1. 1. Den taktiska fördelen med få större ytstridsfartyg jämfört med fler mindre inom ramen för en kustförsvarsoperation

   Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

   Författare :Christian Backman; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Sjökrigföring; ytstrid; taktik; Hughes Salvo Model; Law and Political Science;

   Sammanfattning : The ambition of this study is to assess whether it is most tactically advantageous to have fewer larger surface combatant ships compared to more smaller ones within the framework of a coastal defense operation in Swedish waters. The study notes that since the torpedo was first fired in anger in battle more than 135 years ago, small warships have for long had the ability to sink larger warships. LÄS MER

3. 2. Klimatanpassning - En komplex verklighet : En studie om hantering och samordning av arbetet med stigande havsnivåer och kusterosion i fyra skånska kustkommuner

   Kandidat-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för Urbana Studier (US)

   Författare :Carolina Ivarsson; Louise Tullberg; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Climate change adaption; rising sea levels; coastal erosion; coastal protection and comprehensive planning; klimatanpassning; förhöjda havsnivåer; kusterosion; kustskydd och översiktsplanering;

   Sammanfattning : Vårt samhälle står inför stora utmaningar när det kommer till klimatförändringarna. Inte minst i att anpassa samhället för att hantera konsekvenser som stigande havsnivåer och kusterosion. LÄS MER

4. 3. 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.

5. 4. Disaster Risk Reduction and Management in Metro Manila, Philippines : Case Study of the 2020 Typhoons: Quinta, Rolly and Ulysses

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Författare :Sara Ellinor Granström; [2022]
   Nyckelord :Disaster risk reduction and management; Philippines; Metro Manila; typhoons; tropical cyclones; loss and damage; transformation as liberation; Reducering och hantering av katastrofrisker; Filippinerna; Metro Manila; tyfoner; tropiska cykloner; förlust och skada; förändring som befrielse;

   Sammanfattning : The Philippines is considered one of the most vulnerable countries in the world to climate disasters due to a combination of its geospatial, political, economic, and social attributes. The nation gets hit with an average of 20 annual tropical cyclones, also known as typhoons, and through the process of climate change, these events are only growing in both frequency and magnitude.

7. 5. At the Heart of the Critical Vulnerability : Exploring Organizational and Technological Flexibility in Coastal Defense Anti-Ship Missile Warfare

   Master-uppsats, Försvarshögskolan

   Författare :Jan-Erik Linell; [2022]
   Nyckelord :Anti-Ship Missile; Coastal Defense; Naval Tactics; Anti-Surface Warfare; Organizational Flexibility; Technological Flexibility; Redundancy; Versatility; Balance; Missile Salvo Model;

   Sammanfattning : In coastal defense operations, anti-ship missile (ASM) attacks on amphibious assault high value targets (HVT) constitutes a window of opportunity with decisive potential. However, in war, the availability and performance of ASM-forces is uncertain and most likely less than ideal. LÄS MER
