  1. 1. Drivers of sea level variability using neural networks

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Linn Carlstedt; [2023-05-10]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding the forcing of regional sea level variability is crucial as many people all over the world live along the coasts and are endangered by extreme sea levels and the global sea level rise. The adding of fresh water into the oceans due to melting of the Earth’s land ice together with thermosteric changes has led to a rise of the global mean sea level with an accelerating rate during the twentieth century.

  3. 2. Urban flood risk mitigation : A perspective form urban planning

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Författare :Andreas Brandow; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Urban indicators; Resilience; Urban flooding; Flood protection and mitigation; Luleå;

    Sammanfattning : Due to the global warming and climate change, an increased frequency of high intensity rains and other disasters are expected all around the world. To predict this change in climate the IPCC has created a set of climate scenarios, RCPs, that will try to predict the future climate based on how much we are able to adapt and mitigate the effects we as a species have on the environment.

  4. 3. Sink or Swim: Sea Level Rise Adaptation in Venice, Italy : A case of citizen non-participation

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

    Författare :Jesper Karlsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :civic capacity; climate change; Gioia methodology; MOSE; project development; public involvement;

    Sammanfattning : Due to global warming, sea levels will irreversibly continue to rise around the world throughout this century. Therefore, coastal urban communities will need to adapt to new environmental challenges, such as more frequent and intense flood events. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Shifting shorelines : reflection on visulization of sea level rise

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Författare :Essi Seiskari; [2023]
    Nyckelord :sea level rise; climate adaptation; managed retreat; visualization;

    Sammanfattning : Sea level rise is predicted to radically transform coastal landscapes in the coming centuries. Caused by climate change, the impact is already felt in low-lying communities around the world. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Rising seas, sinking futures
