21. Long-term phosphorus trends in Swedish rivers and streams : widespread and persistent nutrient decline
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and AssessmentSammanfattning : Phosphorus (P) is often considered the limiting nutrient for freshwater productivity because of its relevant role in regulating algal production and determining community composition. The concern for increasing anthropogenic P inputs registered since the last century has shaped environmental policies around the world to limit the effects of algal bloom (also known as eutrophication) in freshwater ecosystems through the establishment of maximum threshold nutrient concentrations.

22. Flood modelling in urban areas : A comparative study of MIKE 21 and SCALGO Live
Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : Pluvial flooding originating from extreme rainfall is problematic and an increasing issue in Sweden. Higher requirements on adapting cities in urban areas to these challenges have been placed on both municipalities and the county administration. Thus, an increased need for water modelling, both in existing and planned areas have emerged. LÄS MER
23. How design storms with normally distributed intensities customized from precipitation radar data in Sweden affect the modeled hydraulic response to extreme rainfalls
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : Intense but short-term cloudbursts may cause severe flooding in urban areas. Such short-term cloudbursts mostly are of convective character, where the rain intensity may vary considerably within relatively small areas. Using uniform design rains where maximum intensity is assumed over the whole catchment is common practice in Sweden, though. LÄS MER
24. Temporal Trends in Dissolved Inorganic Carbon in a Swedish Boreal Catchment
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : Inland waters are important systems for transforming, storing and transporting carbon along the aquatic continuum, but also by emitting carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) to the atmosphere. In light of the last decades observed increase in dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in many inland waters across the northern hemisphere, a logical question arise whether other aquatic carbon species display similar trends.

25. A Nonlinear Reservoir Model to Simulate Blue-Green Stormwater Systems – An Application to Augustenborg Catchment in Malmö, Sweden
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER
