  1. 16. Characterization of Landscape Structures and Precipitation in relation to Flooding events in Pampa Deprimida : A Minor Field Study in Argentina

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

    Author : Linnea Svärd; [2023]
    Keywords : Pampeana hydrology; flood risk mapping; runoff; infiltration; precipitation; SCSCN; remote sensingg; Hydrologi på Pampas; kartläggning av översvämningsrisker; avrinning; infiltration; nederbörd; SCS-CN; fjärranalys; Hidrología de la Pampa Deprimida; cartografía del riesgo de inundaciones; escorrentía; infiltración; precipitación; SCS-CN; sensores remotos;

    Abstract : The purpose of the thesis is to characterize flood events within the agricultural fields of flooding Pampa in Argentina. The characterization divides the flat landscape into flood prone areas and endeavour at linking driving factors to flood response based on past events. READ MORE

  3. 17. Evaluating the impact of agriculture on albedo using Sentinel-2 data in southern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Victor Andréasson; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical geography and ecosystem science; Remote sensing; Sentinel-2; Albedo; Agriculture; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The climate impact of food production plays a big part in the anthropogenic climate impact. Mitigation strategies from this sector are hence of great importance. One area which mainly has been used to calculate climate impact is albedo, the overall reflectance of incoming radiation in all directions. READ MORE

  4. 18. 3-30-300 som metod för en grönare stad : en jämförelse mellan Möllevången Väst och Söderkulla i Malmö

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Author : Julia Henrohn; Nora Juneholm; [2023]
    Keywords : 3-30-300; stadsplanering; grönplanering; förtätning; grönstruktur; urban miljö; hållbara städer;

    Abstract : Urbaniseringen fortsätter i Sverige och Malmö är den stad där befolkningen ökar mest i hela landet. Genom ett förtätat stadsplaneringsideal, där fler människor och funktioner ska få plats, effektiviseras markanvändningen och exploatering på värdefull natur- och jordbruksmark minskar. READ MORE

  5. 19. Holocene vegetation change and its correlates in fennoscandia

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Raphaela Infanger; [2022-10-21]
    Keywords : Fennoscandia; Holocene; human impact; climate impact; vegetation change; fossil pollen;

    Abstract : Climatic and anthropogenic legacy has differently impacted vegetation and its community composition. To determine the extent and origin of changes across Fennoscandia, representative regions were defined that entailed sufficient spatial and temporal data. READ MORE

  6. 20. Evaluation of the variation in albedo over snow-covered forest in Northern Sweden and Finland

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Klara Hugosson; [2022-05-20]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The effect of albedo variability induced by meteorological parameters in snow-covered forested areas at local scale is poorly known. Few meteorological stations measure albedo, even though the effect on albedo caused by land use changes is well known. READ MORE
