Till följd av en ökad aktivitet inom internationella nätverk för städer har miljö- och klimatfrågor alltmer kommit att betraktas som karaktäristisk lokala i sin skala. Städer har i sin tur alltmer kommit att betraktas som betydande platser där innovativa lösningar på dessa frågor uppstår. Matfrågor, som tidigare har hanterats som landsbygds- och nationella frågor, har också funnit sin väg till denWith the rescaling of environmental issues through international city networks, cities are increasingly viewed as key sites where innovative solutions are formed. The issues concerning food, which predominantly has been viewed as rural and national issues, have also found its way onto the urban agenda. To provide further understanding of the rescaling process and the role which the city plays in t

Climate change impacts global agricultural systems through changes in average temperature, precipitation quantity and timing, and extreme weather events. Climate change adaptation (CCA) for agricultural systems will be based on changes to farms’ day-to-day operations and long-range planning, governmental policies and regulations, and broad changes in supply chains. The purpose of this thesis is to

Områden där floder mynnar ut i havet kan drabbas av kombinerade händelser av höga havsvattenstånd och höga flöden. När det sker kan konsekvenserna vara betydligt mer omfattande än vid isolerade händelser. För att förbereda samhällen för sådana händelser och undvika katastrofer när de sker är korrekt utfärdade hydrologiska varningar och hydrauliska kartläggningar av stor vikt. Sveriges MeteorologiCoastal floodplains are at risk for combined high discharge and sea level events. Consequences when they occur can be several magnitudes greater than the impact from any isolated event. In this thesis the compounding of different river and coastal flood combinations at three case study sites were studied through the use of 1D/2D-hydraulic modelling software LISFLOOD- FP. The areas were; Henån, Äng
