  1. 1. High levels of nickel from sulphide soil in Umeå's raw water : Modeling of groundwater flow and mass transport in Forslunda aquifer

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Merhawi Belai; [2024]
    Keywords : nickel; sulfide; sulphide; groundwater; modeling; mass transport; Feflow; Umeå; nickel; sulfid; monosulfid; grundvatten; modellering; masstransport; Feflow; Umeå;

    Abstract : The raw water in some of Umeå's abstraction wells has shown high nickel levels for more than a decade. The cause has not been determined but there is an investigation from 2010 where the results indicate sulphide clay found adjacent to two basins used for artificial infiltration. READ MORE

  3. 2. Wells of Conflict : A Qualitative Study on How Groundwater Scarcity Affects Communal Conflict

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning

    Author : Rebecca Ander; [2024]
    Keywords : Groundwater; Water Scarcity; Communal Conflict; Ethnic Conflict; Kenya;

    Abstract : The topic of whether resource scarcity affects conflict has for long been debated in the field  of peace and conflict studies. This study aimed to understand if there is a correlation between groundwater scarcity and communal conflict by answering the research question ‘How does groundwater scarcity affect communal violence in the Arid and Semi-Arid Land of Kenya’.

  4. 3. Modeling PFAS Transport in Groundwater - Exploring current approaches and evaluating parameter importance

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI); Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi

    Author : Clara Eklund; [2023]
    Keywords : PFAS; Groundwater modeling; FEFLOW; Python; Machine learning; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : PFAS contamination in drinking water is a current problem, and new regulations for drinking water limits were recently implemented in each member country of the EU in January this year. Understanding the spread of PFAS in groundwater is therefore important to prevent it from reaching drinking water sources. READ MORE

  5. 4. Modelling the Water Table in a Bog

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Tobias Bowley; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Over the past five years, an ongoing study at INES, Lund University, have examined the encroachment of trees and vegetation into a bog ecosystem in northern Scania, Sweden. While several factors have been identified as contributing to this ecological transformation, including, nutrient availability, and climate, the hydrological aspect remains a key area of investigation.

  6. 5. A coupling method using CFD, radiative models and a surface model to simulate the micro-climate

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Joseph Vernier; [2023]
    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamics; Fluid Mechanics; Numerics; Micro-climate modeling; Radiation; Crop modeling; Photovoltaic panels;

    Abstract : The increasing demand for energy, depletion of fossil fuels, rising global warming, and greenhouse gas emissions have stimulated the need for widespread development and adoption of renewable energy sources (RES) worldwide. Among these sources, solar energy has emerged as a major contender to meet the growing demand. READ MORE
