  1. 1. Long-term Water Balance of an Inland River Basin in an Arid Area, North-Western China

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Shahab Moghadas-Bidabadi; [2009]
    Keywords : Teknik; Technological sciences; Arid Zone; Geographic Information System GIS Hydrologic Modeling System HEC-HMS ; Water Balance; Hydrogeology; geographical and geological engineering; Hydrogeologi; teknisk geografi; teknisk geologi; Civil engineering; hydraulic engineering; offshore technology; soil mechanics; Väg- och vattenbyggnadsteknik; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : China, like many other countries in the region suffers from the water scarcity and problems of desertification and land degradation. One of the most useful approaches to deal with such a problem in the region is water balance study and analysis of different components involved to get an overview of the water supply and demand of the region so that engineers and policy makers can use that in their decision.

  3. 2. Shoreline Change in the Kunduchi Beach Area, Tanzania

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Björn Almström; Lisa Larsson; [2008]
    Keywords : teknisk geografi; teknisk geologi; longshore sediment transport; Kunduchi; Shoreline changes; Tanzania; GIS analysis; DSAS; EBED; Hydrogeology; Hydrogeologi; geographical and geological engineering; Civil engineering; hydraulic engineering; offshore technology; soil mechanics; Väg- och vattenbyggnadsteknik; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Coastal erosion is a global problem affecting almost every country in the world having a coastline. This problem is expected to accelerate in the future due to the global warming, which most likely will cause a sea level rise and increase the number of storm events around the globe. READ MORE

  4. 3. Submarine Groundwater Discharge Estimation from Kikuchi River Basin to the Ariake Bay, Japan

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Mamoru Katsuki; [2008]
    Keywords : hydrological model; Groundwater flow model; numerical simulation; submarine groundwater discharge; water balance analysis; Civil engineering; soil mechanics; offshore technology; hydraulic engineering; groundwater recharge; Väg- och vattenbyggnadsteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) affects environmental conditions in semi-enclosed sea areas. Semi-enclosed areas often experience eutrophication caused by excess nutrient transport from agricultural areas. However, it is often unclear how much the nutrients that are transported through the groundwater discharge. READ MORE

  5. 4. Modelling flow detention through temporary storage in the landscape using Artificial Neural Networks - A case study of Lake Mälaren

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Arvid Wikström; [2008]
    Keywords : offshore technology; Flood mitigation; Eco-flooding; Flow detention modelling; Artificial Neural Networks; Lake Mälaren; Väg- och vattenbyggnadsteknik; hydraulic engineering; Civil engineering; soil mechanics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Several strategies can be used to mitigate flood risks, many of them involves construction of embankments around threatened locations or attempts to spread the flood wave in time and space. In this thesis, the effects of a mitigation strategy called eco-flooding are studied in the catchment of Lake Mälaren. READ MORE

  6. 5. Evaluation of using fine grain size Polonite® as sorbent for retaining phosphorus from wastewater.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Carl Nelin Jensen; [2008]
    Keywords : offshore technology; hydraulic engineering; Civil engineering; Miljöstudier; Environmental studies; Recycling of sorbent and nutrient; Polonite®; Wastewater treatment; Phosphorus reduction; soil mechanics; Väg- och vattenbyggnadsteknik; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : To avoid eutrofication and excessive algal bloms it is necessary to reduce the phosphorus contents in wastewater. Previous wastewater treatment systems often have a good process for phosphorus reduction but in general not the ability to recycle the material and phosphorus for further utilisation after its use in wastewater treatment.
