  1. 21. Water Well Investigations in the Nampula Province, Mozambique - A Minor Field Study

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Ekosystemteknik (CI)

    Författare :Elin Olsson; [2016]
    Nyckelord :Geophysical borehole logging; resistivity; natural gamma radiation; Nampula; Mozambique; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Access to clean water for drinking and sanitation is a human right. Today water scarcity is a large problem and inequality in access to safe water is a striking truth. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Bridging the Gaps : A Field Study on the Impact of Societal Gaps on Livelihoods in Lichinga Municipality, Mozambique

    Magister-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för samhällsstudier (SS)

    Författare :Juliana Bennett; Ulrike Luise Bens; [2016]
    Nyckelord :Mozambique; Lichinga Municipality; Sustainable Rural Livelihoods; Households; Gaps;

    Sammanfattning : This study was performed in the spring of 2016 in the Lichinga municipality in northern Mozambique, as a part of the Master Programme in Peace and Development Work at Linnaeus University in Växjo, Sweden. The agricultural dynamics within Mozambique point to the need for this sector to be the cornerstone of development, since 80% of the population is employed in the agricultural sector yet only making up a quarter of the country’s GDP.

  3. 23. Water Well Investigation in Nampula Province - Slug Tests in Weathered Crystalline Rock

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Författare :Sofia Hallerbäck; [2016]
    Nyckelord :Slug tests; Hydraulic conductivity; Weathered crystalline rock; Water Resources; Safe Drinking Water; Mozambique; Hand Pumped Water Wells; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : In Nampula Province, Mozambique, locating productive wells is a problem due to the heterogeneity in local geology, which consists of mainly weathered crystalline rock. This study estimates hydraulic conductivity of 10 hand pumped water wells in rural areas of Nampula Province using slug tests, and is a follow up of Andersson and Björnström (2013) and of Enkel and Sjöstrand (2013).
