1. Surface Runoff on Green Urban Areas : A study on driving forces behind surface runoff generaiton
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraAbstract : Recent flooding events, such as the one in Germany 2021 have caused irreversible damages to infrastructure and lives. The aftermath of events like these have underlined the importance of an accurate risk management by predicting them in urban areas. READ MORE

2. Evaluation of rainfall-runoff modelling data in Sebeya Catchment, Rwanda - Recommendations for improved flood hazard analysis
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresursläraAbstract : Rwanda has experienced an increase in the frequency of riverine floods since the mid 2000s, and the future impact of climate change on the hydrological cycle is uncertain. Flood hazard analysis is one tool used to reduce flood risks; the analysis is often based on models which requires hydrological and meteorological data. READ MORE

3. Analysis of Rainfall-runoff processes at different scales in two mountainous, Arctic catchments in northern Sweden
University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografiAbstract : The hydrological regime in Arctic catchments is being altered as an effect of climate change. To be able to project future changes in Arctic hydrology and hydrogeology, the mechanisms and drivers affecting runoff generation needs to be understood. READ MORE

4. The Influence of Infiltration Capacity and Antecedent Soil Moisture Conditions on Urban Pluvial Flooding
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraAbstract : Urban pluvial floods occur during extreme rain events and both occurrence and magnitude of these floods are expected to increase. Preserving or constructing green areas in urban areas has been shown to mitigate and control these floods. READ MORE

5. Combining Continuous and Event-based Hydrological Modeling in Kävlinge River Basin with HEC-HMS
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresursläraAbstract : Prediction of flood and evaluation of the impact of climate change in a catchment needs to be correctly estimated, which can be accomplished by hydrological modelling in HEC-HMS. In this paper, the objectives were to gain an understanding of the rainfall-runoff process and estimate the flood frequency curve in the Kävlinge River Basin. READ MORE
