1. 1. Temporal Projections of the Shoreline Displacement on Gotland

   Kandidat-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

   Författare :Yonathan Tekeste; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Sea Level Rise; Shoreline Displacement; Gotland;

   Sammanfattning : Global mean sea level rise (GMSLR) impacts the displacement of the world’s coasts and shorelinedifferently due to it being contingent on local topographic and geological conditions. The island of Gotlandis located in the Fennoscandian Shield which lies at the intersection between GMSLR and post-glacialrebound (PGR), at rates that vary latitudinally and, in some areas, are at equal levels.

3. 2. High tide flooding in near future projections for popular travel destinations

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

   Författare :David Ebert; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; High tide flooding; Projections; Adaptation and mitigation strategies; Lunar precession; Nodal cycle; Cycle of lunar perigee; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : High tide flooding (HTF) is becoming more common in coastal regions of the United States, although this phenomenon remains largely undocumented in published literature from other parts of the world. No matter the emissions scenario over the next decades, sea level rise (SLR) is projected to continue worldwide until at least the end of the 21st century, continually pushing the frequency and severity of HTF.

4. 3. Coastal Response to Sea Level Rise in Ystad Municipality

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Författare :Elin Olsson; Sara Engström; [2021]
   Nyckelord :coastal erosion; Bruun Rule; sea level rise; coastal management; beach morphology; coastal processes; Technology and Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : The globally accelerating sea-level rise poses a problem in coastal areas through, e.g., the erosion of sandy beaches. Due to this, buildings, infrastructure, and other values can be lost, making the future shoreline position important to project in coastal management. 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. Detection of slush on the Greenland Ice Sheet using Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite imagery

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

   Författare :Viktor Wu; [2020]
   Nyckelord :slush; Greenland Ice Sheet GrIS ; surface mass balance SMB ; sea level rise SLR ; satellite imagery; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : Sea Level Rise (SLR) is a growing global concern that is heavily influenced by a warming climate. Because of a potentially large added mass to the ocean through ice melt, the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) plays an important role in the contribution to SLR. LÄS MER
