  1. 21. Pluvial urban flooding in a densified Sweden : do sustainable flood management and densification fit together?

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Författare :Helena Arro; [2023]
    Nyckelord :urban flooding; pluvial urban flooding; sustainable urban flood management; technological fix; densification;

    Sammanfattning : Pluvial urban flooding occurs in many parts of the world, including Sweden, often with severe consequences. Climate change and increased urbanization exacerbate the risk of urban flooding, and traditional urban drainage systems are unable to keep up. LÄS MER

  3. 22. High tide flooding in near future projections for popular travel destinations

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

    Författare :David Ebert; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; High tide flooding; Projections; Adaptation and mitigation strategies; Lunar precession; Nodal cycle; Cycle of lunar perigee; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : High tide flooding (HTF) is becoming more common in coastal regions of the United States, although this phenomenon remains largely undocumented in published literature from other parts of the world. No matter the emissions scenario over the next decades, sea level rise (SLR) is projected to continue worldwide until at least the end of the 21st century, continually pushing the frequency and severity of HTF.

  4. 23. Using a social registry to assess household social vulnerability to natural hazards in Malawi

    Magister-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för geografi

    Författare :Petter Sundqvist; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Household Social Vulnerability Index; Principal Component Analysis; Vulnerability Map; Natural Hazards; Disaster Risk Management; Flood Vulnerability; Social Registry; United Beneficiary Registry; Malawi; Nsanje;

    Sammanfattning : Social factors moderate the impacts of natural hazards, which means that households are affected differently when exposed to the same hazard. This differential impact of hazards can be explained by the concept of social vulnerability, which is commonly assessed to inform disaster preparedness and response action. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Assessing the Practical Use of an Integrated Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation Approach: A Case Study on Bangladesh

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Författare :Pim Roupé; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Disaster Risk Reduction; Climate Change Adaptation; Disaster Management; Climate Change; Natural Hazards; Resilience;

    Sammanfattning : The ambition of this thesis is to fulfill two aims. The first aim is theory development, by presenting a theoretical framework where climate change adaptation (CCA) and disaster risk reduction (DRR) are combined. The second aim is empirical, where the theoretical framework is used to analyze an example of DRR with an ambition to include CCA. LÄS MER
