  1. 1. Guidelines for Integrated Flood Control Design in the Informal Settlements of Cape Town Municipality : A case study of Kosovo Informal Settlement in Philippi District

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Urbana och regionala studier

    Författare :Erasmus Mseleku; [2021]
    Nyckelord :climate change; community participation; flooding; informal settlements; integrated water management systems; nature-based solutions; spatial inequality; sustainability; urban flooding;

    Sammanfattning : Flooding over the last few years has become the most frequent and devastating of the natural disasters. This has accounted for approximately half of the death-rate and a third of economic losses as a result of weather-related events. LÄS MER

  3. 2. High resolution modelling and analysis of urban flooding

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Författare :Angelos Kosmas; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Tokyo Storm Runoff model; TSR; urban flooding; Augustenborg; stormwater management; pipe networks; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The predictions on climate change and precipitation patterns in the near future, as well as urbanization, lead to higher volumes of runoff, which in turn challenge the sustainability and functionality of urban drainage pipe networks. In order to understand how these changes will affect the existing infrastructure in urban areas, integrated urban water model software are needed to identify effective solutions to minimize urban flooding.

  4. 3. Grönblått Stockholm : Förutsättningar för klimatsmarta snötippningsplatser

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

    Författare :Anton Thölberg; [2019]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Klimatforskare världen över är i stort sett eniga om att mänskliga aktiviteter påverkar de pågåendeklimatförändringarna. Sett ur ett globalt perspektiv fortsätter många länder att släppa ut stora mängder växthusgaser och enligt flera studier förväntas konsekvenserna av utsläppen verka långt in i framtiden, även om den globala temperaturhöjningen hålls under två grader.

  5. 4. Nature-based Solutions for Flood Risk Reduction, Contamination Control and Climate Change Adaption

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbarhet och miljöteknik

    Författare :Hanna Nordin von Platen; Matilda Gustafsson; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Nature- based solutions; wetlands; flood risk mitigation; sediment connectivity;

    Sammanfattning : Heavy precipitation events are expected to increase in the future, due to climate change. This predicted change will increase the risk of flooding, especially in urban areas. To mitigate these challenges and support a sustainable urban development, Nature-based solutions (NBS) can be used as a flood risk reduction measure. LÄS MER

  7. 5. REinventing Flood Control

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

    Författare :Hanna Celine Rauschkolb; [2017]
    Nyckelord :Flood resilient urban design; climate adaption; Sustainable urban design; integrated flood control; Dike design; Water sensitive urban design; Flood proofing; Public space; Urban development; Arts and Architecture;

    Sammanfattning : Climate change adaption is becoming more and more crucial within sustainable urban design. Global warming affects an increase of heavy rainfall events in Europe and especially in Germany. Deggendorf, a city in southeast Germany, has experienced a severe flood in 2013 caused by a dike burst. LÄS MER
