  1. 1. An Examination of Nature-based Solutions for Coastal Adaptation in Southern Sweden

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Författare :Elizabeth Fiertz; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Green Infrastructure; Resilience; Disaster Risk Reduction; Climate Change Adaptation; Coastal Flood Protection; Erosion Protection; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : While grey infrastructure, such as sea walls, have been the traditional method of mitigating coastal hazards there has been an increasing interest in adapting using natural processes, known as Nature-based Solutions (NbS). As with most places in the world, southern Sweden is facing an increase in coastal hazards due to climate change related sea level rise. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Coastal erosion in the region of Thu Bon River mouth, Vietnam

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Författare :Eric Asplund; Hanna Malmström; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Coastal erosion; Cua Dai Beach; longshore sediment transport; EBED; Cascade; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Coastal erosion has increased worldwide during the last decades, mostly due to human activities. Vietnam is not spared, where many places within the country suffer from beach erosion. This report focuses on the region around Thu Bon river mouth in the central part of Vietnam. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Dynerosion vid kraftiga stormar i Skanör-Falsterbo

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Författare :Mikael Dunér; Axel Flodin Vacher; [2017]
    Nyckelord :Dune erosion; Skanör-Falsterbo; Modelling; Beach; Storms and high-water levels; XBeach.; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract Title: Dune erosion during storms in Skanör-Falsterbo - simulations with the help of XBeach Authors: Mikael Dunér and Axel Flodin Vacher Supervisors: Professor Magnus Larson and Doctoral Student Björn Almström, Division of Water Resources Engineering at Lund Institute of Technology, Lund University. Presentation of problem: With a rising sea-level, because of the climate change, the risk of flooding in coastal regions is increasing. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Kusterosion och äldre kustdyners morfologi i Skälderviken

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Författare :Mark Björnfors; [2016]
    Nyckelord :geologi; morfologi; kustdyner; kusterosion; Skälderviken; sedimentologi; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Sediment samples have been collected in a collaboration with the faculty of engineering, Lunds Univer-sity in the northern parts of Skälderviken to determine the ongoing erosion that has been observed in earlier studies. The previous tests are the basis of the study and have been correlated with new samples taken along the coast. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Adapting to Climate Change on the Coasts of Ireland: Lessons from California: How the Pacific can enlighten the Atlantic?

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Författare :Cillian Mcmahon; [2015]
    Nyckelord :Climate Change; Adaptation; Coastal Areas; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Coastal areas throughout the world are vulnerable to the effects of a changing climate. The warming of the world’s oceans, and the consequent rise in sea levels, will result in more severe coastal flooding, in accelerated erosion, and in the increased occurrence of extreme weather events.
