    Sammanfattning : Climate change has repeatedly been framed as the defining issue of the Anthropocene and with the Arctic changing at unpreceded speed need is high for a profound understanding of the Northern Swedish landscape. Northern Swedish aeolian sand dunes have been impacted by climatic changes throughout time. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Reproduction in the (m)Anthropocene : exploring the roots and implications of environmentally friendly restrain from childbearing

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi; Lunds universitet/Humanekologi

    Författare :Kristina Rukaite; [2020]
    Nyckelord :“Have one fewer child”; reproduction control; environmental individualization; gender and climate change; m Anthropocene; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis departs from scientific literature which suggests to “have one fewer child” as the most effective individual lifestyle choice to reduce one’s contribution to (and even actively fight against) climate change. By employing critical discourse analysis of this literature, I explore how childbearing and carbon emissions have been coupled, and what the implications of this phenomenon are. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Study of morphological evolution of dune fields in Cantabria  (N. Spain) during the Anthropocene

    Sammanfattning : The beach-dune system constitutes a dynamic system in which several natural processes interact, both at short and long time scale. Beaches are important because are the source of sediment for the dunes that form at the limit of the shore and that create barriers that protect the mainland from the high energy waves and from floods.
