  1. 1. Assessing the Effectiveness of Urban Trees with Skeletal Soils in Flood Risk Mitigation

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Molly Boberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Flood Management; Climate Adaptation; Nature-Based Solutions NBS ; Urban Trees; Skeletal Soil; Hydrologic Modelling; MIKE; Översvämningshantering; Klimatanpassning; Naturbaserade lösningar; Stadsträd; Skelettjord; Hydrologisk modellering; MIKE;

    Abstract : With increased urbanization and climate change, heavy rainfall events and urban floods are becoming more frequent. To meet the demands for effective climate adaptation strategies and mitigation measures, Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) have received increased attention. READ MORE

  3. 2. Flood mitigation at catchment scale: assessing the effectiveness of constructed wetlands

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Elin Ekström; [2023]
    Keywords : Nature-based solutions; wetlands; catchment; performance indicators; flood management; hydrological modeling; SWAT; Naturbaserade lösningar; våtmarker; avrinningsområde; nyckelindikatorer; översvämningshantering; hydrologisk modellering; SWAT;

    Abstract : Considering the potential for natural wetlands to store and retain water in the landscape,restored and constructed wetlands are increasingly implemented as Nature‐BasedSolutions (NBS) to mitigate downstream flooding. However, there is a frequent lack ofknowledge of the performance of NBS, and particularly wetlands, and how to best selectperformance indicators to measure their effectiveness. READ MORE

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. Improved Understanding of Water Balance in the Malwathu Oya River Basin Using SWAT and Remote Sensing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Alexander Fors; [2022]
    Keywords : actual evapotranspiration; Malwathu Oya; remote sensing; Sri Lanka; SWAT modelling; SWAT calibration; WaPOR; water balance; faktisk evapotranspiration; fjärranalys; Malwathu Oya; Sri Lanka; SWAT-modellering; SWAT-kalibrering; vattenbalans; WaPOR;

    Abstract : As the need for climatic data is increasing in times of climate change and water scarcity, remote sensing (RS) and hydrological modelling are ways to battle these problems, especially in data scarce areas. The actual evapotranspiration (ETa) is one of the key parameters when assessing the water balance and a good estimate of this parameter is thus of great importance. READ MORE

  6. 5. Characterization and modeling of hydrology and climatology in paramo ecosystems in Colombia : A study of the paramos and climate change impact on these ecosystems as a water resource

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

    Author : Lovisa Nilsson; Julia Tholander; [2022]
    Keywords : paramo; hydrology; climate change; precipitation; discharge; modeling; characterization; HBV; ENSO; paramo; hydrologi; klimatförändringar; nederbörd; avrinning; modellering; karaktärisering; HBV; ENSO;

    Abstract : Paramos are unique ecosystems situated in the tropical Andes at an elevation of 2800-4800 meters above sea level. They are home to a variety of endemic species and have a great water regulating capacity and supply around 80 % of the population in Colombia with freshwater. READ MORE
