  1. 1. Impact of wetland restoration on river discharge - A case study of Bråån, Skåne, Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Ardis Luda; [2023]
    Keywords : wetlands; wetland restoration; HYPE model; river discharge; Sweden; land use change; flooding; hydrological modeling; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Land use change is a factor not often considered when modeling river discharge in regard to future flood risk. The restoration of wetlands is an ongoing land use change which affects water storage capacity in the soils of a catchment and could lead to lower flows in rivers. READ MORE

  3. 2. Surface and Subsurface Flow Connection and Dominating Runoff Mechanism in Hillslope of Tarfala, Northern Sweden.

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

    Author : Namika Maharjan; [2023]
    Keywords : Advanced Terrestrial Simulator ATS ; hillslope connectivity; tracer test; hydrological modeling; parameter analysis; sub artic regions; hillslope hydrology;

    Abstract : The Sub artic regions are becoming increasingly important due to the effects of climate change. In northern Sweden, thawing of permafrost has led to significant increases in annual minimum flows in several catchments. READ MORE

  4. 3. GIS and remote sensing based mapping of microtopography and vegetation composition in a boreal mire complex

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Nils Helge Havertz; [2023]
    Keywords : Microtopography modelling; Remote sensing; Boreal mixed mires; Object Based Image Analysis OBIA ; random forest RF ;

    Abstract : Small scale variations in mire surface elevation referred to as microtopography are fundamental characteristics of mire ecosystems especially in the boreal region. Microtopography commonly classified into hummocks and hollows play a major role in several ecological, hydrological and biogeochemical processes including vegetation composition and carbon and methane dynamics.

  5. 4. Flood mitigation at catchment scale: assessing the effectiveness of constructed wetlands

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Elin Ekström; [2023]
    Keywords : Nature-based solutions; wetlands; catchment; performance indicators; flood management; hydrological modeling; SWAT; Naturbaserade lösningar; våtmarker; avrinningsområde; nyckelindikatorer; översvämningshantering; hydrologisk modellering; SWAT;

    Abstract : Considering the potential for natural wetlands to store and retain water in the landscape,restored and constructed wetlands are increasingly implemented as Nature‐BasedSolutions (NBS) to mitigate downstream flooding. However, there is a frequent lack ofknowledge of the performance of NBS, and particularly wetlands, and how to best selectperformance indicators to measure their effectiveness. READ MORE

  6. 5. SWAT Runoff Modeling and Salinity Estimation in the Odra River Catchment

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Tassilo Thebe; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In 2022, a significant fish die-off happened in the Odra River due to a bloomof the toxic gold algae species Prymnesium parvum, which occurs in saline andwarm waters. This event is seen as a major ecological disaster in recent Europeanriver incident history. READ MORE
