  1. 11. Evaluation of Streamflow Predictions in an Ungauged Swedish Catchment : A Study of Håga River

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

    Author : Hanna Pierrau; [2022]
    Keywords : Hydrology; Predictions in ungauged basins; Hydrological signatures; rainfall-runoff modelling; HBV; S-HYPE; hydrologi; uppskattningar i områden utan mätstation; hydrologiska signaturer; modellering; HBV; S-HYPE;

    Abstract : The Håga river, located west of the Swedish city Uppsala, is currently without a proper gauging station. Knowing the streamflow is nonetheless important to, for example, be able to calculate the nutrient transport in the river. READ MORE

    Abstract : Paramos are unique ecosystems situated in the tropical Andes at an elevation of 2800-4800 meters above sea level. They are home to a variety of endemic species and have a great water regulating capacity and supply around 80 % of the population in Colombia with freshwater. READ MORE

  4. 13. The intraspecific drought tolerance of Betula pendula Roth. : ecotypic aptitude as tree selection criteria for the urban landscape

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)

    Author : Simon Hannus; [2021]
    Keywords : Betula pendula; clinal variation; drought tolerance; ecosystem services; ecotypes; potential evapotranspiration; turgor loss point; urban forestry; urban resilience; urban tree selection;

    Abstract : The ecosystem services provided by urban trees are substantial contributors to the quality of urban living, and their environmentally regulating capabilities are increasingly regarded as integral in order to efficiently secure urban resilience, by ameliorating the human and material impacts of extreme weather events. However, current trends of urban development presents challenges of how to preserve urban greenery ecosystem functioning, particularly in light of the ongoing climate change; which also has brought forth the importance of taxonomically diverse urban forests, to mitigate risks of catastrophic tree loss associated with these conditions.
