11. More crop for every drop - A holistic analysis of Indian water stress through Virtual Water Trade and Policy
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionenSammanfattning : ndia ranges among the countries experiencing most water stress in recent years, while being a major virtual water net exporter. The country’s position relative to its water sources exacerbated since its trade liberalization in the early 1990’s, which calls for a future national water crisis. LÄS MER
12. An Interactive Eye-tracking based Adaptive Lagrangian Water Simulation Using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Sammanfattning : Many water animations and simulations usually depend on time consuming algorithms that create realistic water movement and visualization. However, the intrigue for realistic, real-time and interactive simulations is steadily growing for, among others, the game and Virtual Reality industry. LÄS MER
13. Climate Adaptation Strategies and Projections on Water Discharge in the Euphrates-Tigris River Basin
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresursläraSammanfattning : The main aim of this thesis is to analyse the climate adaptation strategies regarding water resources in the regional context of the three major riparians of the Euphrates and Tigris rivers: Turkey, Syria and Iraq. The objectives are: to base the analysis on the criteria benefit, consequences and limits to the social as well as the technical factors affecting the water availability and to use WW-HYPE, which is a HBV based model, to support literature on climate projections in the area.

14. Global Virtual Water Trade, 1990-2015: Assessing Virtual Water Trade Patterns between High Income, Upper-Middle Income, Lower-Middle Income and Low Income Countries
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionenSammanfattning : Due to globalization, increasing amounts of water are traded across borders as virtual water embodied in traded products. The thesis traces global water trade patterns at different levels of income between 1990 and 2015 in order to test whether developed countries outsource their water-intensive production to less developed countries increasing global water use in the process.

15. Land Rover BackPacker : A minimal travel vehicle
Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Designhögskolan vid Umeå universitetSammanfattning : How can reductionism lead to a greater experience and add to the appeal of a product? The Land Rover BackPacker is a minimalistic travel vehicle that questions the space and the complexity needed in a vehicle while exploring the world 4x4 inspired by the necessity of reduction in today's consumerist world to fight climate change and the freedom of travelling light. Its open design creates an interactive space with it's surroundings for 2 people which is created in a multifunctional approach to be more then a car but a space to hang out and a place to sleep in the wild.
