  1. 11. Twenty-First Century Drought Projections in Swedish Catchments

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Elise Jonsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Drought; climate change; drought index; climate models; catchments; societal functions; Torka; klimatförändring; torkindex; klimatmodeller; avrinningsområde; samhällsfunktioner;

    Abstract : Droughts can have far-reaching and devastating effects on all sectors of society and ecology and future changes to drought and flood patterns are uncertain. This uncertainty has led to a lax response from local officials in dealing with mitigation and adaptation, particularly in Sweden. READ MORE

  5. 14. 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

  6. 15. Characterization and modeling of hydrology and climatology in paramo ecosystems in Colombia : A study of the paramos and climate change impact on these ecosystems as a water resource
