the third article analyzes the various mechanisms suggested and their implications on the VCM. Of particular importance is the need for corresponding adjustments (CA) and how this requirement spills over to the VCM. The “new” type of carbon credits introduced during CoP27, that is, the “mitigation contribution A6.4ERs” will likely accelerate the consolidation of the VCM. Based on a semi-systematic review and expert interviews (N = 20), the current short-term (~2030) prospects support further growth of the VCM despite existing uncertainties caused by the incomplete technical details of the framework. Moreover, after intense and thorough negotiation, most experts deemed the Article 6 framework successful. In the mid-term (~2030-2045), a market transition will likely occur. Accordingly, the VCM will need to find its niche and reassess the current compensation tool used. This reassessment must go beyond a mere carbon perspective and focus on co-benefits to prolong the legitimacy of the VCM. Long-term (~2045) results indicate a decline in the VCM as it potentially combines with compliance markets. However, the infrastructure and robustness of Article 6 rulesets will help to ensure the full growth potential of the VCM.

    Authors: Bleuel, Sebastian;

    Der Klimawandel ist eine globale Herausforderung, wobei die geschätzten Kosten für seine Eindämmung zwischen 1,6 und 3,8 Billionen USD pro Jahr liegen. Als Pionier im Bereich des Klimaschutzes verfügt die Europäische Union über das weltweit umfangreichste Emissionshandelssystem (87 % des globalen Wertes von 865 Mrd. USD im Jahr 2022). Die kumulative Dissertation ist in drei Artikel unterteilt und beschäftigt sich mit der Rolle von forstwirtschaftlichen Kohlenstoffgutschriften sowohl auf den Verpflichtungsmärkten als auch auf den freiwilligen Kohlenstoffmärkten. Dabei werden Potenziale für forstwirtschaftliche Investitionen in diesen beiden Märkten untersucht. Im ersten Artikel wird ein Überblick über die Klimastrategie der Europäischen Union gegeben, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf der Entwicklung des EU-Emissionshandelssystems (EU ETS) und der Rolle von Waldkohlenstoffzertifikaten für Kompensationszwecke sowohl in der Europäischen Union als auch international liegt. Wir argumentieren, dass die Europäische Union weiterhin ein beträchtliches Potenzial der Wälder - insbesondere der tropischen Wälder - als natürliche Kohlenstoffsenken ungenutzt lässt. Im Gegensatz dazu zeigen wir auf, dass die Regulierungsbehörden aus den Erfahrungen und Verbesserungen der Vergangenheit, den Sustainable Carbon Cylces der Europäischen Union und der Fertigstellung und Entwicklung des Regelwerks für Artikel 6 des Pariser Abkommens lernen können. Wir unterbreiten einen Vorschlag zur Änderung der EU-ETS-Verordnung, indem wir die kürzlich im Trilog vereinbarte Gesetzgebung der Europäischen Kommission zur Erhöhung des linearen Reduktionsfaktors von 2,2 % auf 4,2 % auf die Anrechenbarkeit von Waldkohlenstoffgutschriften übertragen, was zu einem zusätzlichen Finanzierungspotenzial für Forstprojekte zur Erhöhung der notwendigen Kohlenstoffsenken führt. Gleichzeitig wird durch die Möglichkeit, in begrenztem Umfang in Neutralisierungsprojekte zu investieren, das Risiko gemindert, dass regulierte Unternehmen bei der Erreichung der Emissionsreduktionsziele überfordert werden. Das Überdenken des Status quo erfordert nicht nur eine Stärkung der Robustheit von Kohlenstoffprojekten, sondern kann auch den Widerstand von politischen Entscheidungsträgern und NGOs überwinden. Emissionsgutschriften aus Wäldern sind in den meisten Emissionshandelssystemen von Bedeutung, da sie ein kosteneffizientes Mittel zum Ausgleich von schwer zu kompensierenden Emissionen darstellen. Bislang war dies im Emissionshandelssystem der Europäischen Union (EU ETS) nicht der Fall. Da das Regelwerk des Pariser Abkommens nun fertiggestellt ist, könnte sich jedoch die Gelegenheit bieten, diesen Flexibilitätsmechanismus in der europäischen Klimapolitik wiederzubeleben. Auf der Grundlage von 24 Experteninterviews untersuchten wir im zweiten Artikel das forstwirtschaftliche Potenzial innerhalb des EU-Emissionshandelssystems über kurz-, mittel- und langfristige Zeiträume. Wir kamen zu dem Ergebnis, dass das Erfüllungssystem bis 2030 blockiert bleiben wird, dass aber langfristig ein Übergang zur Einbeziehung von forstbasierten Entnahmen und Reduktionen wahrscheinlicher ist. Obwohl forstwirtschaftliche Projekte in der EU auf große Zurückhaltung stoßen, herrscht Einigkeit darüber, wie wichtig sowohl technologische Lösungen als auch solche Initiativen für den Klimaschutz sind. Um das Potenzial der Forstwirtschaft in Zukunft voll auszuschöpfen, müssen andere Methoden und Instrumente (z. B. Haftungsregelungen), strengere Rechtsvorschriften für sozioökonomische Faktoren (z. B. Landnutzungsrechte), die Überwindung von Umsetzungshürden (z. B. keine Kompromisse bei der Abschreckung durch Abschwächung) und eine offene politische Haltung eingeführt werden. Diese Studie bietet eine umfassende Perspektive auf die Hindernisse und Potenziale von Forstprojekten im Rahmen des Compliance-Systems der EU, die bei der Wiederaufnahme der Diskussion über die künftige Förderfähigkeit unbedingt berücksichtigt werden muss. Die Ergebnisse der Studie legen nahe, die Hindernisse für die Bereitstellung von Emissionsgutschriften in der nächsten Phase des EU-Emissionshandelssystems ab 2030 unverzüglich zu beseitigen. Der freiwillige Kohlenstoffmarkt (Voluntary Carbon Market, VCM) hat in den letzten Jahren ein beispielloses Wachstum erlebt, das durch die Verpflichtungen der Unternehmen begünstigt wurde. Die künftige Entwicklung hängt jedoch von der Strategie des Pariser Abkommens ab, insbesondere von Artikel 6. Daher werden im dritten Artikel die verschiedenen vorgeschlagenen Mechanismen und ihre Auswirkungen auf den VCM analysiert. Von besonderer Bedeutung ist der Bedarf an entsprechenden Anpassungen (CA) und wie sich diese Anforderung auf den VCM auswirkt. Der "neue" Typ von Kohlenstoffgutschriften, der auf der CoP27 eingeführt wurde, nämlich die "Mitigation Contribution A6.4ERs", wird die Konsolidierung des VCM wahrscheinlich beschleunigen. Auf der Grundlage einer halbsystematischen Überprüfung und von Experteninterviews (N = 20) sprechen die derzeitigen kurzfristigen Aussichten (~2030) für ein weiteres Wachstum des VCM, trotz bestehender Unsicherheiten aufgrund der unvollständigen technischen Details des Rahmens. Darüber hinaus halten die meisten Experten den Artikel 6-Rahmen nach intensiven und gründlichen Verhandlungen für erfolgreich. Mittelfristig (~2030-2045) wird es wahrscheinlich zu einem Marktübergang kommen. Dementsprechend wird der VCM seine Nische finden und das gegenwärtig verwendete Ausgleichsinstrument neu bewerten müssen. Diese Neubewertung muss über eine reine Kohlenstoffperspektive hinausgehen und sich auf die Zusatznutzen konzentrieren, um die Legitimität des VCM zu erhalten. Langfristig (~2045) deuten die Ergebnisse auf einen Rückgang des VCM hin, da er möglicherweise mit Compliance-Märkten kombiniert wird. Die Infrastruktur und die Robustheit der Artikel-6-Regelwerke werden jedoch dazu beitragen, das volle Wachstumspotenzial des VCM zu gewährleisten. Climate change is a global challenge, with estimated mitigation costs ranging from USD1.6 to USD3.8 trillion per year. As a pioneer in climate action, the European Union has the most extensive emissions trading system worldwide (87% of the global value of USD865 billion in 2022). The cumulative PhD thesis is divided into three articles dealing with the role of forest carbon credits in both compliance and voluntary carbon markets as well as investigating further potentials for forest investments in both of these markets. In the first article, we review the European Union's climate strategy, emphasizing the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) development, and the role of forest carbon credits for offsetting purposes, both in the European Union but also internationally. We argue that the European Union continues to leave a significant potential of forests - in particular tropical forests - as natural carbon sinks unattended. In contrast, we reveal that the regulators can learn from the experiences and improvements made in the past, the European Union’s Sustainable Carbon Cylces and the finalization and development of the rulebook for Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. We present a proposal on changes to the EU ETS regulation by converting the European Commission's legislation, recently agreed in the trilogue, to increase the linear reduction factor from 2.2% to 4.2% to the eligibility of forest carbon credits, resulting in additional funding potential for forestry projects to increase necessary carbon sinks. Simultaneously, allowing flexibility of investing to a limited extent in neutralization projects mitigates the risk of overstressing regulated companies to reach the emission reduction targets. The re-thinking of the status quo will not only require strengthening the robustness of carbon projects, but may also overcome the resistance of policy makers and NGOs. Forest-based carbon credits are crucial in most Emissions Trading Schemes as they offer a cost-efficient means of offsetting hard-to-abate emissions. To date, this has not been the case in the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS). However with the Paris Agreement rulebook now finalized, there could be an opportunity to revive this flexibility mechanism in European climate policy. Based on 24 expert interviews, we examined in the second article the forest potential within the EU ETS across short, medium, and long-term time frames. We found that the compliance system will remain blocked until 2030, but there is a greater likelihood of transitioning towards the inclusion of forest-based removals and reductions in the long term. Although forestry projects have faced significant reluctance in the EU, there is unanimous agreement on the importance of both technological solutions and such initiatives for climate protection. To fully leverage the potential of forest activity in the future, it will be necessary to adopt different methods and tools (e.g., liability regimes), stricter legislation on socio-economic factors (e.g., land use rights), overcoming implementation hurdles (e.g., do not compromise deterrence through mitigation), and maintaining an open political stance. This study provides a comprehensive perspective on the barriers and potentials of forestry projects within the compliance system of the EU which is essential to be addressed when re-opening the discussion on future eligibility. The implication of the findings suggest an immediate start to adopt to the barriers for carbon credit readiness in the next phase of the EU ETS beginning of 2030. The voluntary carbon market (VCM) has seen unprecedented growth over the past years, facilitated by corporate commitments. However, future development depends on the Paris Agreement strategy, in particular, Article 6. Therefore, the third article analyzes the various mechanisms suggested and their implications on the VCM. Of particular importance is the need for corresponding adjustments (CA) and how this requirement spills over to the VCM. The “new” type of carbon credits introduced during CoP27, that is, the “mitigation contribution A6.4ERs” will likely accelerate the consolidation of the VCM. Based on a semi-systematic review and expert interviews (N = 20), the current short-term (~2030) prospects support further growth of the VCM despite existing uncertainties caused by the incomplete technical details of the framework. Moreover, after intense and thorough negotiation, most experts deemed the Article 6 framework successful. In the mid-term (~2030-2045), a market transition will likely occur. Accordingly, the VCM will need to find its niche and reassess the current compensation tool used. This reassessment must go beyond a mere carbon perspective and focus on co-benefits to prolong the legitimacy of the VCM. Long-term (~2045) results indicate a decline in the VCM as it potentially combines with compliance markets. However, the infrastructure and robustness of Article 6 rulesets will help to ensure the full growth potential of the VCM.

    A fundamental change in societal values and economic structures is required to address increasing pressures on ecosystems and natural resources. Transition research has developed in the last decades to analyze the co-dynamics of technological, institutional, social and economic elements in the provision of key functions such as energy, water and food supply. This doctoral dissertation provides conceptual and methodological contributions to the pro-active governance of sustainability transitions. Three research gaps are identified that are addressed in this dissertation. First, a comprehensive conceptualization of learning in sustainability transitions is currently missing that comprises learning at multiple societal levels (ranging from individuals to policy-actors). Learning concepts are often not explicitly discussed in transition research even though learning is considered as fundamental for innovation processes, niche formation and development as well as breakthrough and diffusion of innovations. Second, methods for the analysis and design of transition governance processes are lacking that specify case-specific intervention points and roles of actors in the implementation of innovations. Third, participatory modeling approaches are only applied to a limited extent in transition research despite a high potential for supporting communication and learning. The conceptualization of multi-level learning developed in this doctoral research conceptualizes learning at different societal levels as specific learning contexts ranging from individual and group contexts to organizational and policy contexts. The conceptual framework further differentiates between learning processes, intensity, objects, outcomes, subjects and factors, allowing for a more detailed analysis of learning within and across learning contexts. Thus, learning contexts can be linked by processes that involve actors from different learning contexts (e.g., community groups and policy-makers), as well as exchanges of physical aspects, institutions ...

    The importance of wind energy has progressed rapidly in the last years. Although Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines (HAWT) are most well-spread, there is an increasing interest in Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWT), especially in the H-Darrieus concept, as these rotors are omni-directional and affordable. However, the physics of these rotors is more complex; they can only be analyzed using transient CFD simulations. Due to the finite aspect ratio of the rotors, a wingtip vortex is created, which generates losses. Optimizing the wingtip geometry could be advantageous for increasing the efficiency of the rotors: this can only be achieved with three-dimensional turbulent transient simulations. For the optimization of winglets, the whole process (mesh generation, CFD computation, post-processing) has to be automated. This is achieved using the OPtimization Algorithm Library++ (OPAL++), a custom C++ code for the description of blended and canted winglets, coupled with a CD-Adapco StarCCM+ JAVA script for the automatization of the mesh generation and CFD computations. To check the viability of the present concept, two parameters have been varied in the simulations. As shown in what follows, an efficient automatic optimization of wind turbine wingtips can be implemented in this manner.

    Authors: Barsoum, Mirna;

    Increasing agricultural productivity is one of the most important aims of modern biotechnology. One way to enhance the productivity of crop species is to enhance the efficiency of photosynthesis. In C3 plants the oxygenase activity of Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCo) limits the photosynthetic efficiency. The green microalgae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has evolved a CO2 concentration mechanism (CCM) by increasing the CO2 concentration in the chloroplast stroma where RuBisCO is located. Four independent transgenic tobacco genotypes (LA, LB, C1 and C3) were generated producing the low CO2-inducible protein A and B (LCIA and LCIB) or the carbonic anhydrases I and III (CAH1 and CAH3) from C. reinhardtii CCM in the envelope, stroma, intermembrane space or thylakoid lumen of tobacco chloroplasts, respectively. All four recombinant proteins were active in planta, which had a substantial impact on carbon and nitrogen metabolism. Increasing the CO2 concentration near RuBisCO resulted in an enhanced rate of photosynthesis (by up to 15%), efficiency of photosystem II (by up to 18%) and chlorophyll content (by up to 19%). Although to differing extents, all four transgenic genotypes grew faster than wild-type plants, produced more shoot biomass (up to 45% more fresh weight or 38% more dry weight in the LA lines) and accumulated more photosynthetic end products, reflecting the higher rate of photosynthetic CO2 fixation. The proteome analysis revealed that the proteins changed in the transgenic genotypes compared to the wild-type plants were primarily associated with the regulation of the Calvin cycle and the amino acid biosynthesis. Metabolic analysis of the transgenic LA, LB and C3 plants revealed an increase in the levels of carbohydrates and also of most amino acids. Furthermore, transgenic LA and LB plants could maintain the enhanced biomass under low nitrogen conditions, where similarly-treated wild-type plants grew more slowly. The data generated in the present study confirmed that even single Chlamydomonas CCM components can be integrated into C3 plants to increase biomass, suggesting that transgenic lines combining multiple components or even a complete CCM could further increase the productivity and yield of C3 crops.

    This Article examines the genesis and context of SE4All, placing the effort within both itshistorical and international policy contexts. It highlights the voluntary nature of the initiative andargues that its effective implementation and the achievement of its goals require the articulation ofan applicable international legal framework that aids the transformation of SE4All’s policy actionsinto binding international legal commitments. The article contends that such a transformation doesnot depend on the creation of entirely new legal rules or institutions. Instead, an effective frame-work for successful implementation of SE4All can be derived from existing rules of internationalhuman rights law and sustainable development law. Reliance on these twin bodies of interna-tional law will increase the prospects for SE4All to achieve energy access and related goals thatits predecessor initiatives have failed to accomplish

    This report sets out to analyse South Korea’s positioning in non-traditional security. Since the end of the Cold War, non-traditional threats have become more central to the national security of countries everywhere across the world. South Korea is no exception. However, most existing analyses of South Korea’s security tend to focus on traditional issues and great power politics, most notably North Korea’s military capabilities or Sino-American rivalry and the threat that each of them poses to South Korea. This report helps to address this imbalance in our understanding of threats to South Korean national security. The report analyses non-traditional security by focusing on four key domains: cyber, energy, maritime and trade.

    Authors: Königstein, Stefan;

    Marine ecosystems are known to be climatea dependent, and impacts from progressing global climate change are increasingly observed and anticipated to intensify in the course of the 21st century. Under continuously high anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, drivers such as ocean warming, ocean acidification, and deoxygenation will increasingly affect marine ecosystems and the provision of marine ecosystem services to human societies. Environmental drivers affect organismal processes directly, but also have indirect effects through biotic interactions. Human societies are dependent on the ecosystem services provided by the oceans, and have limited adaptive capacities to changes in ecosystem service provision. An integrated evaluation of marinea human systems is thus necessary to understand coming changes, and is increasingly pursued by recent ecosystema based and integrated assessment and management approaches. The uncertainty of future climate change impacts and the interactions with the increasing anthropogenic pressures on marine systems need to be addressed. Ecological models are important tools to provide this integration of data and processes, as they can put experimental and observational data into context, and enable us to move beyond simple extrapolations of future states and experiences, creating an understanding of the changes in marine ecosystems anticipated in the future. While a wide variety of modeling approaches is available to answer specific ecological questions, a quantitative integration over different hierarchical levels, and different types of data and knowledge, is rarely achieved. The presented thesis revolves around a case study from the Barents Sea, which is among the marine regions with the earliest impacts of ocean acidification and warming expected and already observed, providing an integrative view of the impacts of these drivers on marine ecosystems and the provision of ecosystem services in the focus region. The work was built upon a thorough general analysis of available modeling approaches for modeling climate change impacts on marine fish populations (Paper 1). This analysis assessed capacities of the existing modeling approaches and recent applications, and revealed processes which need to be incorporated better in the light of recent experimental and observational results. A modeling framework to address the specific questions in the Barents Sea region was developed based on participation of stakeholders gained during personal interviews and two workshops (Paper 2). This served to incorporate their concerns and knowledge into the model structure and identify potential adaptation options for the stakeholder groups. To address one specific scientific question of high importance and uncertainty, the anticipated impacts on fish stock recruitment, an early life stage model was developed which incorporates the experimentally quantified effects of ocean acidification and warming on Atlantic cod eggs and larvae (Paper 3). This model offers a new approach to integrating empirical data on environmental and food-web drivers into recruitment projections of marine fish. Finally, an integrative fooda web model based on the structure developed in the stakeholder work and on current processa based understanding was parameterized with empirical data and estimates of organismal rates, to simulate the dynamic fluctuations in the Barents Sea food web and explore potential shifts in composition and dynamics under ocean warming and ocean acidification (Paper 4). In the thesis discussion, the papers are summarized and put into context, and the implications for the user groups in the region and possible societal adaptation options to the projected changes are highlighted. Impacts on fisheries, cultural and recreational ecosystem services, associated adaptation options for stakeholder groups, and interactions with other uses of the ocean system and expected changes under climate change are delineated. To advance ecosystema based governance in the area, the limitations in adaptation options of some user groups point to the need to better consider these groups in decisions and regulations concerning fisheries and marine areas. The Barents Sea study thus exemplifies the possibilities to integrate experiments, observations and stakeholder input into integrative assessments of marine ecosystems under climate change. Based on the insights gained from processa based modelling and stakeholder participation, it is described how understanding and projections of climate change impacts on marinea human systems can be advanced, pointing out the importance of improved interdisciplinary cooperation and communication and an integrative perspective to link across scales and subsystems a tasks to which purposefully designed models can contribute substantially.

    Authors: Königstein, Stefan;

    Marine ecosystems are known to be climatea dependent, and impacts from progressing global climate change are increasingly observed and anticipated to intensify in the course of the 21st century. Under continuously high anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, drivers such as ocean warming, ocean acidification, and deoxygenation will increasingly affect marine ecosystems and the provision of marine ecosystem services to human societies. Environmental drivers affect organismal processes directly, but also have indirect effects through biotic interactions. Human societies are dependent on the ecosystem services provided by the oceans, and have limited adaptive capacities to changes in ecosystem service provision. An integrated evaluation of marinea human systems is thus necessary to understand coming changes, and is increasingly pursued by recent ecosystema based and integrated assessment and management approaches. The uncertainty of future climate change impacts and the interactions with the increasing anthropogenic pressures on marine systems need to be addressed. Ecological models are important tools to provide this integration of data and processes, as they can put experimental and observational data into context, and enable us to move beyond simple extrapolations of future states and experiences, creating an understanding of the changes in marine ecosystems anticipated in the future. While a wide variety of modeling approaches is available to answer specific ecological questions, a quantitative integration over different hierarchical levels, and different types of data and knowledge, is rarely achieved. The presented thesis revolves around a case study from the Barents Sea, which is among the marine regions with the earliest impacts of ocean acidification and warming expected and already observed, providing an integrative view of the impacts of these drivers on marine ecosystems and the provision of ecosystem services in the focus region. The work was built upon a thorough general analysis of available modeling approaches for modeling climate change impacts on marine fish populations (Paper 1). This analysis assessed capacities of the existing modeling approaches and recent applications, and revealed processes which need to be incorporated better in the light of recent experimental and observational results. A modeling framework to address the specific questions in the Barents Sea region was developed based on participation of stakeholders gained during personal interviews and two workshops (Paper 2). This served to incorporate their concerns and knowledge into the model structure and identify potential adaptation options for the stakeholder groups. To address one specific scientific question of high importance and uncertainty, the anticipated impacts on fish stock recruitment, an early life stage model was developed which incorporates the experimentally quantified effects of ocean acidification and warming on Atlantic cod eggs and larvae (Paper 3). This model offers a new approach to integrating empirical data on environmental and food-web drivers into recruitment projections of marine fish. Finally, an integrative fooda web model based on the structure developed in the stakeholder work and on current processa based understanding was parameterized with empirical data and estimates of organismal rates, to simulate the dynamic fluctuations in the Barents Sea food web and explore potential shifts in composition and dynamics under ocean warming and ocean acidification (Paper 4). In the thesis discussion, the papers are summarized and put into context, and the implications for the user groups in the region and possible societal adaptation options to the projected changes are highlighted. Impacts on fisheries, cultural and recreational ecosystem services, associated adaptation options for stakeholder groups, and interactions with other uses of the ocean system and expected changes under climate change are delineated. To advance ecosystema based governance in the area, the limitations in adaptation options of some user groups point to the need to better consider these groups in decisions and regulations concerning fisheries and marine areas. The Barents Sea study thus exemplifies the possibilities to integrate experiments, observations and stakeholder input into integrative assessments of marine ecosystems under climate change. Based on the insights gained from processa based modelling and stakeholder participation, it is described how understanding and projections of climate change impacts on marinea human systems can be advanced, pointing out the importance of improved interdisciplinary cooperation and communication and an integrative perspective to link across scales and subsystems a tasks to which purposefully designed models can contribute substantially.

    Authors: Schaumann, Michaela;

    In 2008 the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and its experiments started operation at the European Centre of Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva with the main aim of finding or excluding the Higgs boson. Only four years later, on the 4th of July 2012, the discovery of a Higgs-like particle was proven and first published by the two main experiments ATLAS and CMS. Even though proton–proton collisions are the main operation mode of the LHC, it also acts as an heavy-ion collider. Here, the term “heavy-ion collisions” refers to the collision between fully stripped nuclei. While the major hardware system of the LHC is compatible with heavy-ion operation, the beam dynamics and performance limits of ion beams are quite different from those of protons. Because of the higher mass and charge of the ions, beam dynamic effects like intra-beam scattering and radiation damping are stronger. Also the electromagnetic cross-sections in the collisions are larger, leading to significantly faster intensity decay and thus shorter luminosity lifetimes. As the production cross-sections for various physics processes under study of the experiments are still small at energies reachable with the LHC and because the heavy-ion run time is limited to a few days per year, it is essential to obtain the highest possible collision rate, i.e. maximise the instantaneous luminosity, in order to obtain enough events and therefore low statistical errors. Within this thesis, the past performance of the LHC in lead-lead (Pb-Pb) collisions, at a centre-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV per colliding nucleon pair, is analysed and potential luminosity limitations are identified. Tools are developed to predict future performance and techniques are presented to further increase the luminosity. Finally, a perspective on the future of high energy heavy-ion colliders is given.

    Der Klimawandel ist eine globale Herausforderung, wobei die geschätzten Kosten für seine Eindämmung zwischen 1,6 und 3,8 Billionen USD pro Jahr liegen. Als Pionier im Bereich des Klimaschutzes verfügt die Europäische Union über das weltweit umfangreichste Emissionshandelssystem (87 % des globalen Wertes von 865 Mrd. USD im Jahr 2022). Die kumulative Dissertation ist in drei Artikel unterteilt und beschäftigt sich mit der Rolle von forstwirtschaftlichen Kohlenstoffgutschriften sowohl auf den Verpflichtungsmärkten als auch auf den freiwilligen Kohlenstoffmärkten. Dabei werden Potenziale für forstwirtschaftliche Investitionen in diesen beiden Märkten untersucht. Im ersten Artikel wird ein Überblick über die Klimastrategie der Europäischen Union gegeben, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf der Entwicklung des EU-Emissionshandelssystems (EU ETS) und der Rolle von Waldkohlenstoffzertifikaten für Kompensationszwecke sowohl in der Europäischen Union als auch international liegt. Wir argumentieren, dass die Europäische Union weiterhin ein beträchtliches Potenzial der Wälder - insbesondere der tropischen Wälder - als natürliche Kohlenstoffsenken ungenutzt lässt. Im Gegensatz dazu zeigen wir auf, dass die Regulierungsbehörden aus den Erfahrungen und Verbesserungen der Vergangenheit, den Sustainable Carbon Cylces der Europäischen Union und der Fertigstellung und Entwicklung des Regelwerks für Artikel 6 des Pariser Abkommens lernen können. Wir unterbreiten einen Vorschlag zur Änderung der EU-ETS-Verordnung, indem wir die kürzlich im Trilog vereinbarte Gesetzgebung der Europäischen Kommission zur Erhöhung des linearen Reduktionsfaktors von 2,2 % auf 4,2 % auf die Anrechenbarkeit von Waldkohlenstoffgutschriften übertragen, was zu einem zusätzlichen Finanzierungspotenzial für Forstprojekte zur Erhöhung der notwendigen Kohlenstoffsenken führt. Gleichzeitig wird durch die Möglichkeit, in begrenztem Umfang in Neutralisierungsprojekte zu investieren, das Risiko gemindert, dass regulierte Unternehmen bei der Erreichung der Emissionsreduktionsziele überfordert werden. Das Überdenken des Status quo erfordert nicht nur eine Stärkung der Robustheit von Kohlenstoffprojekten, sondern kann auch den Widerstand von politischen Entscheidungsträgern und NGOs überwinden. Emissionsgutschriften aus Wäldern sind in den meisten Emissionshandelssystemen von Bedeutung, da sie ein kosteneffizientes Mittel zum Ausgleich von schwer zu kompensierenden Emissionen darstellen. Bislang war dies im Emissionshandelssystem der Europäischen Union (EU ETS) nicht der Fall. Da das Regelwerk des Pariser Abkommens nun fertiggestellt ist, könnte sich jedoch die Gelegenheit bieten, diesen Flexibilitätsmechanismus in der europäischen Klimapolitik wiederzubeleben. Auf der Grundlage von 24 Experteninterviews untersuchten wir im zweiten Artikel das forstwirtschaftliche Potenzial innerhalb des EU-Emissionshandelssystems über kurz-, mittel- und langfristige Zeiträume. Wir kamen zu dem Ergebnis, dass das Erfüllungssystem bis 2030 blockiert bleiben wird, dass aber langfristig ein Übergang zur Einbeziehung von forstbasierten Entnahmen und Reduktionen wahrscheinlicher ist. Obwohl forstwirtschaftliche Projekte in der EU auf große Zurückhaltung stoßen, herrscht Einigkeit darüber, wie wichtig sowohl technologische Lösungen als auch solche Initiativen für den Klimaschutz sind. Um das Potenzial der Forstwirtschaft in Zukunft voll auszuschöpfen, müssen andere Methoden und Instrumente (z. B. Haftungsregelungen), strengere Rechtsvorschriften für sozioökonomische Faktoren (z. B. Landnutzungsrechte), die Überwindung von Umsetzungshürden (z. B. keine Kompromisse bei der Abschreckung durch Abschwächung) und eine offene politische Haltung eingeführt werden. Diese Studie bietet eine umfassende Perspektive auf die Hindernisse und Potenziale von Forstprojekten im Rahmen des Compliance-Systems der EU, die bei der Wiederaufnahme der Diskussion über die künftige Förderfähigkeit unbedingt berücksichtigt werden muss. Die Ergebnisse der Studie legen nahe, die Hindernisse für die Bereitstellung von Emissionsgutschriften in der nächsten Phase des EU-Emissionshandelssystems ab 2030 unverzüglich zu beseitigen. Der freiwillige Kohlenstoffmarkt (Voluntary Carbon Market, VCM) hat in den letzten Jahren ein beispielloses Wachstum erlebt, das durch die Verpflichtungen der Unternehmen begünstigt wurde. Die künftige Entwicklung hängt jedoch von der Strategie des Pariser Abkommens ab, insbesondere von Artikel 6. Daher werden im dritten Artikel die verschiedenen vorgeschlagenen Mechanismen und ihre Auswirkungen auf den VCM analysiert. Von besonderer Bedeutung ist der Bedarf an entsprechenden Anpassungen (CA) und wie sich diese Anforderung auf den VCM auswirkt. Der "neue" Typ von Kohlenstoffgutschriften, der auf der CoP27 eingeführt wurde, nämlich die "Mitigation Contribution A6.4ERs", wird die Konsolidierung des VCM wahrscheinlich beschleunigen. Auf der Grundlage einer halbsystematischen Überprüfung und von Experteninterviews (N = 20) sprechen die derzeitigen kurzfristigen Aussichten (~2030) für ein weiteres Wachstum des VCM, trotz bestehender Unsicherheiten aufgrund der unvollständigen technischen Details des Rahmens. Darüber hinaus halten die meisten Experten den Artikel 6-Rahmen nach intensiven und gründlichen Verhandlungen für erfolgreich. Mittelfristig (~2030-2045) wird es wahrscheinlich zu einem Marktübergang kommen. Dementsprechend wird der VCM seine Nische finden und das gegenwärtig verwendete Ausgleichsinstrument neu bewerten müssen. Diese Neubewertung muss über eine reine Kohlenstoffperspektive hinausgehen und sich auf die Zusatznutzen konzentrieren, um die Legitimität des VCM zu erhalten. Langfristig (~2045) deuten die Ergebnisse auf einen Rückgang des VCM hin, da er möglicherweise mit Compliance-Märkten kombiniert wird. Die Infrastruktur und die Robustheit der Artikel-6-Regelwerke werden jedoch dazu beitragen, das volle Wachstumspotenzial des VCM zu gewährleisten. Climate change is a global challenge, with estimated mitigation costs ranging from USD1.6 to USD3.8 trillion per year. As a pioneer in climate action, the European Union has the most extensive emissions trading system worldwide (87% of the global value of USD865 billion in 2022). The cumulative PhD thesis is divided into three articles dealing with the role of forest carbon credits in both compliance and voluntary carbon markets as well as investigating further potentials for forest investments in both of these markets. In the first article, we review the European Union's climate strategy, emphasizing the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) development, and the role of forest carbon credits for offsetting purposes, both in the European Union but also internationally. We argue that the European Union continues to leave a significant potential of forests - in particular tropical forests - as natural carbon sinks unattended. In contrast, we reveal that the regulators can learn from the experiences and improvements made in the past, the European Union’s Sustainable Carbon Cylces and the finalization and development of the rulebook for Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. We present a proposal on changes to the EU ETS regulation by converting the European Commission's legislation, recently agreed in the trilogue, to increase the linear reduction factor from 2.2% to 4.2% to the eligibility of forest carbon credits, resulting in additional funding potential for forestry projects to increase necessary carbon sinks. Simultaneously, allowing flexibility of investing to a limited extent in neutralization projects mitigates the risk of overstressing regulated companies to reach the emission reduction targets. The re-thinking of the status quo will not only require strengthening the robustness of carbon projects, but may also overcome the resistance of policy makers and NGOs. Forest-based carbon credits are crucial in most Emissions Trading Schemes as they offer a cost-efficient means of offsetting hard-to-abate emissions. To date, this has not been the case in the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS). However with the Paris Agreement rulebook now finalized, there could be an opportunity to revive this flexibility mechanism in European climate policy. Based on 24 expert interviews, we examined in the second article the forest potential within the EU ETS across short, medium, and long-term time frames. We found that the compliance system will remain blocked until 2030, but there is a greater likelihood of transitioning towards the inclusion of forest-based removals and reductions in the long term. Although forestry projects have faced significant reluctance in the EU, there is unanimous agreement on the importance of both technological solutions and such initiatives for climate protection. To fully leverage the potential of forest activity in the future, it will be necessary to adopt different methods and tools (e.g., liability regimes), stricter legislation on socio-economic factors (e.g., land use rights), overcoming implementation hurdles (e.g., do not compromise deterrence through mitigation), and maintaining an open political stance. This study provides a comprehensive perspective on the barriers and potentials of forestry projects within the compliance system of the EU which is essential to be addressed when re-opening the discussion on future eligibility. The implication of the findings suggest an immediate start to adopt to the barriers for carbon credit readiness in the next phase of the EU ETS beginning of 2030. The voluntary carbon market (VCM) has seen unprecedented growth over the past years, facilitated by corporate commitments. However, future development depends on the Paris Agreement strategy, in particular, Article 6. Therefore, the third article analyzes the various mechanisms suggested and their implications on the VCM. Of particular importance is the need for corresponding adjustments (CA) and how this requirement spills over to the VCM. The “new” type of carbon credits introduced during CoP27, that is, the “mitigation contribution A6.4ERs” will likely accelerate the consolidation of the VCM. Based on a semi-systematic review and expert interviews (N = 20), the current short-term (~2030) prospects support further growth of the VCM despite existing uncertainties caused by the incomplete technical details of the framework. Moreover, after intense and thorough negotiation, most experts deemed the Article 6 framework successful. In the mid-term (~2030-2045), a market transition will likely occur. Accordingly, the VCM will need to find its niche and reassess the current compensation tool used. This reassessment must go beyond a mere carbon perspective and focus on co-benefits to prolong the legitimacy of the VCM. Long-term (~2045) results indicate a decline in the VCM as it potentially combines with compliance markets. However, the infrastructure and robustness of Article 6 rulesets will help to ensure the full growth potential of the VCM.

    A fundamental change in societal values and economic structures is required to address increasing pressures on ecosystems and natural resources. Transition research has developed in the last decades to analyze the co-dynamics of technological, institutional, social and economic elements in the provision of key functions such as energy, water and food supply. This doctoral dissertation provides conceptual and methodological contributions to the pro-active governance of sustainability transitions. Three research gaps are identified that are addressed in this dissertation. First, a comprehensive conceptualization of learning in sustainability transitions is currently missing that comprises learning at multiple societal levels (ranging from individuals to policy-actors). Learning concepts are often not explicitly discussed in transition research even though learning is considered as fundamental for innovation processes, niche formation and development as well as breakthrough and diffusion of innovations. Second, methods for the analysis and design of transition governance processes are lacking that specify case-specific intervention points and roles of actors in the implementation of innovations. Third, participatory modeling approaches are only applied to a limited extent in transition research despite a high potential for supporting communication and learning. The conceptualization of multi-level learning developed in this doctoral research conceptualizes learning at different societal levels as specific learning contexts ranging from individual and group contexts to organizational and policy contexts. The conceptual framework further differentiates between learning processes, intensity, objects, outcomes, subjects and factors, allowing for a more detailed analysis of learning within and across learning contexts. Thus, learning contexts can be linked by processes that involve actors from different learning contexts (e.g., community groups and policy-makers), as well as exchanges of physical aspects, institutions ...

    Authors: Daróczy, László; Janiga, Gábor; Thevenin, Dominique;

    The importance of wind energy has progressed rapidly in the last years. Although Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines (HAWT) are most well-spread, there is an increasing interest in Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWT), especially in the H-Darrieus concept, as these rotors are omni-directional and affordable. However, the physics of these rotors is more complex; they can only be analyzed using transient CFD simulations. Due to the finite aspect ratio of the rotors, a wingtip vortex is created, which generates losses. Optimizing the wingtip geometry could be advantageous for increasing the efficiency of the rotors: this can only be achieved with three-dimensional turbulent transient simulations. For the optimization of winglets, the whole process (mesh generation, CFD computation, post-processing) has to be automated. This is achieved using the OPtimization Algorithm Library++ (OPAL++), a custom C++ code for the description of blended and canted winglets, coupled with a CD-Adapco StarCCM+ JAVA script for the automatization of the mesh generation and CFD computations. To check the viability of the present concept, two parameters have been varied in the simulations. As shown in what follows, an efficient automatic optimization of wind turbine wingtips can be implemented in this manner.

    The importance of wind energy has progressed rapidly in the last years. Although Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines (HAWT) are most well-spread, there is an increasing interest in Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWT), especially in the H-Darrieus concept, as these rotors are omni-directional and affordable. However, the physics of these rotors is more complex; they can only be analyzed using transient CFD simulations. Due to the finite aspect ratio of the rotors, a wingtip vortex is created, which generates losses. Optimizing the wingtip geometry could be advantageous for increasing the efficiency of the rotors: this can only be achieved with three-dimensional turbulent transient simulations. For the optimization of winglets, the whole process (mesh generation, CFD computation, post-processing) has to be automated. This is achieved using the OPtimization Algorithm Library++ (OPAL++), a custom C++ code for the description of blended and canted winglets, coupled with a CD-Adapco StarCCM+ JAVA script for the automatization of the mesh generation and CFD computations. To check the viability of the present concept, two parameters have been varied in the simulations. As shown in what follows, an efficient automatic optimization of wind turbine wingtips can be implemented in this manner.

    Authors: Barsoum, Mirna;

    Increasing agricultural productivity is one of the most important aims of modern biotechnology. One way to enhance the productivity of crop species is to enhance the efficiency of photosynthesis. In C3 plants the oxygenase activity of Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCo) limits the photosynthetic efficiency. The green microalgae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has evolved a CO2 concentration mechanism (CCM) by increasing the CO2 concentration in the chloroplast stroma where RuBisCO is located. Four independent transgenic tobacco genotypes (LA, LB, C1 and C3) were generated producing the low CO2-inducible protein A and B (LCIA and LCIB) or the carbonic anhydrases I and III (CAH1 and CAH3) from C. reinhardtii CCM in the envelope, stroma, intermembrane space or thylakoid lumen of tobacco chloroplasts, respectively. All four recombinant proteins were active in planta, which had a substantial impact on carbon and nitrogen metabolism. Increasing the CO2 concentration near RuBisCO resulted in an enhanced rate of photosynthesis (by up to 15%), efficiency of photosystem II (by up to 18%) and chlorophyll content (by up to 19%). Although to differing extents, all four transgenic genotypes grew faster than wild-type plants, produced more shoot biomass (up to 45% more fresh weight or 38% more dry weight in the LA lines) and accumulated more photosynthetic end products, reflecting the higher rate of photosynthetic CO2 fixation. The proteome analysis revealed that the proteins changed in the transgenic genotypes compared to the wild-type plants were primarily associated with the regulation of the Calvin cycle and the amino acid biosynthesis. Metabolic analysis of the transgenic LA, LB and C3 plants revealed an increase in the levels of carbohydrates and also of most amino acids. Furthermore, transgenic LA and LB plants could maintain the enhanced biomass under low nitrogen conditions, where similarly-treated wild-type plants grew more slowly. The data generated in the present study confirmed that even single Chlamydomonas CCM components can be integrated into C3 plants to increase biomass, suggesting that transgenic lines combining multiple components or even a complete CCM could further increase the productivity and yield of C3 crops.

    This Article examines the genesis and context of SE4All, placing the effort within both itshistorical and international policy contexts. It highlights the voluntary nature of the initiative andargues that its effective implementation and the achievement of its goals require the articulation ofan applicable international legal framework that aids the transformation of SE4All’s policy actionsinto binding international legal commitments. The article contends that such a transformation doesnot depend on the creation of entirely new legal rules or institutions. Instead, an effective frame-work for successful implementation of SE4All can be derived from existing rules of internationalhuman rights law and sustainable development law. Reliance on these twin bodies of interna-tional law will increase the prospects for SE4All to achieve energy access and related goals thatits predecessor initiatives have failed to accomplish

    This report sets out to analyse South Korea’s positioning in non-traditional security. Since the end of the Cold War, non-traditional threats have become more central to the national security of countries everywhere across the world. South Korea is no exception. However, most existing analyses of South Korea’s security tend to focus on traditional issues and great power politics, most notably North Korea’s military capabilities or Sino-American rivalry and the threat that each of them poses to South Korea. This report helps to address this imbalance in our understanding of threats to South Korean national security. The report analyses non-traditional security by focusing on four key domains: cyber, energy, maritime and trade.

    This report sets out to analyse South Korea’s positioning in non-traditional security. Since the end of the Cold War, non-traditional threats have become more central to the national security of countries everywhere across the world. South Korea is no exception. However, most existing analyses of South Korea’s security tend to focus on traditional issues and great power politics, most notably North Korea’s military capabilities or Sino-American rivalry and the threat that each of them poses to South Korea. This report helps to address this imbalance in our understanding of threats to South Korean national security. The report analyses non-traditional security by focusing on four key domains: cyber, energy, maritime and trade.

    Authors: Königstein, Stefan;

    Marine ecosystems are known to be climatea dependent, and impacts from progressing global climate change are increasingly observed and anticipated to intensify in the course of the 21st century. Under continuously high anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, drivers such as ocean warming, ocean acidification, and deoxygenation will increasingly affect marine ecosystems and the provision of marine ecosystem services to human societies. Environmental drivers affect organismal processes directly, but also have indirect effects through biotic interactions. Human societies are dependent on the ecosystem services provided by the oceans, and have limited adaptive capacities to changes in ecosystem service provision. An integrated evaluation of marinea human systems is thus necessary to understand coming changes, and is increasingly pursued by recent ecosystema based and integrated assessment and management approaches. The uncertainty of future climate change impacts and the interactions with the increasing anthropogenic pressures on marine systems need to be addressed. Ecological models are important tools to provide this integration of data and processes, as they can put experimental and observational data into context, and enable us to move beyond simple extrapolations of future states and experiences, creating an understanding of the changes in marine ecosystems anticipated in the future. While a wide variety of modeling approaches is available to answer specific ecological questions, a quantitative integration over different hierarchical levels, and different types of data and knowledge, is rarely achieved. The presented thesis revolves around a case study from the Barents Sea, which is among the marine regions with the earliest impacts of ocean acidification and warming expected and already observed, providing an integrative view of the impacts of these drivers on marine ecosystems and the provision of ecosystem services in the focus region. The work was built upon a thorough general analysis of available modeling approaches for modeling climate change impacts on marine fish populations (Paper 1). This analysis assessed capacities of the existing modeling approaches and recent applications, and revealed processes which need to be incorporated better in the light of recent experimental and observational results. A modeling framework to address the specific questions in the Barents Sea region was developed based on participation of stakeholders gained during personal interviews and two workshops (Paper 2). This served to incorporate their concerns and knowledge into the model structure and identify potential adaptation options for the stakeholder groups. To address one specific scientific question of high importance and uncertainty, the anticipated impacts on fish stock recruitment, an early life stage model was developed which incorporates the experimentally quantified effects of ocean acidification and warming on Atlantic cod eggs and larvae (Paper 3). This model offers a new approach to integrating empirical data on environmental and food-web drivers into recruitment projections of marine fish. Finally, an integrative fooda web model based on the structure developed in the stakeholder work and on current processa based understanding was parameterized with empirical data and estimates of organismal rates, to simulate the dynamic fluctuations in the Barents Sea food web and explore potential shifts in composition and dynamics under ocean warming and ocean acidification (Paper 4). In the thesis discussion, the papers are summarized and put into context, and the implications for the user groups in the region and possible societal adaptation options to the projected changes are highlighted. Impacts on fisheries, cultural and recreational ecosystem services, associated adaptation options for stakeholder groups, and interactions with other uses of the ocean system and expected changes under climate change are delineated. To advance ecosystema based governance in the area, the limitations in adaptation options of some user groups point to the need to better consider these groups in decisions and regulations concerning fisheries and marine areas. The Barents Sea study thus exemplifies the possibilities to integrate experiments, observations and stakeholder input into integrative assessments of marine ecosystems under climate change. Based on the insights gained from processa based modelling and stakeholder participation, it is described how understanding and projections of climate change impacts on marinea human systems can be advanced, pointing out the importance of improved interdisciplinary cooperation and communication and an integrative perspective to link across scales and subsystems a tasks to which purposefully designed models can contribute substantially.
