  1. 1. Hur representeras klimatinduceradmigrationi nationell policy? : En komparativ studie av problemrepresentioneri två stillahavsländer

    Kandidat-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Socialantropologiska institutionen

    Författare :Isabelle Holman; [2022]
    Nyckelord :klimatinduceradmigration; klimatförändringar; migration; Kiribati; Nya Zeeland; WPR; Stillahavet;

    Sammanfattning : One consequence of climate change more frequently discussed is its’ impact on climate-induced migration. This is especially relevant for low-lying atoll islands in the Pacific, where the impacts on migration are anticipated to be of great extent. LÄS MER

  3. 2. “It’s only possible with resistance.” Understanding the Importance of Public Participation and Power in Climate Change Adaptation on the Halligen, Germany

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/LUCSUS

    Författare :Friederike Küchler; [2022]
    Nyckelord :traditional knowledge; actor-oriented power perspective; low lying islands; refusal; sustainability science; maladaptation; Halligen; Germany; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Halligen are small low-lying islands that only exist in the North Sea and get flooded during storm surges. The North Sea’s Sea level is projected to rise 60 to 70cm by 2100, making climate change adaptation a question of survival for the Hallig residents. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Rethinking Gender in Climate Change: A mixed-method study in two small Char lands in Northern Bangladesh

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen; Lunds universitet/Graduate School; Lunds universitet/Master of Science in Development Studies

    Författare :Anika Binte Habib; [2021]
    Nyckelord :gender; power; climate change; Char lands; Bangladesh; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Research Problem and Objectives: Bangladesh is one of the most vulnerable countries in the world to climate change. Over the last years, scholars have discussed that climate change has disproportionate impacts on people as the result of their social, political and economic conditions. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Water assisted CO intercalation underneath Ir(111) supported graphene studied with scanning tunneling microscopy

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Kaivalya Mevada; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Graphene; Intercalation; STM; CVD; TPG; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Graphene have attracted attention recently due to its unique properties and opportunities for development of high performance carbon based devices. The intercalation, absorption and reactions processes of small molecules above and below the graphene islands hold the key for new perspectives in catalysis, molecular sensors and other technologies.

  7. 5. Landscape and Identity in Kiribati

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för arkeologi och antik historia

    Författare :Jana Gheuens; [2017]
    Nyckelord :Landscape; Identity; Climate Change; Kiribati; Migration;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, I will look into the relationship between landscape and identity on the island nation of Kiribati, a low lying island nation in the Micronesian region of the Pacific that is currently under threat by climate change. Based on qualitative research from several islands in Kiribati (semi-structured interviews and observations), I explore how landscape and landscape changes, identity, and present and future challenges are perceived by Kiribati residents.
