Infiltration, hydrogeology, and heterogeneity - Management of pressure and flow: A case study for the Varberg tunnel project
(2020-07-08)
This thesis aims to describe a conceptual model of the sedimentology for Swedish (or nordic)
conditions of heterogeneous aquifers but focus is on a case study in Varberg. This to facilitate
the identification of main ...
Resilience and vulnerability in the tourism industry during a pandemic. A comparative study between Finland and Sweden on different geographical scales
(2021-09-14)
In 2020 the Covid-19 virus spread rapidly and became a global pandemic. This had a severe
impact on the tourism industry since travel was halted due to restrictions imposed to stop the
pandemic. This makes it an essential ...
Planetary Boundary Layer Height Variations Over the Tibetan Plateau in Relation to Local Climate Variables and Large-Scale Circulation
(2020-09-09)
The lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere, the planetary boundary layer (PBL), may reach
extremely high above the Tibetan Plateau (TP). Moreover, the TP is a hotspot region for
climate interactions, exerting far-reaching ...

(2020-11-19)
This study investigate the growth trend in an unmanaged Norway spruce forest in Västerbotten
Country, Sweden. The result indicate that relationship between the diameter at breast height
(1.3 m) and height follow a ...
Modelling the global water cycle – the effect of Mg-sursassite on the amount of globally subducted water
(2021-07-05)
Subduction of hydrated lithospheric mantle is the most important process regarding the transfer of significant amounts of water to depths exceeding 350 km. Hence, the interplay of the thermal structure within
the subducted ...
MIGRATION OF FLUID DURING DEFORMATION OF MOLTEN DEUTRATED ICE USING 3D IMAGE ANALYSIS
(2021-09-14)
The behaviour of in ltrating and intergranular
uid in an ice body is essential in
understanding the de
ection of the glacier body. The movement of the
uid during
deformation is most naturally controlled by compressive ...
Saltwater Intrusion in Fractured Crystalline Bedrock Aquifer. - A Case Study on Koster Islands, SW Sweden
(2019-10-30)
Saltwater intrusion (SWI) is one of the significant threats in many coastal areas, mainly driven
by anthropogenic hazards (over-pumping) and climate change (sea level rise). So far, there have
been extensive research and ...
The cooling potential of Rain Gardens and Green Roofs - The influence on energy partitioning in Kvillebäcken, Gothenburg
(2021-07-05)
Blue-green infrastructure (BGI) has become a popular way of combating the effects of climate
change, both regarding heat mitigation and runoff from precipitation. This thesis aims to
understand the potential of two BGI ...
Heat stress at preschool yards. A mixed-method geographical study in Gothenburg, Sweden.
(2019-10-30)
As climate change is predicted to generate higher temperature and more frequent
heat waves and extreme temperature events in Sweden, issues related to heat will
be more accentuated in the future. Children are both ...
