  1. 1. A GP-Surrogate-Based Bayesian Framework for Surge Barrier Optimization

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Författare :Abel Valko; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Bayesian Optimization; Gaussian Process Regression; Storm Surge; GeoClaw; GISSR;

    Sammanfattning : Tropical cyclone induced storm surges are some of the largest environmental risks facing infrastructure and human life in dense urban environments. Hurricane Sandy caused 44 deaths and damage of 19 billion US dollars in New York City alone. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Mapping future floods in coastal Bangladesh - Impacts of projected changes in sea level and precipitation

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Agnes Pierre; [2022]
    Nyckelord :flood modelling; TFM-DYN; sea level rise; land subsidence; extreme precipitation; tidal flooding; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The exposure to flooding in coastal Bangladesh is expected to increase throughout the century as a result of climate change-induced sea level rise and intensified monsoon precipitation. The current consequences of flooding include damage to infrastructure, economy, and health through inundation and saline intrusion, and are likely to affect a larger population in the future.

  4. 3. Framtida vattenförsörjning i Stockholms skärgård och dess påverkan av klimatförändringar

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

    Författare :Malin Aleljung; Frida Wistfors; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Stockholm archipelago; groundwater; climate change; water shortage; saltwater intrusions; Stockholms skärgård; grundvatten; klimatförändring; vattenbrist; saltvatteninträngning;

    Sammanfattning : Denna rapport undersöker grundvattenmagasin på öar i Stockholms skärgård och hur de förväntas påverkas av klimatförändringarna. Främst granskas grundvattnets kvantitet och kvalitet fram till år 2100 utifrån två olika klimatscenarion framtagna av FN:s klimatpanel. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Urban infrastructure inundation risk from permanent sea-level rise scenarios in London (UK), Bangkok (Thailand) and Mumbai (India): A comparative analysis

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Shawn Pace; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Geography; GIS; Climate Change; Sea-Level Rise; Urban Infrastructure; DEM; London; Mumbai; Bangkok; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Due to anthropogenically created climate change, global cities are facing inundation by rising sea levels. This study aimed to fill knowledge gaps in understanding the exposure of urban infrastructure such as roads, railways, buildings and parks to sea-level rise (SLR) scenarios, and how this would affect local populations.

  7. 5. The hydrodynamic impacts of Estuarine Oyster reefs, and the application of drone technology to this study

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Oskar Evert Johansson; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Geography; Geographical Information Systems; GIS; Physical Geography; Oyster Reef; Drone; UAV; Hydrodynamics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The impacts of climate change are being seen within the estuarine environment through erosion and shoreline retreat, associated with sea-level rise and changes in storm activity. Restoration oyster reefs have been identified as a working-with-nature strategy to protect and restore these shoreline environments, stabilising sediment, and reducing erosion. LÄS MER
