  1. 1. Aeolian and Pedogenic Processes of Loess in Southern England

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Ragna Orbe; [2019]
    Nyckelord :loess; Pegwell Bay; grain size distribution; magnetic susceptibility; past-climate reconstruction; lössavlagringar; Pegwell Bay; partikelstorleks distribution; magnetisk mottaglighet; historisk klimatrekonstruktion;

    Sammanfattning : Loess is an aeolian sediment that can be utilized as a detailed proxy of past climate, since it is one of few sediments that is deposited directly from the atmosphere on land. Investigation of loess deposits can give understanding of past regional and local wind circulation patterns and velocities, atmospheric dustiness, as well as paleo-precipitation and weathering conditions.

  3. 3. Inundation scenarios in a changing climate : assessing potential impacts of sea-level rise on the coast of South-East England

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

    Författare :Adela Nistora; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Geography; Geographical Information Systems; GIS; Climate Change; Climate Change Impacts; Sea-Level Rise; Coastal Inundation; LiDAR; South-East England; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study was to explore sea-level rise (SLR) exposure in South-East England by conducting a broad analysis of some of the possible impacts of inundation in the region under different SLR scenarios in a warming climate. The potential effects of coastal inundation were mapped and quantified by applying a modified bathtub modelling approach in GIS to a low-elevation coastal Digital Terrain Model (DTM) derived from up-to-date, high-resolution, high-accuracy LiDAR data.
