16. The influence of temporal rainfall distribution and storm movement on flood depth in urban pluvial cloud burst modeling
University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikAbstract : Pluvial floods are the most difficult and to date least investigated phenomena in urban hydrology. While efforts are being made to increase the knowledge base concerning this type of flooding, a large part of the difficulty lies in the nature of the precipitation. READ MORE

17. Flow simulation in MIKE URBAN based on high-resolution X-band radar data
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresursläraAbstract : Radar har använts sedan 1940-talet för att mäta och övervaka nederbörd. Under de senaste åren har X-bandradarn visat sig vara ett verktyg som kan förbättra indata till avrinningsmodellering inom urbana avrinningsområden. Detta tack vare sin höga upplösning i tid och rum jämfört med andra radarer som används vid nederbördsmätning. READ MORE

18. The influence of storm movement and temporal variability of rainfall on urban pluvial flooding : 1D-2D modelling with empirical hyetographs and CDS-rain
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraAbstract : Pluvial floods are formed directly from surface runoff after extreme rain events. Urban areas are prone to suffer from these floods due to large portions of hardened surfaces and limited capacity in the stormwater infrastructure. Previous research has shown that catchment response is influenced by the spatio-temporal behaviour of the rainstorm. READ MORE

19. Planning support for reducing risks related to flooding : A case study of flood response in Kista residential area and Igelbäcken stream, Sweden
University essay from KTH/Mark- och vattenteknikAbstract : Flooding has been identified as the most widespread and most frequently occurring natural disaster by the United Nation. Sweden is no exception when it comes to being affected by flooding, and several major flood events have been seen in recent years. READ MORE

20. Urban flood modelling : a GIS based approach in Lomma, Skåne region
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Urbanization triggers flooding because it replaces pervious land surfaces with impervious surfaces that have less capacity to infiltrate and store water into the ground. Detailed analysis and modelling of flooding in urban areas can be performed with GIS-based distributed hydrological models. READ MORE
