1. 1. Exploring patterns in risk factors for bark beetle attack during outbreaks triggered by drought stress with harvester data on attacked trees: A case study in Southeastern Sweden

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Nikolaos Kouskoulis; [2023]
   Keywords : Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Forest ecosystems; Bark beetle outbreak; Southeastern Sweden; Predisposing factors; Triggering factors; Drought stress; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : ABSTRACT Raising temperatures and climate variability have intensified extreme weather events worldwide. These extremes can enhance and trigger possible pest outbreaks. Bark beetle attacks have become a major concern in regions with extensive spruce forest areas. Southeastern Sweden has faced repeated outbreaks resulting in widespread tree loss. READ MORE

3. 2. Efficiency of sustainable urban drainage systems during flash floods

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Snærós Axelsdóttir; [2022]
   Keywords : Bioretention Cell; Rain Garden; Infiltration Trench; Green Roof; Permeable Pavement; Stormwater runoff; Storm Water Management Model;

   Abstract : As the world’s population is migrating more into urban areas, landcover changes follow. Natural pervious areas are being converted to impervious areas, which when subjected to rain generates more stormwater runoff. READ MORE

4. 3. Hydrological modelling and flood risk in a data scarce country: Matola, Mozambique

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Tanja Sellick; [2020]
   Keywords : hydrological modelling; flood hazard; TFM-DYN; climate change; Matola; Mozambique; data scarcity; pluvial flooding; flood risk.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Flooding is a frequent natural hazard globally that is capable of major damage to society. The hazard is especially prevalent in Mozambique, in which many flood events with negative effects have occurred. Disaster risk management and research is therefore important in the country. However, as a developing country, it is subject to data scarcity. READ MORE

5. 4. Impact of Stormwater reuse (Rainwater Harvesting) in areas with combined sewer network

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Roaa Hamid; [2019]
   Keywords : Rainwater harvesting; rooftop runoff; Combined Sewer Runoff- CSO; Toilet Flushing; Garden Irrigation;

   Abstract : Due to the combined effect of intense rainfall events together with the expected impact of climate change, this will put pressure on the existing and future infrastructure for storm water management. One of the challenges related to this is the combined sewer system which is still operating in large areas of many cities worldwide. READ MORE

6. 5. High resolution modelling and analysis of urban flooding

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Angelos Kosmas; [2019]
   Keywords : Tokyo Storm Runoff model; TSR; urban flooding; Augustenborg; stormwater management; pipe networks; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The predictions on climate change and precipitation patterns in the near future, as well as urbanization, lead to higher volumes of runoff, which in turn challenge the sustainability and functionality of urban drainage pipe networks. In order to understand how these changes will affect the existing infrastructure in urban areas, integrated urban water model software are needed to identify effective solutions to minimize urban flooding.
