  1. 1. The Role of Uni- and Multivariate Bias Adjustment Methods for Future Hydrological Projections and Subsequent Decision-Making

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

    Author : Anna Merle Liebenehm-Axmann; [2024]
    Keywords : Bias adjustment methods; future hydrological climate projections; statistical analysis; future streamflow analysis; biasjusteringsmetoder; framtida hydrologiska projektioner; statistisk analys; framtida vattenförings analys;

    Abstract : Climate models are essential for generating future climate projections. However, due to simplifications, the models can produce systematic differences between output and reality, which is referred to as model bias. Bias adjustment methods aim to reduce this error, which is important for making future projections more reliable. READ MORE

  3. 2. Flood mitigation at catchment scale: assessing the effectiveness of constructed wetlands

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Elin Ekström; [2023]
    Keywords : Nature-based solutions; wetlands; catchment; performance indicators; flood management; hydrological modeling; SWAT; Naturbaserade lösningar; våtmarker; avrinningsområde; nyckelindikatorer; översvämningshantering; hydrologisk modellering; SWAT;

    Abstract : Considering the potential for natural wetlands to store and retain water in the landscape,restored and constructed wetlands are increasingly implemented as Nature‐BasedSolutions (NBS) to mitigate downstream flooding. However, there is a frequent lack ofknowledge of the performance of NBS, and particularly wetlands, and how to best selectperformance indicators to measure their effectiveness. READ MORE

  4. 3. Assessment of future climate and land use changes on streamflow and phosphorus transport in a Swedish agricultural catchment

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment

    Author : Clara Laguna Marin; [2022]
    Keywords : surface water modelling; phosphorus; suspended sediment; climate change scenarios; socio-economic scenarios; INCA-PEco;

    Abstract : Despite efforts to reduce nutrient excess in surface waters in the last decades, eutrophication continues to be an important environmental problem in Europe. The presence of excess phosphorus (P) in waters, together with nitrogen (N), is one of its main causes. READ MORE

  5. 4. Acoustic Doppler Current Profiling for streamflow measurements in subarctic climate

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

    Author : Linus Nyström; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The ADCP (Acoustic Doppler Current Profiling) technology has been widely available and acknowledged as an instrument used for different types of flow measurement since 1990s, from small scale river measurements to larger ocean current mappings. This study was conducted by the author in cooperation with SWECO with the focus on smaller scale measurements especially on small natural watercourses in a sub-arctic climate with the purpose to examine if the ADCP technology can be used as a complement to the more classic methods for this type of flow measurements Current meter and Conductivity flow measurements.

  6. 5. Modelling the Effects of Climate Change on Future DOC Export to Lake Mälaren Using a Generalized Watershed Loading Functions (GWLF) Model

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Klara Lindqvist; [2022]
    Keywords : Hydrology; DOC; browning; climate change; drinking water production; Mälaren; Hydrologi; DOC; brunifiering; klimatförändringar; dricksvattenproduktion; Mälaren;

    Abstract : Browning of boreal freshwaters due to an increased export of terrestrial dissolved organic carbon (DOC) has been observed for some decennia. Drivers include recovery from acid deposition and changing climate and land cover. READ MORE
