1. Assessing the Effectiveness of Urban Trees with Skeletal Soils in Flood Risk Mitigation
University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikAbstract : With increased urbanization and climate change, heavy rainfall events and urban floods are becoming more frequent. To meet the demands for effective climate adaptation strategies and mitigation measures, Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) have received increased attention. READ MORE

2. 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 AssessmentAbstract : 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. Application of HEC-HMS modelling on River Storån,Model evaluation and analysis of the processes by using soil moisture accounting loss method
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresursläraAbstract : River Storån, a major tributary of Lake Bolmen which is a source of fresh water to Skåne county of Sweden is found to alter the color of water in the lake due to the presence of natural organic matter. Hence it is of utmost importance to study the river to understand the dynamics of generation and flow of water from the river to the lake. READ MORE

4. Assessment of the water storage potential at Lake Mjölhatteträsk on Storsudret, Gotland
University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikAbstract : During the recent summers, Gotland has suffered from drinking water shortage and due to the climate change, the water shortage can possible increase in the future. To find a solution, the Swedish Environmental Research Institute IVL and Region Gotland are going to build a testbed at Storsudret located on the south of Gotland, to investigate different sustainable solutions.

5. Hydrologic modelling of the Zackenberg river basin : an applied study using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Since the 1980s, the Arctic has experienced an amplified warming of more than twice the rate of the global-mean, leading to large-scale changes in the Arctic hydrologic system, ultimately having cascading feedbacks on the global climate. However, few of today’s distributed models manage to capture the complex processes in Arctic hydrology, and therefore, the aim of this thesis was to evaluate the usage of the distributed Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model, to see whether it could capture the different surface water paths and processes characterizing the Arctic water cycle.
