  1. 1. Drivers of decomposition across Sphagnum bog margins

    Master-uppsats, Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för miljö- och livsvetenskaper (from 2013)

    Författare :Emil Nordström; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Peatlands; tea bag index; edge effects; carbon storage; carbon sequestration; waterlogging; Torvmark; kanteffekter; kollagring; koldioxidbindning;

    Sammanfattning : Peatlands provide multiple ecosystem services, including extensive carbon sequestration and storage, yet many peatlands have been degraded or destroyed. Peatlands carbon storage capacity is connected to inherently low decomposition rates, causing the build-up of organic matter.

  3. 2. What is the future? It is not in our hands : Women's realities of living in the southwest coastal region of Bangladesh in the context of environmental challenges

    Kandidat-uppsats, Jönköping University/Högskolan för lärande och kommunikation

    Författare :Moa Kemi; Isabell Svensk; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Bangladesh; women; environmental challenges; vulnerability; exposure; adaptation; gender; climate change; Conception of Risk; Feminist Political Ecology;

    Sammanfattning : Bangladesh is known as one of the most climate-vulnerable countries in the world, especially the southwest coastal region. This area frequently experiences extreme weather such as cyclones, storms, waterlogging, droughts, and high levels of salinity. These events are projected to intensify further with climate change.

  4. 3. Stormwater Adaptive Resilience and the Assessment of Rotterdam’s Urban Water System

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Urbana och regionala studier

    Författare :Yi Xiong; [2021]
    Nyckelord :resilience; urban water system; stormwater; urban flood;

    Sammanfattning : As the global climate gets warmer, local extreme weather becomes more frequent, and it becomes more and more difficult to accurately predict the occurrence of extreme rainfall. At the same time, the threat and destructiveness of stormwater weather to urban water systems and cities are also increasing due to the continuous advancement of urbanization, the continuous gathering of urban population and the increasingly obvious urban heat island effect.

  5. 4. Using leaf economics to find appropriate woody species for rain gardens

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Författare :Sanna Ignell; [2020]
    Nyckelord :leaf economics; woody vegetation; urban vegetation; rain garden; waterlogging; flooding; plasticity; specific leaf area; leaf traits; l;

    Sammanfattning : Urban rainwater management faces great challenges in the future, caused by expected increase in precipitation and frequency of storms associated with climate change. Constructions such as rain gardens may be a mean for adaptation to, as well as mitigation of these effects. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Beslutsstöd för att finna diken och bedöma behov av dikesrensning

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

    Författare :Elias Hannus; [2019]
    Nyckelord :hydrologi; erosion; flödesschema; markfuktighetskarta; höjdmodell; bildtolkning; hydrology; erosion; flow chart; soil moisture map; digital elevation model; image interpretation;

    Sammanfattning : En betydande areal torvtäckt mark dikades i Sverige under första halvan av 1900-talet i syfte att omvandla myrimpediment till produktiv skogsmark. Många av dikena hos markvärden för denna studie, Svenska Cellulosa AB (SCA), är nu i behov av rensning för att produktionen skall bibehållas. Rensning medför också allvarliga miljörisker. LÄS MER
