  1. 1. Modelling of aquifer on Ingarö island : A Steady-State model

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Magnus Dahlberg; [2020]
    Keywords : GMS; MODFLOW; GIS; RCP; climate change; archipelago; esker; glaciofluvial soil;

    Abstract : Värmdö municipality, in the archipelago of Stockholm, has one of Sweden’s fastest growing populations and is a popular location for tourism and summer houses. This puts a lot of pressure on groundwater reservoirs and will likely be even more strained in the future as the climate continues to heat up due to anthropogenic activities. READ MORE

  2. 2. Evaluating the potential of artificial infiltration to increase groundwater storage using MIKE SHE : A case study in northern Storsudret, Gotland

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Sara Schmidt; Per Uppsäll; [2020]
    Keywords : Groundwater modelling; hydrogeology; aquifer assessment; freshwater resources;

    Abstract : The island of Gotland, Sweden, is struggling with supplying the population with freshwater during summers. At the same time as the demand increases during these months, the warm weather and geological conditions prevent sufficient volumes of groundwater to recharge. READ MORE

  3. 3. Artificial Groundwater Injection : A Study of Groundwater Level Control in Swedish Infrastructure Projects

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Martin Kjellberg Skjenken; [2019]
    Keywords : Groundwater; Subsidence; Artificial Recharge; Artificial Groundwater injection; Climate Change; Numerical modelling; Infrastructure and Swedish Transport Administration; Grundvatten; marksättningar; Skyddsinfiltration; Framtida klimatförändringar; Infrastruktur; Numerisk modellering; Trafikverket;

    Abstract : This thesis sets out to increase the knowledge of artificial groundwater injection (AGWI) in Sweden on behalf of the Swedish Transport Administration. This has been done by firstly conducting a literature review which provided the background which comprises mainly groundwater theory and subsidence. READ MORE

  4. 4. Modeling contingency infiltration scenarios in MODFLOW : Stockholm Bypass and tunnel induced groundwater drawdown

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Aslan Abdo; [2019]
    Keywords : tunnel induced groundwater drawdown; MODFLOW; artificial recharge; land subsidence; grundvattenavsänkning; tunnel inläckage; MODFLOW; infiltration; sättning;

    Abstract : Subsurface constructions, such as tunnels, create hydrogeological challenges in mitigating risk of subsidence due to groundwater drawdown. Presenting readily made precautionary mitigation plans, such as strategically planned artificial recharge applications, can help effectivise the mitigation process. READ MORE

  5. 5. River-Aquifer Interaction in the Uppsala Esker - a Modelling Study of a Proposed Drinking Water Production site

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

    Author : Kalle Kjellander; [2018]
    Keywords : Surface water-groundwater interactions; MODFLOW-model; Numerical model; Induced infiltration; Hydraulic conductivity; Grund- och ytvattenutbyte; MODFLOW-modell; numerisk modell; inducerad infiltration; hydraulisk konduktivitet;

    Abstract : The Swedish municipalities of Gävle and Älvkarleby need new sources of drinking water as the population grows. Gästrike vatten AB has employed the consultant firm Midvatten AB to assess the possibility of a new groundwater extraction site on the Uppsala esker between Älvkarleby and Skutskär in northern Uppland county.
