  1. 1. Comparing Groundwater Drawdown with Estimated Influence Radius – A Case Study of Infrastructural Projects in Sweden

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

    Author : Staffan Druid; [2022]
    Keywords : Influence radius; analytical formula; groundwater lowering; sensitivity; Influensradie; analytisk beräkning; grundvattenavsänkning; känslighet;

    Abstract : Infrastructural projects may sometimes require excavation of soils and the groundwater table to be lowered, temporarily or permanently. As there are risks in connection to groundwater lowering, the extent of the affected area is of interest. READ MORE

  3. 2. Quantification of peat volume change in Northern peatlands : A study of mires capacity to swell and shrink and its relation to mire age and land management

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

    Author : Anna Engman; [2022]
    Keywords : peatland; peat volume change; ecohydrology; specific storage; peatland age; torvmark; myr; torvvolymförändring; ekohydrologi; specifik magasinkoefficient; ålder;

    Abstract : Peatlands are important ecosystems that provide ecohydrological functions related to carbon storage and cycling, water quality, flood attenuation, and groundwater recharge. One key characteristic that gives peatlands these functions is the capacity to swell and shrink upon wetting and drying, commonly referred to as peat volume change. READ MORE

  4. 3. A geophysical survey in the Chocaya Basin in the central Valley of Cochabamba, Bolivia, using ERT and TEM

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Hannes Pilser; [2020]
    Keywords : ERT; TEM; geophysics; Cochabamba; aquifer; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The Chocaya Basin is situated in the north-western part of the Valley of Cochabamba, Bolivia, where a semi-arid climate prevails. The increasing population is dependent on local aquifers for drinking water and irrigation. Wells are used to extract water. READ MORE
