3. 22. GIS-based multi-criteria analysis framework for geofence planning of dockless bike-sharing

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Max Mangold; [2021]
   Keywords : Geography; Geomatics; GIS-MCDA; multi-criteria analysis; bike-sharing; dockless; geofence; AHP; VIKOR; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Dockless bike-sharing is growing in many cities around the globe. At the same time issues related to this type of urban mobility such as illegal or improper parking behavior are becoming more frequent. The implementation of parking zones delineated by geofences has been discussed as a possible solution for these issues. READ MORE

4. 23. Wave Damping by Vegetation at Bunkeflo Salt Meadows - Applying an empirical model based on plant biomass

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Charlie van Houwelingen; Timothy Ley; [2021]
   Keywords : Coastal protection; nature-based solutions; salt marshes; salt meadows; sea level rise; wave damping; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Future sea level rise due to climate change increases the risk of coastal flooding and thus necessitates the building of dikes and other protective structures. Coastal vegetation can reduce the impact of waves on such structures by dissipating wave energy and hence reduce incoming wave heights. READ MORE

5. 24. The hydrodynamic impacts of Estuarine Oyster reefs, and the application of drone technology to this study

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Oskar Evert Johansson; [2021]
   Keywords : Geography; Geographical Information Systems; GIS; Physical Geography; Oyster Reef; Drone; UAV; Hydrodynamics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : The impacts of climate change are being seen within the estuarine environment through erosion and shoreline retreat, associated with sea-level rise and changes in storm activity. Restoration oyster reefs have been identified as a working-with-nature strategy to protect and restore these shoreline environments, stabilising sediment, and reducing erosion. READ MORE
