  1. 21. HYDROLOGICAL DROUGHTS IN SWEDEN: Mapping of historical droughts and identificationof primary driving climate variables andcatchment properties

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Hugo Rudebeck; [2018]
    Keywords : hydrological droughts; drought propagation; drought indices; SSI; threshold index; SPI; catchment properties and drought events; hydrologisk torka; propagering av torrperioder; torkindex; SSI; tröskelvärdes index; SPI; avrinningsområdesegenskaper och torrperioder;

    Abstract : This study investigated the relationship between hydrological, and to some extent, meteorological droughts, and meteorological variables and catchment characteristics in 235 Swedish catchments between 1983 and 2013. This was done in order to investigate what factors affect the drought sensitivity in Swedish catchments and to map the occurrence of droughts in Sweden between 1983 and 2013. READ MORE

  3. 22. Contributions of Event Water to Streamflow in an Agricultural Catchment

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Johannes Hagby; [2018]
    Keywords : Isotopic hydrograph separation; tracer; event water; pre-event water; sequential rainfall collector; Hydrograf separation; spårämne; eventvatten; pre-event vatten; sekventiell regnuppfångare;

    Abstract : In agricultural catchments, hydrological processes play an important role in the export of nutrients. Water that enters a catchment during a rain event (event water) can have different flow paths and residence times. READ MORE

  4. 23. Evaluation of Seasonal Inflow Forecasting to Support Multipurpose Reservoir Management: A case study for the Upper Maule River Basin, Chile

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Johan Visser; [2017]
    Keywords : Seasonal Forecasting; Reservoir Management; Ensemble Streamflow Prediction; Downscaling; Maule; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Seasonal hydrological forecasts of future streamflow volumes can provide water resources managers with valuable information to improve long-term water resources planning and water use efficiency. The latest generation of coupled ocean-atmosphere general circulation models provides an opportunity for the prediction of hydroclimatic variables (e.g. READ MORE

  5. 24. A historical analysis of hydrological drought in Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Jesper Larsson; [2017]
    Keywords : Hydrological drought; threshold level method; drought indices; Hydrologisk torka; tröskelnivå metoden; index;

    Abstract : I Sverige finns det en brist på studier angående hydrologisk torka trots att det existerar problem med torka idag. Hydrologisk torka kan ha allvarliga konsekvenser på både naturen och samhället när det kommer till vattentillgång, växt -och djurliv och jordbruk. READ MORE

  6. 25. Estimating Aquifer Transmissivity based on Streamflow Records using an Analytical Approach in Kilombero Valley, Tanzania

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Jamila Tuwa; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Streamflow recession techniques have been useful in estimating aquifer hydraulic propertiesthat are not easily measured, but are important for the hydrologic responses of catchments.Compared to other hydraulic properties, aquifer transmissivity (T) is a key parameterproviding insight on groundwater development at a local and regional scale.
