1. 1. The Influence of Infiltration Capacity and Antecedent Soil Moisture Conditions on Urban Pluvial Flooding

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

   Author : Disa Barkefors; [2023]
   Keywords : Urban pluvial flood; 2D modelling; MIKE ; urban green area; soil moisture; Chicago Design Storm;

   Abstract : 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

3. 2. Bluegreengrey (BGG) solution for future climate and flood-resilient urban drainage network by enhancing the natural hydrological cycle

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Adnan Asif Rifat; [2023]
   Keywords : Bluegreengrey; Sustainable stormwater; Basement flooding; Urban flooding; Pipe Network; BGG; Climate change; Hydrology; Mike .; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. READ MORE

4. 3. Characterization of Landscape Structures and Precipitation in relation to Flooding events in Pampa Deprimida : A Minor Field Study in Argentina

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

   Author : Linnea Svärd; [2023]
   Keywords : Pampeana hydrology; flood risk mapping; runoff; infiltration; precipitation; SCSCN; remote sensingg; Hydrologi på Pampas; kartläggning av översvämningsrisker; avrinning; infiltration; nederbörd; SCS-CN; fjärranalys; Hidrología de la Pampa Deprimida; cartografía del riesgo de inundaciones; escorrentía; infiltración; precipitación; SCS-CN; sensores remotos;

   Abstract : The purpose of the thesis is to characterize flood events within the agricultural fields of flooding Pampa in Argentina. The characterization divides the flat landscape into flood prone areas and endeavour at linking driving factors to flood response based on past events. READ MORE

5. 4. Efficiency of sustainable urban drainage systems during flash floods

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Snærós Axelsdóttir; [2022]
   Keywords : Bioretention Cell; Rain Garden; Infiltration Trench; Green Roof; Permeable Pavement; Stormwater runoff; Storm Water Management Model;

   Abstract : As the world’s population is migrating more into urban areas, landcover changes follow. Natural pervious areas are being converted to impervious areas, which when subjected to rain generates more stormwater runoff. READ MORE

6. 5. SuDS water storage capacity calculator : A decision support tool for the implementation ofSustainable Drainage Systems in Östersund.

   University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för ekoteknik- och hållbart byggande

   Author : Tess van der Hulle; [2022]
   Keywords : Sustainable Drainage Systems SuDS ; Decision Support Systems DSS ; precipitation; calculator; stormwater model; Östersund; Sweden;

   Abstract : Heavy precipitation events are expected to increase in intensity and frequency, due to global warming. Sewer systems might overload during heavy rainfall, resulting in floods which potentially affect all municipalities in Sweden. READ MORE
