1. Assessing the Effectiveness of Urban Trees with Skeletal Soils in Flood Risk Mitigation
Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : With increased urbanization and climate change, heavy rainfall events and urban floods are becoming more frequent. To meet the demands for effective climate adaptation strategies and mitigation measures, Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) have received increased attention. LÄS MER
2. Design of a 2-D Lattice Flower Constellation for Earth observation applying the twin satellite concept
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Sammanfattning : Events such as forest fires or floods are a danger to our Earth’s environment and the people living in it. The sooner they can be detected, the less damage they can cause. An idea arises: use satellites to monitor the Earth and relay information to prevention and rescue organizations in a very short time, regardless of accessibility from ground. LÄS MER
3. THRIVE - with heritage to sustainability
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljöSammanfattning : The historic urban area of Lisbon emerged during the Middle Ages and was the origin of the development of a rather small neighbourhood, Mouraria. Not only did it count as the centre of the capital, but because of Lisbon being the metropolis of the Portuguese empire, Mouraria is now home to a diverse group of people, whose culture influences its special characteristics to this day.

4. Användning av riskbegreppet i en dagvattenkontext : En litteraturstudie om hur riskbegrepp används vid dimensionering av ledningsnät för dagvatten
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Sammanfattning : Climate change and urbanization is a threat for existing stormwater networks. Many stormwater networks are designed after historical rain data that will fail to predict future events due to large changes in rainfall patterns caused by climate change and urbanization. LÄS MER
5. The Influence of Infiltration Capacity and Antecedent Soil Moisture Conditions on Urban Pluvial Flooding
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : Urban pluvial floods occur during extreme rain events and both occurrence and magnitude of these floods are expected to increase. Preserving or constructing green areas in urban areas has been shown to mitigate and control these floods. LÄS MER
