    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the implementation of new urban water management and planningapproaches in Denmark, with a specific focus on integrating solutions for extreme rainfallevents and enhancing livability. The study explores the Principles of Water Wise Cities as aframework for incorporating these aspects through Water Sensitive Urban Designs (WSUD). LÄS MER

  3. 3. Reconnecting Gävle’s Delta : a post-industrial urban transformation project for Sweden’s coastal landscape

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

    Författare :Rachel Murray; [2023]
    Nyckelord :resilience; blue-green infrastructure; nature-based solutions; flooding; brownfield development; post-industrial urban development; landscape architecture; urban planning; climate adaptation; water-sensitive urban design; urban ecology;

    Sammanfattning : This speculative design-led research project addresses the challenges of transforming dilapidated post-industrial brownfield sites into thriving, sustainable, resilient urban neighbourhoods.

  4. 4. Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) as a climate adaptation strategy

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Urbana och regionala studier

    Författare :Andrea Fumero; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Water Sensitive Urban Design; Flooding; Resilience; Climate adaptation; Rotterdam; Copenhagen; Malmö; PHVision;

    Sammanfattning : “Global floods and extreme rainfall events have surged by more than 50% in the past decade and recent studies show that they are occurring four times higher than in 1980” (Neslen, 2018). At the same time, the urban population is rising. LÄS MER

  5. 5. REinventing Flood Control

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö
