  1. 1. Våtmarksbatymetri : djupmätning av 10 anlagda våtmarker i Mälardalen

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment

    Author : Gordon Lindau; [2022]
    Keywords : batymetri; djupmätning; portabelt ekolod; kastbart ekolod; våtmark; fosfordamm;

    Abstract : Tio anlagda våtmarker i jordbrukslandskap i Mälardalen har undersökts i syfte att bestämma vattendjup och volym samt för att studera batymetriska metoder som kan vara lämpliga vid djupmätning av fosfordammar och andra grunda våtmarker. De metoder som använts är portabelt, kastbart ekolod som både släpats bakom kajak och kastats med fiskespö från land samt manuell mätning med mätsticka. READ MORE

  3. 2. Longshore Sediment Transport Along the Coast of Ystad Municipality

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Isa Berin; Johanna Jacobson Löwdin; [2022]
    Keywords : Coastal erosion; sediment dynamics; longshore sediment transport; CERC; shoreline change; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The coast of Ystad municipality has historically been subject to erosion, leading to the loss of recreational areas and near-beach structures, consequently resulting in the implementation of mitigating measures. With the ongoing climate change, erosion is expected to continue. READ MORE

  4. 3. The Blue Ribbon of Akranes, a walk through history

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Ása Katrín Bjarnadóttir; [2022]

It’s difficult to see where one ends and another begins and change in one place has an effect elsewhere. The ocean connects us all and we are depended on its grace to provide us with life. READ MORE

  5. 4. Coastal Response to Sea Level Rise in Ystad Municipality

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Elin Olsson; Sara Engström; [2021]
    Keywords : coastal erosion; Bruun Rule; sea level rise; coastal management; beach morphology; coastal processes; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The globally accelerating sea-level rise poses a problem in coastal areas through, e.g., the erosion of sandy beaches. Due to this, buildings, infrastructure, and other values can be lost, making the future shoreline position important to project in coastal management. READ MORE

  6. 5. The hydrodynamic impacts of Estuarine Oyster reefs, and the application of drone technology to this study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Oskar Evert Johansson; [2021]
    Keywords : Geography; Geographical Information Systems; GIS; Physical Geography; Oyster Reef; Drone; UAV; Hydrodynamics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The impacts of climate change are being seen within the estuarine environment through erosion and shoreline retreat, associated with sea-level rise and changes in storm activity. Restoration oyster reefs have been identified as a working-with-nature strategy to protect and restore these shoreline environments, stabilising sediment, and reducing erosion. READ MORE
