  1. 11. Assessment of future climate and land use changes on streamflow and phosphorus transport in a Swedish agricultural catchment

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment

    Author : Clara Laguna Marin; [2022]
    Keywords : surface water modelling; phosphorus; suspended sediment; climate change scenarios; socio-economic scenarios; INCA-PEco;

    Abstract : Despite efforts to reduce nutrient excess in surface waters in the last decades, eutrophication continues to be an important environmental problem in Europe. The presence of excess phosphorus (P) in waters, together with nitrogen (N), is one of its main causes. READ MORE

  3. 12. The role of bed sediments for fractionation of phosphorus in remediated ditches in Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Emma Ryding; [2022]
    Keywords : Phosphorus fractionation; agricultural stream; sediment; two-stage ditch; eutrophication;

    Abstract : Sweden’s environmental quality objectives “A varied agricultural landscape” and “Zero eutrophication”, aims to ensure food production while reducing negative impact from fertilizers on the environment. The input ceilings of nutrient concentrations in the Baltic Sea are still critical. READ MORE

  4. 13. Improving stream flow estimation in a montane rainforest stream in Costa Rica : The impact of adding a high flow estimation

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Martin Dahlin; [2022]
    Keywords : Streamflow information; Manning s estimation; rating curve; hydrographs; Vattenföring; avbördningskurva; hydrograf; Mannings ekvation;

    Abstract : A key piece of information necessary for water management is accurate streamflow information. However, the available data and resources for gathering information vary around the world. READ MORE

  5. 14. An evaluation of deep learning models for urban floods forecasting

    University essay from KTH/Geoinformatik

    Author : Yang Mu; [2022]
    Keywords : Urban flooding forecasting; Convolutional neural networks; Deep learning; Physically-based simulation; Recurrent neural network; Stadsöversvämningsprognoser; konvolutionella neurala nätverk; djupinlärning; fysiskt baserad simulering; återkommande neurala nätverk;

    Abstract : Flood forecasting maps are essential for rapid disaster response and risk management, yet the computational complexity of physically-based simulations hinders their application for efficient high-resolution spatial flood forecasting. To address the problems of high computational cost and long prediction time, this thesis proposes to develop deep learning neural networks based on a flood simulation dataset, and explore their potential use for flood prediction without learning hydrological modelling knowledge from scratch.

  6. 15. Contribution to Sustainable Water Management in oligotrophic mountainous rivers : Sunlight induced inactivation of Escherichia coli under the influence of physicochemical parameters water-color and water depth

    University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för ekoteknik- och hållbart byggande

    Author : Béla efternamn:Szépfalusi Student 1; [2022]
    Keywords : bacterial inactivation; E. coli; UV-radiation; water color; water depth; sustainable water management;

    Abstract : Water is essential for life on earth. Human society is challenged to sustain sufficient water quantity of good quality. This objective is reflected in sustainable development goal 6, “clean water and sanitation”. READ MORE
