16. Precipitation variability modulates the terrestrial carbon cycle in Scandinavia
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : Climate variability and the carbon cycle (C-cycle) are tied together in complex feedback loops and due to these complexities there are still knowledge-gaps of this coupling. However, to make accurate predictions of future climate, profound understanding of the C-cycle and climate variability is essential. LÄS MER
17. Urban stormwater ponds: Evaluation of heavy metals and organic pollutants in stormwater and stormwater sediments
Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserSammanfattning : Urban runoff is generated by precipitation of rain and snowmelt on impervious surfaces. The increasing demand of urbanization causes contaminants to accumulate on roads, roofs and pathways. In turn, as runoff wash off these surfaces, contaminants such as heavy metals, particles and organic pollutants end up in the stormwater. LÄS MER
18. Spatial Variability in Winter Balance on Storglaciären Modelled With a Coupled Terrain Based Approach
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : Although most processes governing the surface mass balance on mountain glaciers are well understood, the causes and extent of spatial variability in accumulation remain poorly constrained. In the present study, the EBFM distributed mass balance model is newly coupled to terrain based modelling routines estimating mass redistribution by snowdrift, preferential deposition, and avalanching (ST-EBFM) in order to model winter balance on Storglaciären, Sweden.

19. Vegetation-climate interactions in California – an in-depth analysis on the influence of climatic events across different Californian biomes
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : It is widely accepted that climate variability is a key driver of vegetation productivity. Yet, there are discrepancies on the ideal timescales of climatic events and vegetation response. The work herein attempts to clarify how those variables interact in the region of California. LÄS MER
20. Hydro-climatic Risk Assessment and Communication for Smallholder Farmers in Maharashtra
Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : Smallholder farmers often have great entrepreneurial qualities that build on generations of experience. However, many farm management practices are poorly adapted to current climate change conditions. LÄS MER
