  1. 1. Wildfire growth modelling in Sweden - a suitability assessment of available data

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Henrik Hagelin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Physical geography; Prometheus; WiSE-FASS; The 2014 Västmanland wildfire; Wildfire growth modelling; Wildfire suppression support; Wildfire behaviour; MESAN; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Wildfires are worldwide problems that stress societies by damaging their economies and they cause serious, sometimes fatal, health implications among the populations. In recent years, the rate of wildfire occurrence has increased as the global average temperature has risen. Because of global climate change, this rate is expected to continue rising. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Deposition av Black carbon i sjöar efter den stora skogsbranden i Västmanland 2014

    Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC); Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning

    Författare :Danny Wong; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Black carbon; BC; climate; environment; wildfire; boreal forests; lake sediments; Västmanland.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Black carbon (BC) is produced during incomplete combustion of Biomass and fossil fuels. BC and other carbonaceous pollutants have characteristics that affect the climate, environment, and human health. Historically, BC emissions have been measured and monitored in the atmosphere, and BC emissions to the air are quite well documented. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Influence of forest mires on wildfire : a landscape analysis of the 2014 Västmanland forest fire

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Författare :Andreas Souropetsis; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Forest fire; Mires fuel composition; Aerial photo interpretation;

    Sammanfattning : Forest fire is a major natural disturbance that influence forest ecosystem structure and composition at both the stand and landscape level. In boreal Fennoscandia fire frequency has been very low over the last c.150 years due to effective fire suppression, although occasionally high-intensity fires escape initial attack and grow big.

  5. 4. Privat-offentlig samverkan: en väg till utveckling av en långsiktig strategi för Sveriges försörjningsberedskap?

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Riskhantering (CI)

    Författare :Elin Axelsson; Siri Westermark; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Försörjningsberedskap; Privat-offentlig samverkan; POS; Security of supply; Public-private partnership; PPP; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : During recent history, Sweden has experienced several resource-intensive crises. For example, the Västmanland wildfire in 2014 and latest the Covid-19 pandemic. During these crises, those who were managing the crisis incurred a shortage of supplies. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Post-fire community changes in peatland dwelling beetles : A before-after-control impact study of beetle communities in Swedish mires after a megafire

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Janina Happ; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Coleoptera; Mires; Peatlands; Wildfire; Forestfire; Megafire;

    Sammanfattning : As a consequence to climate change and resulting severe weather events such as prolonged hot and dry periods, wildfire frequency increases globally. Progressively, these effects are noticeable in high latitude countries such as Sweden where a megafire burned 13 100 ha of managed coniferous forest in 2014. LÄS MER
