Flood risk assessment using GIS and multi-criteria analysis: a pilot study from Rönne å River basin, Scania, Sweden

Following the flooding event in Ringsjön within the Rönne å river basin in January 2024, this catchment area was utilized for a flood risk assessment. The study focused on the precipitation event during August 2023, known as Storm Hans. The flood risk assessment for the Rönne å catchment area was conducted using multi-criteria analysis (MCA) and geographical information systems (GIS). Seven factor

Assessment of Sediment Transportation Along the Southern and Eastern Coast of Scania, Sweden: A Case Study of Storm Babet

The majority of the coastal area of Scania is highly susceptible to sediment transportation. Due to various influences which are both human induced and natural, the morphology of coastal dunes often alters. Therefore, it is important to assess these changes, especially after major cyclonic storms such as the storm Babet in order to get a comprehensive understanding of the aftermath. The purpose of

Unpacking Sustainability Tensions: A Case Study of a Swedish Single-Use Paper Products and Packaging Company

The following bachelor's thesis investigates the sustainability-related tensions present within the single-use paper products and packaging industry. The addressed research question was structured in consideration of relevant theories, such as the Triple Bottom Line (TBL), Dyllick & Hockerts (2002) sustainability model, stakeholder theory, and paradox management strategy within corporate s

A Study on Language Attitudes towards Swedish and English with Focus on Linguistic Imperialism and Coloniality

The focus of this paper is linguistic imperialism and coloniality. This was researched by investigating the language attitudes of students and alumni in the language teacher programs and their professors at Lund University.

Actors’ opinions of Goodyera repens regarding forestry and conservation in Sweden. A literature review

Biologisk mångfald är ett begrepp som alla känner till och dess betydelse. Det påverkar oss alla på alla möjliga sätt och vi kan enkelt påverka det genom att förändra de minsta sakerna i naturen. Flera arter är extremt känsliga för förändringar och med en mindre förändring i sin miljö försvinner de. Rödlistade arter är arter som är sårbara, orkidé är en art som alla typer är rödlistade i Sverige. The aim of this literature study was to understand the different perspectives of actors within forestry and conservation in terms of the species goodyera repens, and its debate.This study focuses on the red-listed orchid G. repens. A comparation of different actors was done, and it can be seen that the opinions of the actors’ are very different from each other. In summary, the actors who were more

Spatiotemporal dynamics of E-scooter sharing ridership and their associations with the built environment: A Swedish comparative study

E-scooter sharing systems (ESS) have rapidly gained popularity since their introduction in the U.S. in 2017, promoting sustainable urban mobility and offering a new solution to transport systems challenges. However, research on ESS usage in relation to the built environment, particularly in European contexts, is limited, and comparative studies between urban areas of different sizes are not readil

Insights into simple crater formation: The Hummeln impact structure (Småland, Sweden)

Hummeln-strukturen har varit föremål för geologiska undersökningar under nästan två hundra år. Den udda förekomsten av paleozoiska block och en cirkulär djupanomali i den i övrigt förkastningsdominerade sjön har gett upphov till många teorier. Det var faktiskt inte förrän 2015 som fynd av chockad kvarts kunde bekräfta att den märkliga formen skapades av ett meteoritnedslag. Den här studien är den The Hummeln structure has been subject to geological investigations for nearly two centuries. The odd occurrence of Paleozoic blocks and a circular depth-anomaly in the otherwise fault dominated lake sparked plenty of theories. It was however not until 2015 that findings of shocked quartz could confirm that the structure originat- ed from a hypervelocity impact event. The present study is the firs

Co-creating Value in the Scandinavian Welfare System : Matching Elderly Care in a Major Swedish Municipality

The concept of a socially sustainable society is linked to the notion of equal access to high-quality welfare services and an equitable distribution of common resources.
