Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapSammanfattning : Trichosanthes.pilosa(=T. pilosa) commonly known as Japanese snake gourd is a plant in Cucurbitaceae family. They are adapted to grow in tropical monsoon, wet tropical, and humid subtropical climates across regions in East Asia, Southeast Asia, Northeast India, and North Australia. LÄS MER
2. Borne in Fire - A Study of Black Carbon Emitted from Coal Fired Power Plants in West Bengal, India.
Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för temaSammanfattning : Black carbon has been reported to have major impacts on climate, environmental quality, and health. A chemothermal oxidation method, ordinarily used to isolate black carbon from soils, sediments and aquatic samples was applied to explore atmospheric samples. LÄS MER
3. Extreme precipitation events in the Sichuan Basin and their connection to mesoscale disturbances
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : The Sichuan Basin (SB) is a region with frequent extreme precipitation during summer, principally as a result of its location and topography, with the most extreme events possibly leading to floodings and landslides. A better understanding of these extreme events’ characteristics and triggers could help to improve forecasting methods, while improving the knowledge about climate dynamics in the region is crucial for climate change studies.

4. Mesoscale precipitation systems in the Tibetan Plateau region as represented by global reanalysis, regional downscaling and satellite data between 2001 - 2016
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : The Tibetan Plateau (TP) is one of the world’s most important water towers. Convective precipitation systems play an important role by providing freshwater for the highly densely populated downstream regions, but they can also cause hazardous floods. LÄS MER
5. Mapping future floods in coastal Bangladesh - Impacts of projected changes in sea level and precipitation
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER
