1. 1. Soil compaction and the effect on infiltration in urban green environments : A study based on field measurements and HYDRUS 1D modelling

   University essay from

   Author : Anastasia Novikova; [2023]
   Keywords : HYDRUS; surface runoff; soil compaction; urban environments;

   Abstract : The consequences of recent flooding and extreme rain events have highlighted the importance of proper urban planning and preventative measures for storm water management. As cities become more urbanized the significance of permeable surfaces such as parks and other urban green spaces increases which infiltrate the water into the ground. READ MORE

3. 2. The Influence of Infiltration Capacity and Antecedent Soil Moisture Conditions on Urban Pluvial Flooding

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

   Author : Disa Barkefors; [2023]
   Keywords : Urban pluvial flood; 2D modelling; MIKE ; urban green area; soil moisture; Chicago Design Storm;

   Abstract : Urban pluvial floods occur during extreme rain events and both occurrence and magnitude of these floods are expected to increase. Preserving or constructing green areas in urban areas has been shown to mitigate and control these floods. READ MORE

4. 3. The influence of spatial variations in rain intensity for cloudburst modelling : a case study of the Gävle cloudburst

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Fanny Jeppsson Stahl; [2022]
   Keywords : Flood modelling; pluvial flooding; spatial variations in rain intensity; design storms; MIKE 21 Flow Model FM; 2D hydraulic modelling; Skyfallsmodellering; pluviala översvämningar; spatiala variationer i regnintensitet; typregn; MIKE 21 Flow Model FM;

   Abstract : With an intensification of heavy rain events in a changing climate and a rapid urbanization the risk for pluvial flooding is increasing in our societies. Pluvial flooding, which is formed when the rainfall rate exceeds the infiltration or drainage rate, can occur rapidly and cause great damages, large economic losses and possibly risk human lives.

5. 4. Sensitivity analysis of a generic urban flow model : 2D modelling with empirical hyetographs and CDS rain

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Julia Granlund; [2022]
   Keywords : Input parameters; initial water content; antecedent moisture content; impervious surfaces; topography; empirical hyetographs; design storms;

   Abstract : Severe flooding events in recent years have underlined the importance of accurate hydrological modelling in urban areas. There are many important parameters relating to both the rainfall distribution and properties of the land on which the rain falls that controls the impacts of the rain event. READ MORE

6. 5. The influence of temporal rainfall distribution and storm movement on flood depth in urban pluvial cloud burst modeling

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Michael Henrich; [2019]
   Keywords : Pluvial flooding; cloud burst; flood modeling; MIKE 21; temporal distribution; storm movement; areal reduction factors; ARFs; hyetograph; design storm; CDS; Pluviala översvämningar; skyfall; översvämningsmodellering; MIKE 21; regnmönstrets tidsfördelning; molnrörelse; areal reduktion av nederbörd; ARFs; hyetograph; typregn; CDS;

   Abstract : Pluvial floods are the most difficult and to date least investigated phenomena in urban hydrology. While efforts are being made to increase the knowledge base concerning this type of flooding, a large part of the difficulty lies in the nature of the precipitation. READ MORE
