  1. 1. Terrestrial Reorientation of Managing - Blockchain Projects - for Sustainability

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för Urbana Studier (US)

    Author : Joe Storm; [2022]
    Keywords : Climate change; management; post qualitative inquiry; Bruno Latour; sustainability; organization; blockchain; economy; Gaia; Terrestrial; New Climatic Regime;

    Abstract : This thesis is a post qualitative inquiry that explores a different research approach concerning climate change and what Bruno Latour calls the Terrestrial. We are now living in a New Climatic Regime or locked-down age, according to Latour, where life continues – yet is ever more suspended and disorienting. READ MORE

  3. 2. Extreme value modeling of wind effect on dune erosion on the Coast of ̈Angelholm

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Lionel Arpin-Pont; [2020]
    Keywords : Erosion; Wind speed; Extreme value theory; Block maxima; Peaks over threshold; Copula; Husler-Reiss; Dependence function.; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : The movement of the coast line, due to erosion in one direction or aggregation in theother is a natural process as waves, wind as well as the geological nature of the coast itselfare affecting it. Sand dunes are the main protection coasts have at their disposal againstfloods during storm surges or from more passive but long range rainfalls. READ MORE

  4. 3. Impact of Extreme Rainfall Event over Swedish Urban Catchments : A study on catchment characterization in the context of Aerial Reduction Factor and storm movement

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Md Didarul Alam Tusher; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The design practices of urban hydraulic structures are required to be based on enough safety measures in addition to cost efficiency for sustainable development. Overestimation of catchment runoff generated from a storm event can increase the project cost unnecessarily. READ MORE

  5. 4. The influence of temporal rainfall distribution and storm movement on flood depth in urban pluvial cloud burst modeling

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Michael Henrich; [2019]
    Keywords : Pluvial flooding; cloud burst; flood modeling; MIKE 21; temporal distribution; storm movement; areal reduction factors; ARFs; hyetograph; design storm; CDS; Pluviala översvämningar; skyfall; översvämningsmodellering; MIKE 21; regnmönstrets tidsfördelning; molnrörelse; areal reduktion av nederbörd; ARFs; hyetograph; typregn; CDS;

    Abstract : Pluvial floods are the most difficult and to date least investigated phenomena in urban hydrology. While efforts are being made to increase the knowledge base concerning this type of flooding, a large part of the difficulty lies in the nature of the precipitation. READ MORE

  6. 5. Evaluation of X-band Weather Radar Data in Urban Hydrology

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Alva Kalm; Camilla Hedell; [2019]
    Keywords : Urban hydrology; X-band radar; Bias correction; Error analysis; Neural network; Scania.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Throughout history it has always been crucial to accurately measure, track, and predict precipitation. This has been done using various methods with varying degrees of precision. As the world evolves and as urban areas expand, it has become more apparent that there is a need for a more efficient way to observe and record precipitation. READ MORE
