1. 11. The cooling potential of Rain Gardens and Green Roofs - The influence on energy partitioning in Kvillebäcken, Gothenburg

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Julia Cederbrant; [2021-07-05]
   Keywords : urban energy balance; urban water balance; SUEWS; energy partitioning; Blue-green infrastructure;

   Abstract : Blue-green infrastructure (BGI) has become a popular way of combating the effects of climate change, both regarding heat mitigation and runoff from precipitation. This thesis aims to understand the potential of two BGI types, namely rain gardens and green roofs, of increasing the latent heat fraction in an urban area and thereby also understand the possible cooling effect from these measures.

3. 12. A Nonlinear Reservoir Model to Simulate Blue-Green Stormwater Systems – An Application to Augustenborg Catchment in Malmö, Sweden

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

   Author : Emmanuel Ekwu; [2021]
   Keywords : Blue-green stormwater control; Nonlinear reservoir routing model; Stormwater; Modelling; Calibration; Water engineering; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The increasingly rapid urbanization has led to vast impervious surface areas in the urban environment. This situation of impervious surfaces has increased the surface temperature and interrupted the natural water circle, which has negatively impacted the urban environment. READ MORE

4. 13. The impact of different evapotranspiration models in rainfall runoff modelling using HBV- light

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Oscar Maxander; [2021]
   Keywords : HBV-light; Rainfall runoff modelling; Evapotranspiration; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The choice of which potential evapotranspiration (PET) model to use when estimating streamflow using a rainfall-runoff model have been the topic of many studies. The aim with this thesis was to assess the robustness of six different PET models using HBV-light as rainfall-runoff model over three catchments in Sweden. READ MORE

5. 14. Optimisation of Run of River Production Forecasting Using Aiolos Forecast Studio

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Amer Al-Qes; [2020]
   Keywords : Run of river hydropower plants; power production forecasting; Aiolos forecast studio; model accuracy assessment analysis and power market.; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Hydropower is simply the largest source of renewable energy in the Nordic countries, where It compose around 90% of power production in Iceland, 70% in Norway, 40% in Sweden and 20% in Finland. Mountainous terrain and abundance in the surface water is a significant contributing factor in hydropower production. READ MORE

6. 15. Sensitivity analysis of pluvial flood modelling tools for dense urban areas : A case study in Lundby-Lindholmen, Gothenburg

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

   Author : Johanna Eriksson; [2020]
   Keywords : Flood Modelling; MIKE FLOOD; Sensitivity Analysis;

   Abstract : As a result of the global climate change, extreme precipitation is occurring more frequently which increases the risk of flooding, especially in urban areas. Urbanisation is widely discussed regarding urban flooding where an increase of impervious surfaces limits the infiltration and increases the surface runoff. READ MORE
