  1. 1. Compound Extreme Wind and Precipitation Events in Europe

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Elisabet Johansson; [2021]
    Keywords : compound extremes; North Atlantic Oscillation; extreme precipitation; extreme wind; sammanfallande extremväderhändelser; extrem nederbörd; extrem vind; Nordatlantiska Oscillationen;

    Abstract : The simultaneous occurrences of several extreme events, known as compound extremes, are often associated with greater impact than univariate extremes. Flooding and windstorms are widespread hazards in Europe which can lead to severe property damage and fatalities. READ MORE

  3. 2. Responses in river water quality during summers with extreme weather periods in Europe

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Felicia Claeson; [2021]
    Keywords : water quality; rivers; Europe; extremeweather periods; drought; heatwave; floods; dissolved oxygen; nitrate; chlorophyll-a; phosphate; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Europe has experienced several climate extremes during the past decades. These extreme events have increased in number and intensity and are projected to further intensify. Previous studies show that heatwaves, drought, and flood can have an impact on water quality in several ways. READ MORE

  4. 3. A Case Study Evaluating the Performance of the NWP model HARMONIE in Simulating Convective Snowbands

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Louise Jungefeldt; [2020]
    Keywords : Convective snow bands; Baltic Sea; HARMONIE; Snökanoner; Östersjön; HARMONIE;

    Abstract : Convective snow bands forming over the Baltic Sea can result in heavy precipitation along the Swedish east coast. Forecasting these events well is of great importance to prevent road traffic injuries, increased pressure at hospitals and cancelled bus traffic. READ MORE

  5. 4. Analysing the vegetation condition during the 2017 and 2018 growing seasons using indices derived from Sentinel-2 data : a case study over southern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Camilla Persson; [2019]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; remote sensing; vegetation indices; drought; Geomatics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The summer of 2017 was climatically close to normal in southern Sweden, whereas the following summer was unusually warm and dry. These two years therefore make an interesting case study for investigating the impact of severe drought on vegetation, particularly when considering that climate change is predicted to lead to an increased frequency of drought events in the study area.
