  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. Analysis of Rainfall-runoff processes at different scales in two mountainous, Arctic catchments in northern Sweden

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : June Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : Arctic hydrology; Catchment response parameters; Water height recession analysis; Permafrost presence; Glacier presence;

    Abstract : The hydrological regime in Arctic catchments is being altered as an effect of climate change. To be able to project future changes in Arctic hydrology and hydrogeology, the mechanisms and drivers affecting runoff generation needs to be understood. READ MORE

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. Exploring the Potential of Female overland Travel Narratives to Influence Development Processes

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för konst, kultur och kommunikation (K3)

    Author : Indigo Janka; [2022]
    Keywords : overland travel; development; travel narrarives;

    Abstract : In this paper female overland documentations are examined, as narratives that could influence development processes. In thematic chapters female Overland travel is investigated and potential connection points between development processes and the travel narratives are highlighted. READ MORE

  6. 5. Hydrological modelling of a recycling facility and landfill

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Mazen Tawfik; [2022]
    Keywords : Parsimonious approach; Lumped modelling; Surface water; Landfill; Leachate water; Storage reservoirs.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A parsimonious lumped model for simulating a catchment composed of a landfill and recycling facility were developed. The modelling results showed an acceptable conformity with the observed values with NSE of 0.54 and R2 of 0.56 in hourly simulations, though the results were characterized by a general underestimation.
