  1. 21. Modelling of aquifer on Ingarö island : A Steady-State model

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Magnus Dahlberg; [2020]
    Keywords : GMS; MODFLOW; GIS; RCP; climate change; archipelago; esker; glaciofluvial soil;

    Abstract : Värmdö municipality, in the archipelago of Stockholm, has one of Sweden’s fastest growing populations and is a popular location for tourism and summer houses. This puts a lot of pressure on groundwater reservoirs and will likely be even more strained in the future as the climate continues to heat up due to anthropogenic activities. READ MORE

  3. 22. Estimating the probability of levee failure for flood risk mapping : An application to Paglia River

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Theodora Neromylioti; [2020]
    Keywords : Levee failure; inner erosion; piping; backward erosion; seepage; probability of failure; fragility curves; time-dependent failure; hydraulic modelling; flood risk; flood inundation; HEC-RAS;

    Abstract : Climate change results to more extreme and frequent flood events that induce extra risk to flood protection structures such as levees. Thus, estimation of the probability of levee failure is of utmost importance when it comes to structural safety and flood risk assessment. READ MORE

  4. 23. Effects of 100 years of drainage on peat properties in a drained peatland forests in northern Sweden

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

    Author : Mikaela Casselgård; [2020]
    Keywords : ash content; biodiversity; bulk density; carbon; climate; compaction; ditch; drainage; greenhouse gas emissions; groundwater level; isotopes; nitrogen; peatland; restoration;

    Abstract : Natural peatlands provide a small but persistent long-term carbon (C) sink. However, within the last century their extent in Sweden has declined by about 1.5-2.0 million hectares due to drainage activities. READ MORE

  5. 24. The Impact of Boundary Condition on Groundwater Flow : Topography v/s Recharge Controlled

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Harshitha Sridhar; [2020]
    Keywords : Regional Groundwater flow; topography boundary condition; recharge boundary condition; 3D numerical modelling; groundwater flux profile; Regionalt grundvattenflöde; topografi gränsvillkor; laddningsgränsvillkor; numerisk 3D-modellering; grundvattenflödesprofil;

    Abstract : Groundwater interactions at a regional scale are of great importance to characterize subsurface flow processes. Extensive researches have been conducted previously to determine the main factors controlling the regional implications on groundwater flux circulation. READ MORE

  6. 25. Hydraulic modelling of the vulnerability for compounding high sea levels and high river discharge on the Swedish coastline

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Hannah Berk; [2020]
    Keywords : Coastal floods; combined compound flood events; fluvial floods; LISFLOOD-FP; hydraulic modelling; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Coastal floodplains are at risk for combined high discharge and sea level events. Consequences when they occur can be several magnitudes greater than the impact from any isolated event. READ MORE
