1. 21. Climate change impacts on water resources of the Ganges : Suitable adaptation options for agriculture in the Indian-Himalayan region

   University essay from KTH/Industriell ekologi

   Author : Hedvig Winther; [2017]
   Keywords : Climate change; water flows; Indian-Himalayan region; Ganges; adaptation; hydro-climatic modelling; stakeholder participatory methods; Klimatförändringar; vattenflöden; Indiska Himalaya; Ganges; anpassning; hydroklimatisk modellering; intressentdeltagande metoder;

   Abstract : Climate change is affecting several environmental factors and together with socio-economic changes put high pressure on water resources. Climate change manifest itself through increasing temperatures and changes in precipitation patterns and intensities, with knock-on effects on hydrologically-relevant parameters such as water flows, evapotranspiration rates, glacial melt etcetera, all of which have already been observed in the recent past and are predicted to continue in the future.

3. 22. Analyzing Meteorological Relationships to Aerosols in China

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik

   Author : Carl Svenhag; [2017]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Meteorological conditions are influenced everyday by air-bound aerosols and pollution in the atmosphere, and understanding these processes from micro to synoptic scale, is essential for forecasting and creating high resolution weather models. In this study, three different experimental weather models are analysed to provide some understanding on how various meteorological parameters are influenced by modelling atmospheric aerosols.

4. 23. Using Bulk XRF-Analysis of Chinese Loess to Determine High-Resolution Records of Dust Provenance

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Alexandra Engström Johansson; [2017]
   Keywords : dust; provenance; elemental ratios; Chinese Loess Plateau;

   Abstract : Understanding the sources of the dust that forms the extensive loess deposits on the Chinese Loess Plateau is crucial for reconstructing atmospheric circulation patterns and dust pathways. Dust sources are however highly debated, mainly due to the low resolution of many records and the often ambiguous nature of geochemical proxies. READ MORE

5. 24. Concentrations and riverine massflows of geothermal arsenic. : Case study: Jemez River, NM, USA

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

   Author : Lina Hansson; [2016]
   Keywords : arsenic; speciation; river discharge; fault;

   Abstract : Geothermal arsenic (As) and its inorganic species transformation in river systems are of global concern, since As has a potential negative impact on human health and ecosystems. Periods of increased precipitation may change As concentrations and As partitioning in streams, due to elevated water tables, increased runoff generation, dilution, and interactions with sediment.
