  1. 1. Potential and Limitations of the Sketch Map Tool in the International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Författare :Kimon Letzner; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Disaster risk reduction; Participatory action research; Community risk mapping; International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement; Colombia; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : In disaster risk management, participatory mapping (PM) closes spatial data gaps in communities by integrating local risk knowledge. The thesis examined the potential and limitations of the Sketch Map Tool (SMT) as a PM tool for community-based disaster risk reduction (DRR) through an International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement case study.

  3. 2. Anticipating Glacier Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs): an impact-based forecasting framework for managing GLOF risks in Nepal.

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Författare :Grace Muir; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Anticipatory Action; Impact-based Forecasting; Glacier Lake Outburst Flood; Nepal; Risk-informed Early Action; Prediction; Disaster Risk Management; Science General;

    Sammanfattning : Glacier lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are an increasingly documented threat across the Himalayan region, wherein Nepal is situated. GLOFs involve a rapid discharge of water from a lake situated at the side, front, within, beneath, or on the surface of a glacier. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Effects of drought on waterchemistry in a boreal streamnetwork

    Kandidat-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Författare :Enrique Gómez de Salazar Martínez; [2021]
    Nyckelord :: drought; boreal streams; Krycklan Catchment Study; land cover; biogeochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Hydrological drought at high latitudes represents a rising environmental hazard induced byglobal climate change. Yet, we still know little about how drought events influence thebiogeochemistry of boreal streams. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Den shifting behaviour of female wolverines (Gulo gulo) in Northern Sweden

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Författare :Rick Heeres; [2020]
    Nyckelord :wolverine; Gulo gulo; den; denning; denning behaviour; den shifts; habitat; environmental conditions; female experience; resource availability; survival analysis; reproduction; snow; climate;

    Sammanfattning : Many species of mammals make use of “den sites” for multiple purposes. Wolverine (Gulo gulo) females give birth to and rear their cubs in den sites during the denning season (February to June, hereafter denning season). LÄS MER

  7. 5. Modellering av åtgärdsintervall för vägar med tung trafik

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistik

    Författare :My Brännmark; Ellen Fors; [2019]
    Nyckelord :time-to-event analysis; Cox Proportional Hazards Model; heavy traffic; maintenance interval; long term pavement performance; överlevnadsanalys; Cox Proportional Hazards Model; tung trafik; åtgärdsintervall; långtidsuppföljning av vägkonstruktioners tillståndsförändring;

    Sammanfattning : In Sweden, there has been an long term effort to allow as heavy traffic as possible, provided thatthe road network can handle it. This is because heavy traffic offers a competitive advantage withsocio-economic gains. LÄS MER
