  1. 1. Changing Tides and Navigating Uncertainty : An ethnographic study of NGO resilience in coastal South India

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Teologiska institutionen

    Författare :Emma Berglund; [2023]
    Nyckelord :NGO; India; Localisation; Resilience; India; Blue Economy; Community centered practice;

    Sammanfattning : What makes an non-governmental organisation (NGO) agile and resilient towards changes, pressures or uncertainties at community, state or macro-political level? By adopting a single case study based on semi-structured interviews and fieldwork, this thesis will dive into the life-world of a community-based NGO based in Nagapattinam, Tamil Nadu. Social Needs Education and Human Awareness (SNEHA) has since founding in the 1980s had a strong rights-based identity and evolved through various phases of community organising, disaster relief work, evidence-based advocacy and upholding of fisher communities traditional and customary rights.

  2. 2. Long-term morphological evolution of Cua Lo inlet, Central Vietnam

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Författare :Nikita Tegenfeldt; Orio Johansson; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Inlet morphology; Sand spit; Water exchange; Numerical modelling; Cua Lo river mouth; Sediment transport; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Cua Lo river mouth is a coastal inlet connected to an estuary at the central coast of Vietnam. The area is valuable for maritime trade, fishing industries, and tourism development. Natural disasters during the monsoon period are a problem, causing seasonal flooding. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Decreasing organic nitrogen concentrations in European water bodies - links to organic carbon trends and land cover

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Alexis Cazorla; [2020]
    Nyckelord :geography; GIS; physical geography; organic nitrogen; organic carbon; land cover; eutrophication; Europe; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : European rivers experience increasing concentrations of total organic carbon (TOC) from terrestrial sources due to factors involving changes in land use, climate and soil acidity. However, low interest is given to the evolution of total organic nitrogen (TON) concentrations in surface waters, the links with TOC concentrations and the influence of the surrounding land cover on nutrient inputs.

  4. 4. Beach Nourishment at Faxe Ladeplads in Zealand, Denmark

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Författare :Anna Adell; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Beach nourishment; erosion; coastal protection; coastal morphology; sediment dynamics; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The recent beach nourishment performed at Faxe Ladeplads in Zealand, Denmark was established with the objective to reduce wave overtopping onto the adjacent road and also aimed to restore a beach for recreation. During the time that the nourishment has been in place, the appearance of the beach has changed significantly compared to when it was initially restored. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Climate Change and Precipitation Variability Influence on the Greenland Ice Sheet

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik

    Författare :Jennie Olsson; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Physics; Ice Sheet; Surface Mass Balance; SMB; Representative Concentration Pathways; RCP; Climate Change; Greenland; Precipitation; Precipitation Variability; Glaciers; Glacier; Meteorology; Greenhouse Effect; Greenhouse Gas; Future Climate; Climate; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Climate changes have a large impact on precipitation patterns and precipitation variability change. With this in mind, precipitation over Greenland is studied. This is done for present day precipitation model data from 1991-2010 compared to future model simulations of precipitation for 2081-2100. LÄS MER
