Estimating Return Levels of Extreme Precipitation Events in the Nordics (MSc thesis presentation)
* Thursday 02 July 2026, 11:15, M3 (M234)
Extreme precipitation events pose substantial risks to infrastructure, urban planning, energy production, and flood management, particularly as climate change is expected to intensify precipitation extremes. This thesis estimates return levels of extreme
daily precipitation events in selected Nordic regions and evaluates how these estimates depend on geographical region, dataset choice, climate model formulation, downscaling approach, and fitted probability distribution. The analysis focuses on annual maximum daily precipitation, Rx1day, in three Nordic case areas: the Norwegian mountain range, the Finnish coastline, and Jämtland in Sweden.

Division!
Thursday 09 July 2026, 15:15, M3 (M234)
Euclids algorithm for division allows us to divide two numbers, keep track of remainders, and recover GCDs. I will discuss other algebraic settings: some rings are known to be Euclidean (meaning they have this algorithm), some are known not to be; many are unknown. I will end with a summary of recent work done in this article that resolves completely the case of cyclic cubic fields:
