1. 1. Blågröna lösningar i en grå stadsdel

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

   Author : Matilda Hiller; Niklas Jönsson; [2024]
   Keywords : Blågrön infrastruktur; dagvattenhantering; regnbäddar; biofilter; svackdiken; permeabel markbeläggning; öppet förstärkningslager; växtval; Gåsebäck; Helsingborg;

   Abstract : Vatten är livsviktigt för allt liv på jorden, men vad händer när vattnet istället för resurs blir en belastning? Stora andelar hårdgjorda ytor i kombination med skyfall kan skapa problem i städer. I miljöer med mycket asfalt eller betong, förändras vattnets naturliga kretslopp. READ MORE

3. 2. Bluegreengrey (BGG) solution for future climate and flood-resilient urban drainage network by enhancing the natural hydrological cycle

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Adnan Asif Rifat; [2023]
   Keywords : Bluegreengrey; Sustainable stormwater; Basement flooding; Urban flooding; Pipe Network; BGG; Climate change; Hydrology; Mike .; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. READ MORE

4. 3. How variations of the duration and time to peak of the Chicago Design Storm affect the hydraulic response, as well as the areas contributing to peak runoff, of a synthetic urban catchment area

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

   Author : Oskar Ahlstedt; [2022]
   Keywords : Avrinningsområde; översvämningsmodellering; peak-bidragande område; hydrograf; hyetograf; MIKE 21; regnintensitet; CDS-regn; Chicago Design Storm;

   Abstract : With an expanding urbanization in the world, and thus the expansion of impermeable surfaces, the risk of pluvial floods is an increasing factor that needs to be considered. This, in combination with increasing rain intensities and frequency of rain events indicates a problem both today and for the future. READ MORE

5. 4. 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.

6. 5. Impact of Climate Change on Food Security in Pakistan

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Nationalekonomi

   Author : Tehmina Batool; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Worldwide Climatic variations are dramatically causing food insecurity, especially, in terms of food production. This study designs an economic model to analyze the inferences of climatic variabilities in defining the food security of the Pakistan. READ MORE
