  1. 1. The visibility of stellar transients in the Galactic Centre

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

    Author : Jonathan Ström; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : A semi-analytical simulation was developed to evaluate the K-band magnitudes of Red Giants [0.96 - 1.02 M⊙] orbiting the supermassive black hole in the galactic centre. The model assumed star formation between 10-12 Gyrs ago and by following the IMF and applying a random age condition, a stellar population was created. READ MORE

  3. 2. Measuring copper abundances in the Galactic Bulge

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

    Author : Nikolei Höglinger; [2024]
    Keywords : Copper; Galaxy: abundances; Galaxy: bulge; Chemical Evolution; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Context: The chemical evolution of Cu in the Galactic bulge have been studied in a few studies using red giant branch stars, but the ages of individual red giant stars are difficult to determine. In addition, the bulge has been a challenging region of the Milky Way galaxy to obtain high-resolution spectra of stars, except when observing through certain few small fields into the bulge that are known to have low extinction.

  4. 3. Enhanced Vulnerability and Capacity Assessments as an organisational learning bridge for resilience building? A case study of Red Cross National Societies in the Caribbean

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Gwenaëlle Delcourt; [2023]
    Keywords : Organisational learning; resilience; vulnerability and capacity assessments VCAs ; red cross red crescent; Disaster risk management; MMO; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : Adaptive capacity based on organisational learning (OL) is at once a critical imperative facing humanitarian organisations in their mission to save lives and support communities most at risk; and inherently evidenced as an enduring weakness over the past decades. Vulnerability and Capacity Assessments (VCA) are community-based risk assessments established for their utility in supporting communities’ iterative learning. READ MORE

  5. 4. Assessing the Practical Use of an Integrated Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation Approach: A Case Study on Bangladesh

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Pim Roupé; [2022]
    Keywords : Disaster Risk Reduction; Climate Change Adaptation; Disaster Management; Climate Change; Natural Hazards; Resilience;

    Abstract : The ambition of this thesis is to fulfill two aims. The first aim is theory development, by presenting a theoretical framework where climate change adaptation (CCA) and disaster risk reduction (DRR) are combined. The second aim is empirical, where the theoretical framework is used to analyze an example of DRR with an ambition to include CCA. READ MORE

  6. 5. A GIS-Based Localization of Regional Sorting Centers : A Case Study of Swedish Red Cross

    University essay from KTH/Geoinformatik

    Author : Alexandros Kaltsidis; [2022]

    Abstract : The Swedish Red Cross (SRK) plays an important humanitarian role by selling donated clothes in order to collect more money to help people in need. An extended network of 251 second-hand stores is built nationwide, where donors leave their clothes and buyers can buy them at competitive prices. READ MORE
