6. Användning av riskbegreppet i en dagvattenkontext : En litteraturstudie om hur riskbegrepp används vid dimensionering av ledningsnät för dagvatten
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Sammanfattning : Climate change and urbanization is a threat for existing stormwater networks. Many stormwater networks are designed after historical rain data that will fail to predict future events due to large changes in rainfall patterns caused by climate change and urbanization. LÄS MER
7. Modelling the Occurrence and Fate of Microplastics Caused by Tyre Wear on Highway E18
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : The accumulation of microplastics (MPs) are a growing concern for the environment, the maximum contributor to the MP pollution is tyre wear particles or TWPs. TWPs can accumulate in the environment and remain there for long periods of time and hence have the ability to disrupt ecosystems. LÄS MER
8. Modelling the risk of rainfall events leading to momentary pollution levels exceeding maximum allowed concentrations - A Swedish case study of urban runoff in the Fyris river
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : The purpose of this study was (1) to study the proportion (X) of the flow in a watercourse that consists of urban runoff during a rain event and (2) to evaluate the risk that a few chosen pollutants, transported by urban runoff, exceed the maximum allowed concentration in the watercourse according to the environmental quality standards (MAC-EQS). The Fyris river in Uppsala, Sweden, was selected as a case study. LÄS MER
9. How variations of the duration and time to peak of the Chicago Design Storm affect the hydraulic response, as well as the areas contributing to peak runoff, of a synthetic urban catchment area
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : With an expanding urbanization in the world, and thus the expansion of impermeable surfaces, the risk of pluvial floods is an increasing factor that needs to be considered. This, in combination with increasing rain intensities and frequency of rain events indicates a problem both today and for the future. LÄS MER
10. The influence of spatial variations in rain intensity for cloudburst modelling : a case study of the Gävle cloudburst
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : With an intensification of heavy rain events in a changing climate and a rapid urbanization the risk for pluvial flooding is increasing in our societies. Pluvial flooding, which is formed when the rainfall rate exceeds the infiltration or drainage rate, can occur rapidly and cause great damages, large economic losses and possibly risk human lives.
