  1. 6. Longshore Sediment Transport Along the Coast of Ystad Municipality

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Isa Berin; Johanna Jacobson Löwdin; [2022]
    Keywords : Coastal erosion; sediment dynamics; longshore sediment transport; CERC; shoreline change; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The coast of Ystad municipality has historically been subject to erosion, leading to the loss of recreational areas and near-beach structures, consequently resulting in the implementation of mitigating measures. With the ongoing climate change, erosion is expected to continue. READ MORE

  3. 7. Den flytande ön : gestaltningsförslag för en flytande modul med ekologiska förstärkningsåtgärder vid Norr Mälarstrand i Stockholm

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Author : Anna Joos; [2022]
    Keywords : biodiversitet; ekologiska förstärkningsåtgärder; exploatering; förhöjda havsnivåer; förtätning; förlorade landytor; hållbara städer; klimatförändringar; urbanekologi; vattenkvalitet;

    Abstract : Runt om i världen sker idag stora landförluster till följd av förtätning av städer, exploatering av natur och land, förhöjda havsnivåer och kusterosion. Det resulterar i större konkurrens om de resterande landytorna; där de gröna ytorna ofta prioriteras lågt. Minskade naturarealer leder till försvagade habitat och ekosystem. READ MORE

  4. 8. Adaptation or Maladaptation? : A holistic approach to mangrove forestry to protect against climate change in Char Kukri Mukri, Bangladesh.

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Tema Miljöförändring

  6. 10. An automated unmanned aerial vehicle – structure from motion pipeline to create analysis-ready digital surface models for coastal monitoring

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Maximilian Rafael Huber; [2021]
    Keywords : physical geography; ecosystem analysis; geomatics; GIS; UAV; structure-from-motion; machine learning; coastal monitoring; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Anthropogenic pressure on coastal areas continues to increase, thus intensifying coastal erosion. Coastal monitoring programs are therefore essential to prevent severe ecosystem and economic consequences. Successful coastal monitoring schemes require highly accurate analysis-ready Digital surface models (DSMs) derived using the same workflow. READ MORE
