  2. 16. The Role of Vegetation-Climate Feedbacks in Regional Earth System Dynamics

    Author : Anna Wramneby; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The hypothesis of this thesis is that climate models should take structural vegetation changes that operate on interannual to centennial time scales into account in order to simulate climate change in a more realistic manner. To evaluate this hypothesis, a regional Earth System Model (ESM) has been developed, validated and applied over Europe. READ MORE

  4. 17. Interception evaporation : processes and measurement techniques

    Author : Angela Lundberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Geology; Tillämpad geologi;

    Abstract : In temperate regions, evaporation of water intercepted by the vegetation represents an important part of the evapotranspiration. A review of interception evaporation studies showed that knowledge about interception evaporation processes is limited and progress is hampered by technical difficulties. READ MORE

  5. 18. Monitoring Water Availability in Northern Inland Waters from Space

    Author : Saeid Aminjafari; Fernando Jaramillo; Ian Brown; Cathleen Jones; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Water occurrence; Lake water level; Remote sensing; Altimetry; D-InSAR; naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

    Abstract : River deltas and lakes support biodiversity and offer crucial ecosystem services such as freshwater provision, flood control, and fishing. However, climate change and human activities have affected deltas and lakes globally, altering the services they provide. READ MORE

  6. 19. Making water information relevant on local to global scale – the role of Information Systems for Integrated Water Management

    Author : Fredrik Hannerz; Georgia Destouni; Dennis Lettenmaier; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Integrated water management; hydrology; environmental information systems; environmental monitoring; land cover; GIS; Sweden; Baltic Sea; European Union; global water; global change; Water Framework Directive; Physical geography; Naturgeografi; Physical Geography; naturgeografi;

    Abstract : Relevant information is essential for finding solutions in Integrated Water Management (IWM). Complex water systems and a need for increasing integration of sectors, actors and scales in IWM require new methods for developing and managing such information. READ MORE

  7. 20. Surface Energy Exchange and Hydrology of a Poor Sphagnum Mire

    Author : Erik Kellner; Harald Grip; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; Sphagnum; Geovetenskap; myr; energibudget; ytresistans; vitmossa; hydrologiska modeller; TDR; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Hydrology; hydrologi;

    Abstract : Mires surface energy and water budgets govern the conditions for climatic, hydrological, ecological and carbon balance processes. The components of the water and surface energy budgets were quantified over two growing seasons for an open boreal mire. READ MORE
