The following projects were granted funding in the spring call:
#1: Predicting flooding and changing shorelines for the next 100 years of sea-level rise and changing land-use William Helland-Hansen, Prof., UiB, Dept. of Earth sciences In this project we aim at creating a forward projection of the global land-water interface for the next 100 years, based on extrapolation of global datasets for subsidence, global sea-level change, sediment supply, sediment distribution, climate, and anthropogenic influence acquired over the last four decades. This is important because existing models for future coastline change at a global scale only includes global sea-level rise. The result will be a global model of land-water distribution projected from the present to year 2100 |
#2: Climate Risk and Sustainable Performance Esmeralda Colombo, PhD candidate, UiB, Faculty of Law Build on existing research (Fløttum/Tvinnereim on public perceptions and Esty/Cort (Yale) on metrics that enterprises may apply in due diligence) to establish a network and develop as a young researcher. |
