Stefan Gössling

Stefan Gössling is a Professor of Tourism Research at Linnaeus University and Human Ecology at Lund University. His research focuses on the sustainability of tourism, transport, and mobilities, with particular attention to climate change, carbon emissions, and policy design.

• Key Research Areas: Climate change mitigation in tourism, transport sustainability, environmental impact assessment, carbon management, and mobility studies.

His recent publications analyze global air transport emissions, net-zero aviation challenges, decarbonization strategies, and climate risks to tourism in the European Union. Collaborative work with international colleagues explores economic, behavioral, and policy dimensions of sustainable tourism.

Selected Trends: Articles reveal growing emphasis on carbon inequality, transport justice, climate policy barriers, and systemic changes in urban and aviation contexts. Many studies employ interdisciplinary methods combining environmental science, economics, and behavioral analysis.
