High - end climate change scenarios for flood protection of the Netherlands
Introduction Sea level rise, especially combined with possible changes in storm surges and increased river discharge resulting from climate change, poses a major threat for a low-lying delta like the Netherlands. Future flood protection strategies need to take these possible changes into account. Therefore, high-impact, low-probability climate change scenarios for the Netherlands were developed...
متن کاملTidal Flood Risk in London Under Stabilisation Scenarios
The Thames tidal defences are the UK’s most complex and costly flood defence system and of global significance both as a feat of engineering and in terms of the value of assets protected from flooding. The system includes 200km of dikes on the Thames Estuary and the Thames Barrier, built in the 1970s to protect against a storm surge with an annual probability of 0.001 in 2030. Planning is now u...

متن کاملModelling Shea under Climate Scenarios
Distribution data describing the current shea range were obtained from John Hall (University of Wales, Bangor); for details, see previous reports and Vitellaria paradoxa: a monograph (Hall et al., 1996). In 2010, these records were supplemented with shea plot data from Burkina Faso, Mali and Ghana, and with the collection localities of herbarium specimens held at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew ...
متن کاملCancer Risk Assessment in Welder’s Under Different Exposure Scenarios
BACKGROUND Welders exposure to nickel and hexavalent chromium in welding fumes is associated with increase of cancer risk in welders. In this study we calculated cancer risk due to exposure to these compounds in welders. METHODS The role of exposure parameters in welders on derived incremental lifetime cancer risk were determined by stochastic modeling of cancer risk. Input parameters were de...
