  1. 6. Sambandsanalys över dränering av supraglaciala sjöar

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Maja Granberg; [2021]
    Nyckelord :supraglaciala sjöar; samband; dränering; ArcMap;

    Sammanfattning : When the glacier ice melts can the water accumulate in topographic depressions to form supraglacial lakes. These evolve during the melting seasons and can be seen clearly by satellite image on the northeastern part of Greenland. These lakes are known to rapidly drain through fracture propagation. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Stratigraphic and palaeoenvironmental observations in the deposits of a postglacial kettle hole, in the county of Västernorrland

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för idé- och samhällsstudier

    Författare :Genofeva Eva Kourela; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Multiproxy analysis; palaeoenvironment; minerals; peat accumulation; kettle hole; Coleoptera; environmental archaeology;

    Sammanfattning : The increased human impact on the environment and climate after the retreat of the Last Glacial has strengthened its importance in the region of Västernorrland where Mesolithic sites are evident. This study focuses on a multiproxy analysis, where archaeological and natural science methods are combined to test several techniques in a peat sample. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Holocene lake-level changes in the Siljan Lake District – Towards validation of von Post’s drainage scenario

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Författare :Savvas Paradeisis-Stathis; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Lake Siljan; Dalarna; basin isolation; catastrophic drainage; early Holocene; lake sediments; XRF scanning; C N ratio; magnetic susceptibility; pollen; Ancylus Lake; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The Dalarna province in south-central Sweden shows a great variety of geological evidence from the Late Quaternary. A peculiar deglaciation pattern, along with unique hydrological conditions, has left a lot of space for speculations over the palaeoenvironmental conditions during the early Holocene. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Periglacial and glacial landform mapping in the Las Veguitas catchment, Cordillera Frondal of the Andes (Argentina).

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Författare :Eirini Makopoulou; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Geomorphological map; thermokarst lakes; glaciers; GIS; Argentinian Andes; spatial and temporal analysis;

    Sammanfattning : The semi-arid and arid Andes of South America are characterized by large areas with glacial and periglacial environments. This study focusses on the distribution of glacial and periglacial landforms in the Las Veguitas catchment, Cordillera Frontal, Argentina. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Climate Blame Below The Glaciers - Challenges to Climate Justice in Peruvian Mountains and German Courts

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Humanekologi

    Författare :Line Skovlund Larsen; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Climate Blame; Climate Justice; Perceptions of Climate Change Causes; Climate Liability; Climate Litigation; Individual Guilt; Collective Responsibility; Diffuse Responsibility; Water Scarcity; Glacial Lake Outburst Flood; The Global South; The Andes; RWE; Huaraz; Peru; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates climate blame amongst a local population in the Northern Andes, Peru, and relates it to arguments on climate liability in German courtrooms. It does so on the backdrop of a climate lawsuit, which in 2017 was accepted by the Higher Regional Court in Hamm, Germany, filed by a Peruvian farmer against a German coal- and electricity company.
