  1. 1. Utvärdering av biotopvårdande åtgärder i Grimåsbäcken. En analys av fysikaliska egenskaper och sammansättning av makroevertebrater.

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Björn Andermo; [2024-01-22]
    Nyckelord :Channelized streams; retention; biotope preservation; macroinvertebrates; bottom substrate; woody debris.;

    Sammanfattning : Many streams have been exposed to extensive anthropogenic impact for the benefit of forestry and agriculture. The effects has mainly been channelization characterized by lowered and straightened channels. This homogeneous morphology leads to decreased ability to retain water as well as lost connection to the floodplain. LÄS MER

  3. 2. THE FIRST ACTIVE ACID SULFATE SOIL FOUND OUTSIDE THE BALTIC BASIN, IN VISKA VALLEY WEST COAST OF SWEDEN

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Johanna Bergström; [2023-09-15]
    Nyckelord :Acid sulfate soil; AS soil; ERT measurements; resistivity; Baltic basin; Swedish west coast; acidification; Tapes transgression;

    Sammanfattning : Acid sulfate (AS) soils are naturally formed but are responsible for environmental problem due to its low pH. Drainage of active AS soils can lead to mobilization of harmful metals and a severe pH drop in nearby aquatic environments, which in turn may harm the ecological conditions. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Hydraulic Modelling of Eurasian Beaver Structural Modifications: Implications for Evaluating their Contributions to Natural Flood Management in Scotland

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

    Författare :Maja Christina Pitcairn; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Beaver reintroduction; Scotland; Flood risk; Natural flood management; Hydraulic modelling.; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The concurrent climate and biodiversity crises in Scotland necessitate the exploration of ecosystem-based adaptation to simultaneously address increased flood risk and the loss of native species. This research investigated the contributions of Eurasian beaver reintroductions to natural flood management in Scotland. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Infiltrated Neighborhood - Climate Adaptive Urbanism in Bangkok

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Författare :Pimruetai Maneekorn; [2021]
    Nyckelord :urban design sustainable development climate-adaptive infrastructure; Arts and Architecture;

    Sammanfattning : Under the rapid urbanization of Bangkok, the water town on a floodplain, has changed into a jungle concrete of high-rise buildings and road structure that has adopted from the West but does not cope with the water-related traditional way of living of the Thai people. Consequently, Bangkok has been facing more frequent and more severe impact of urban flooding while people neglected and forgot their own existing treasure, canals and river, that can play an important role in dealing with the unforeseen water situation.

  7. 5. Analysis of floodplain population dynamics in the USA from 1790 to 2010​

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Firoza Akhter; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Floodplain; levee; flood damage; flood insurance; population dynamics; population growth rate;

    Sammanfattning : Floodplain is an important location for the economic and social development of society throughout history, although it afflicted by different disasters like floods and bank erosion from time to time. Population dynamics and distribution trends have important effects on the landscape and society. LÄS MER
