6. Investigating surface spring snow : Changes in the isotopic composition and conductivity along an orographic precipitation gradient in northern Fennoscandia
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskapAbstract : Stable isotopes of oxygen (O18) and hydrogen (H2) are used as proxies of past climates when ice preserved in the polar icecaps. The main assumption when doing paleoclimatic reconstructions using these isotopes is that the isotopic composition of the snow that turned into ice reflect the present temperature of the planet during deposition.

7. Bluegreengrey (BGG) solution for future climate and flood-resilient urban drainage network by enhancing the natural hydrological cycle
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresursläraAbstract : A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. READ MORE

8. Characterization of Landscape Structures and Precipitation in relation to Flooding events in Pampa Deprimida : A Minor Field Study in Argentina
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraAbstract : The purpose of the thesis is to characterize flood events within the agricultural fields of flooding Pampa in Argentina. The characterization divides the flat landscape into flood prone areas and endeavour at linking driving factors to flood response based on past events. READ MORE

9. Comparison of Particle Tracking and ADCP Including Construction of the Rating Curve at Islandsfallet
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : The objective of this study is to compare Large-Scale Particle Image Velocimetry (LSPIV) to conventional methods for measuring discharge. Furthermore, to use the discharge data to create a rating curve at Islandsfallet in Uppsala. To measure discharge, on-site measurements have conventionally been done. READ MORE

10. Med ån som följeslagare i ett föränderligt landskap : en studie om vattenvård som medel för att tillgängliggöra rekreation i det stadsnära odlingslandskapet
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)Abstract : I detta examensarbete behandlas vattenvårdsinsatser som medel för att tillgängliggöra rekreation i det stadsnära odlings- landskapet. Vattenvårdsinsatserna grundar sig i att hantera den historiska dränering och utdikning som förändrat vattenmassor i stor del av det svenska odlingslandskapet. READ MORE
