About Jessika Lönn

Research Area

PhD student in the Urban Climate Group and involved in the HEAT research project.

My research focuses on the relationship between urban form, heat, and older adults’ behaviour, health, and well-being. In this work, I use both quantitative and qualitative methods to develop a broader and deeper understanding of these links. This includes climate modelling, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), GPS, and surveys, as well as focus groups and diaries. The research is strongly rooted in Gothenburg, while also taking a broader perspective on cities across Sweden. The aim is to contribute knowledge that can support the development of climate-adapted and age-friendly cities.
