  1. 1. Assessing the Effectiveness of Urban Trees with Skeletal Soils in Flood Risk Mitigation

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Molly Boberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Flood Management; Climate Adaptation; Nature-Based Solutions NBS ; Urban Trees; Skeletal Soil; Hydrologic Modelling; MIKE; Översvämningshantering; Klimatanpassning; Naturbaserade lösningar; Stadsträd; Skelettjord; Hydrologisk modellering; MIKE;

    Abstract : With increased urbanization and climate change, heavy rainfall events and urban floods are becoming more frequent. To meet the demands for effective climate adaptation strategies and mitigation measures, Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) have received increased attention. READ MORE

  3. 2. Developing a Rainfall-Runoff Routing Model using  Spatially Distributed Travel Times : Modelling a Cloudburst Event in an Urban Catchment

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Sara Ekeroth; [2022]
    Keywords : Excess rainfall; Runoff routing; Cloud burst; Pluvials; GIS; ArcPy; Effektiv nederbörd; Avrinningsmodell; Skyfall; Pluviala översvämningar; Geodata; ArcPy;

    Abstract : The future holds challenges for urban areas when it comes to handling pluvial floodings, occurring when the rainfall intensity exceeds both the man-made and natural infiltration and drainage capacity. To gain understanding of the effects and needed measures, tools for modelling the urban response to events such as cloudbursts are needed. READ MORE

  4. 3. Rainwater Infiltration Model of the Chocaya Basin using Hydrus-1D

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Alexander Bergman; Mire Persmark; [2020]
    Keywords : Rainwater Infiltration; Alluvial Plain; Chocaya Basin; Hydraulic Conductivity; Double Ring Infiltrometer DRI ; Hydrus-1D; Electrical Resistivity Tomography ERT ; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The objective of this study was to assess the rainwater infiltration process in the unsaturated zone in an alluvial plain. Particularly, this study is focused on the Chocaya basin in central Bolivia. READ MORE

  5. 4. Calibration of a 2D hydrodynamic model for flood inundation extent using aerial photographs : A case study of the Hallsberg flood event in 5-9 September 2015

    University essay from KTH/Vattendragsteknik

    Author : Alexandros Chatzakis; [2017]
    Keywords : MIKE 21; flood modelling; calibration; infiltration module; inundation; aerial photographs; MIKE 21; översvämnings modellering; kalibrering; infiltration modul; flygbilder;

    Abstract : Alteration of rainfall patterns is one major impact of climate change. Rainfall events with big precipitation volumes under short periods of time are predicted to become even more frequent in higher latitude regions, including Sweden. READ MORE

  6. 5. Two-dimensional hydrodynamic modeling of overland flow and infiltration in a sustainable drainage system

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; Lunds universitet/Ekosystemteknik (CI)

    Author : Karl Gunnarsson; [2015]
    Keywords : infiltration modeling; MIKE 21; rainfall-runoff modeling; SUDS; urban hydrology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : As a part of the GrönNano project at Luleå University of Technology, a sustainable drainage system, composed of infiltration surfaces and a wale,has been subject to hydrological measurements and modeling. The aim of this study was to identify the conditions under which it is possible to model the hydrological processes of that system adequately, using the two-dimensional hydrodynamic modeling software MIKE 21 equipped with an infiltration and leakage module.
