1. 1. Modelling the Impact of Climate and Socio-Economic Changes on Nutrient Dynamics in the Catchment of Lake Vomb

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Yanhe Zhou; [2023]
   Keywords : Climate change; hydrological modelling; nutrient; RCP; socioeconomic development; SSP; SWAT; water quality modelling;

   Abstract : Climate change and socio-economic development are greatly affecting the quality of freshwater, especially the excessive accumulation of nutrients (N and P), which eventually leads to the occurrence of eutrophication. Lake Vomb is one of the main sources of drinking water in southern Sweden and the nutrient load from the catchment makes it a eutrophic lake with recurring algal blooms. READ MORE

3. 2. 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

4. 3. Effects of afforestation and crop systems on the water balance in the highlands of Ethiopia

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

   Author : Rebecca Naomi Ter Borg; [2020]
   Keywords : Acacia decurrens; landscape water balance; sediment yield; soil and water conservation; SWAT modelling; water balance partitioning;

   Abstract : In the Upper Blue Nile Basin land use is rapidly changing due to agricultural development and intensification with potential effects on the water availability both up- and downstream. This study is aimed to explore the impact of agricultural land use change on a landscape water balance. READ MORE

5. 4. Modelling the effects of land cover and climate change on watershed hydrology in south-western Ethiopia

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Nicklas Simonsen; [2019]
   Keywords : Hydrological model; Soil Water Assessment Tool; SWAT; Land use Land cover; LULC; climate change; erosion; Ethiopian highlands; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Degradation of the hydrological regime is a pressing issue in the Ethiopian Highlands. It is one of the most rapidly degrading landscapes due to its topography and large amounts of annual precipitation. This problem has been exacerbated through anthropogenic influence from land use/land cover (LULC) and climate change. READ MORE

6. 5. A review on hydrological modelling tools for Nexus assessment : A comparative study

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Emma Brännström; [2019]
   Keywords : Hydrological modelling tool; computer-based models; MIKE SHE; SWAT;

   Abstract : The natural movement of water is known as the hydrological cycle. Many different factors affect the hydrological cycle and the availability of freshwater. The availability of freshwater is essential for many human activities. READ MORE
