  1. 16. Design and Optimisation of an Aquifer Storage and Recovery System - Options for long term storage under natural hydraulic gradients

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi

    Author : Simon Kreipl; [2021]
    Keywords : Aquifer storage and recovery; well-field design; groundwater modelling; numerical modelling; FEFLOW; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) is a concept where water is stored in an aquifer during times when it is available, thus creating artificial groundwater, which can later be recovered by pumping when it is needed (Pyne, 1995). One ASR cycle consists of a injection, a standby and a recovery phase. READ MORE

  3. 17. Biodiversity and habitat conditions in reaches with high flow velocity along gradients in hydrological and geomorphological alteration : A study of six rivers in Sweden

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Anders Aalto; [2021]
    Keywords : Hydrology; Geomorphology; Biological variables; Human alteration;

    Abstract : The vast majority of rivers in the developed world are affected by human alteration, which in turn negatively affects the species that rely on these highly diverse and species rich areas to survive. Homogenization of previously heterogenic areas due to a change in water discharge and the substrate availability in the rivers is often regarded as the main reason for the loss of species richness in rivers and the riparian zone.

  4. 18. Machine Learning Applied to Reach Classification in a Northern Sweden Catchment

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Mariana dos Santos Toledo Busarello; [2021]
    Keywords : machine learning; geomorphology; random forest; channel type;

    Abstract : An accurate fine resolution classification of river systems positively impacts the process of assessment and monitoring of water courses, as stressed by the European Commission’s Water Framework Directive. Being able to attribute classes using remotely obtained data can be advantageous to perform extensive classification of reaches without the use of field work, with some methods also allowing to identify which features best described each of the process domains.

  6. 20. Spruce Forests and Peat Wetlands in Lake Bolmen’s Catchment Both Leak and Degrade Coloured Dissolved Organic Carbon

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Jasmin Borgert; [2021]
    Keywords : Brownification; land use; DOC; iron; water colour;

    Abstract : Lake browning in the northern hemisphere is endangering crucial ecosystem services. Darker water decreases fish and primary production as well as touristic and recreational values. It furthermore requires intensive treatment to receive safe drinking water. Brownification is connected to iron and coloured dissolved organic carbon (DOC). READ MORE
