  1. 1. Net-zero transition for companies– hindering and supporting factors : The influence of SBTi, sustainability reporting, and ratings

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för kultur och samhälle

    Author : Johanna Flood; [2023]
    Keywords : Net-zero; transition; SBTi; sustainability reporting; sustainability ratings; CDP;

    Abstract : The emissions of greenhouse gases need to be cut by 45% between 2010 and 2030 and reach net-zero by around 2050 (IPCC, 2018) to limit global temperature-rise to 1,5 degrees C. More companies are committing to net-zero emissions, but the overall emissions of greenhouse gases in the world are still going up, and previous research shows that there is an implementation gap and lack of plans in companies.

    Author : Johanna Lind; [2015]
    Keywords : Stormwater modelling; StormTac; Infoworks CS; SuDS Studio; MUSIC; Dagvattenmodellering; StormTac; Infoworks CS; SuDS Studio; MUSIC;

    Abstract : Stormwater is rain, melt and rinse water that temporarily runs off the ground surface. In cities with many impermeable surfaces large amounts of stormwater may be formed. Stormwater is diverted through conduits and ditches to recipients. If the diversion of stormwater is insufficient flooding can occur. READ MORE

  6. 5. Two-dimensional hydraulic modeling for flood assessment of the Rio Rocha, Cochabamba, Bolivia.

    Author : Johanna Myrland; [2014]
    Keywords : Iber; two-dimensional hydraulic model; flood assessment; river dynamics.;

    Abstract : Historically humans have settled in river valleys, which has made flooding a natural hazard for human communities. This is also the situation in the valley of Cochabamba, which is frequently affected by floods. Therefore it is of high relevance to assess and manage the flood risk in order to reduce the impact in the affected areas. READ MORE
