   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

   Author : Maximiliano Andrés Oportus Foster; [2023]
   Keywords : Micropollutants; water reuse; wastewater treatment models; ozonation; computer modeling; water and environmental engineering; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Proper management of water resources is a key to climate change adaptation and resilience in modern societies. Adequate treatment of wastewater is essential for ensuring the sustainability of the water cycle and the health of the environment and the ecosystems that inhabit it. READ MORE

4. 3. How do rainfall patterns change microbial induced carbon dynamics in soil?

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

   Author : Maria João Silva; [2023]
   Keywords : drying and rewetting; bacterial growth; fungal growth; annual crops; perennial crops; soil depth; climate change; biotechnology; Biology and Life Sciences;

   Abstract : Climate change is changing the precipitation patterns around the globe, leading to more extreme weather events like severe drought and heavy rainfalls. These events are intrinsically related to soil moisture fluctuations, which strongly modulates carbon fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems. READ MORE

5. 4. Hydraulic Modelling of Eurasian Beaver Structural Modifications: Implications for Evaluating their Contributions to Natural Flood Management in Scotland

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

   Author : Maja Christina Pitcairn; [2023]
   Keywords : Beaver reintroduction; Scotland; Flood risk; Natural flood management; Hydraulic modelling.; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The concurrent climate and biodiversity crises in Scotland necessitate the exploration of ecosystem-based adaptation to simultaneously address increased flood risk and the loss of native species. This research investigated the contributions of Eurasian beaver reintroductions to natural flood management in Scotland. READ MORE

6. 5. Nature Towards Global Climate Change : The Pertinence of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) to Combating Effects of Climate Change on Human Livelihoods on a Global and Country-Specific Context – Zambia as an Example

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för tema

   Author : Dominic Mate Mushashu; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : As a result of Climate Change (CC) being one of the most urgent problems facing the twenty-first century, the adoption of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) is receiving international attention in the Global Development studies as a sustainable way to mitigate the negative effects of CC. However, there is a lack of grounded information on their effectiveness and efficiency, particularly in the Global South. READ MORE
