  1. 1. Modelling the Water Table in a Bog

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Tobias Bowley; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Over the past five years, an ongoing study at INES, Lund University, have examined the encroachment of trees and vegetation into a bog ecosystem in northern Scania, Sweden. While several factors have been identified as contributing to this ecological transformation, including, nutrient availability, and climate, the hydrological aspect remains a key area of investigation.

  3. 2. Nitrogen legacies in agricultural catchments : an analysis of 170 years of nitrogen legacies data in four Swedish agricultural catchments

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Laura-Ainhoa Prischl; [2023]
    Keywords : nitrogen mass balance; nitrogen surplus; land use trajectories; hysteresis effect; water quality; agriculture; nitrogen surplus; land use trajectories; hysteresis effect; water quality; agriculture;

    Abstract : Despite the enforcement of legislation and application of measures, nitrogen (N) levels continue to be high in streams. One of the reasons for the low N reduction, is the legacy accumulation of N. READ MORE

  4. 3. Electrochemical oxidation of PFAS in soil conditions : Using Boron-doped diamond electrodes and iron electrodes

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Alexander Öhberg; [2022]
    Keywords : PFAS ELECTROCHEMICAL OXIDATION IN-SITU DESTRUCTION MINERALISATION REMOVAL;

    Abstract : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a rising topic in the field of contaminated sites around the world, with destruction of these being an area in dire need of innovation. Previous experiments of destructive character have been proven efficient using boron doped diamond electrodes (BDD) in small scale electrochemical cells. READ MORE

  5. 4. Groundwater modeling of Krycklan catchment and evaluation of the groundwater discharge distribution

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Sandra Edström; [2022]
    Keywords : groundwater modelling; groundwater flow; Krycklan catchment; topography-controlled groundwater surface; evapotranspiration; groundwater discharge; groundwater recharge; grundvattenmodellering; grundvattenflöde; Krycklan avrinningsområde; topografi-kontrollerad grundvattenyta; evapotranspiration; grundvattenutflöde; grundvatteninfiltration;

    Abstract : This thesis aimed to evaluate the groundwater discharge distribution in the Krycklan catchment by developing a groundwater flow model using COMSOL Multiphysics and assuming a topography- controlled groundwater surface. Previous research has shown that the groundwater surface can be modeled as a subdued replica of the topography in humid climate regions where the permeability of the subsurface is low and where the groundwater surface is shallow.

  6. 5. Effects from Firn Density on Radar Derived Depth to Perennial Firn Aquifer, Lomonosovfonna, Svalbard

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Daniel Estmark; [2022]
    Keywords : Perennial Firn Aquifer; Glacier; Svalbard; Mass balance; GPR; Lomonosovfonna; Flerårig firn akvifär; glaciär; Svalbard; massbalans; GPR; Lomonosovfonna;

    Abstract : As the climate is changing, there are clear impacts on the mass balance of glaciers. A glacier can be defined as the result of sufficient accumulation, in the form of snow and rain, compared to its ablation, the different types of glacial loss, a balance that then determines the size of the glacier.
