  1. 1. Inter-Calibration of Optical Sensors and Implications for Water Quality Monitoring

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Svenja-Maria Hoffmeister; [2017]
    Keywords : Absorbance; fluorescence; optical sensors; DOC; turbidity; water quality; Absorbans; fluorescens; optiska sensorer; DOC; turbiditet; vattenkvalité;

    Abstract : Expected changes in water quality due to a changing climate associated with variabilities in rainfall, runoff and diffusive spreading of pollution pose an emerging risk for the drinking water supply. Extensive monitoring of water quality parameters is of importance and the possibility of sudden extreme events brings up the need of high-frequency measurements. READ MORE

  2. 2. Rainfall Runoff Modeling in Kävlinge River Basin with HEC-HMS: Hydrologic Response to the Climate of the Future

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Kaitlin Wicher; [2016]
    Keywords : HEC-HMS; Rainfall Runoff; Kävlinge; Modeling; GIS; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This Master's thesis work was carried out at Lund University’s Faculty of Engineering in conjunction with Sydvatten AB, Southern Sweden's drinking water provider and their research division Sweden Water Research. The purpose of the study was to gain an understanding of the runoff response in the Kävlinge River Basin and study the increased runoff that is expected to occur due to climate change using the modeling program HEC-HMS, the hydrological engineering center of the Army Corps of Engineers Hydrologic Modeling System.

  3. 3. Snowmelt and runoff assessment of Talas River Basin using remote sensing approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Hammad Javid; [2014]
    Keywords : Talas River; remotely sensed precipitation; TRMM; GPCC; MODIS; Chu-Talas River Basin; transboundary rivers; Central Asia; Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Transboundary river basins provide inhabitance and water resources to millions of people around the globe and they are a source of dispute among neighbor countries also. This thesis focuses on the snow melt and runoff modeling of a small transboundary river, Talas; using a physically distributed rainfall-runoff model, TOPKAPI-ETH. READ MORE

  4. 4. Analysis of the rainfall-runoff pattern of a catchment with limited data to estimate the runoff potential. Case study: The Mefou sub basin in Cameroon

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Sylvester Kebila Bakoh; [2008]
    Keywords : offshore technology; Limited data; Swedish HBV model with limited data; Rainfall-runoff estimates; Environmental studies; Miljöstudier; Väg- och vattenbyggnadsteknik; hydraulic engineering; Civil engineering; soil mechanics; Technology and Engineering; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Water resources management in a catchment requires the quantification of the water potential. This is usually achieved by the estimation of the hydrological and meteorological characteristics of the basin using observed data to carry out statistical estimates or for use in hydrological models.
