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

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

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

    Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The future of flooding insurances : A qualitative review of how insurances regarding flood damage might change in the future of the insurance industry in Sweden

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Kulturgeografiska institutionen

    Författare :David Nyström; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Pluvial flooding; Insurance industry; GIS; Extreme weather; Climate change.;

    Sammanfattning : Insurance companies are grappling with the rising frequency and severity of extreme weather-related flooding events, which currently pose the highest financial burden both in total and per individual case. The existing insurance model isn't economically sustainable if such events continue to increase. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Bluegreengrey (BGG) solution for future climate and flood-resilient urban drainage network by enhancing the natural hydrological cycle

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Författare :Adnan Asif Rifat; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Bluegreengrey; Sustainable stormwater; Basement flooding; Urban flooding; Pipe Network; BGG; Climate change; Hydrology; Mike .; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Assessment of a sediment management solution in a reservoir with a sluicing technique using a HEC-RAS 2D model : Case study of Andakílsá river in west Iceland

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Emilía Sól Gudgeirsdóttir; [2023]
    Nyckelord :SediCon Sluicer; Andakílsá Hydropower Station; HEC-RAS 2D Sediment modelling; Sustainable sediment management; SediCon Sluicer; Andakílsá vattenkraftverk; HEC-RAS 2D Sediment Modellering; Hållbar sedimenthantering;

    Sammanfattning : Sediment-related issues in reservoirs can often pose significant challenges to their operational effectiveness, sustainability, and environmental impact. Sustainable sediment management can help resolve these issues and extend the lifespan of dams. LÄS MER

  7. 5. High tide flooding in near future projections for popular travel destinations

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :David Ebert; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; High tide flooding; Projections; Adaptation and mitigation strategies; Lunar precession; Nodal cycle; Cycle of lunar perigee; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : High tide flooding (HTF) is becoming more common in coastal regions of the United States, although this phenomenon remains largely undocumented in published literature from other parts of the world. No matter the emissions scenario over the next decades, sea level rise (SLR) is projected to continue worldwide until at least the end of the 21st century, continually pushing the frequency and severity of HTF.
