1. Impact of climate variability on dynamic groundwater storage in mid- to high latitude countries
Abstract : Climate change will alter the hydrological cycle, potentially changing dynamic groundwater storage and increasing groundwater drought risk. Climate influences groundwater storage directly via changes in groundwater recharge, but groundwater drought responsiveness further depends on groundwater system characteristics. READ MORE

2. Uncertainties in modeling groundwater contamination
Abstract : The scientific problem of nuclear waste disposal suffers from stronguncertainties arising both from its object (the system being studied being unknown) and also from its ambitious objectives (prediction of future events and their consequences). This work focuses on identifying, structuring and quantifying the main uncertainties involved in this field. READ MORE

3. Radon in Groundwater- Influencing Factors and Prediction Methodology for a Swedish Environment
Abstract : This thesis presents a method for predicting radon (222Rn) levels in groundwater on a general scale, within an area of approximately 185 x 145 km2. The method applies to Swedish conditions, where 222Rn is the main contributor to natural radioactivity. READ MORE

4. Spatial variability of geogenic contaminants in drinking water sources : Insights into hydrogeological controls, geospatial data for safe water supply and groundwater resource management
Abstract : The presence of geogenic contaminants in drinking water is a major health concern in many parts of the world. The interaction of groundwater with different rock types and sediments in the natural geochemical environment play an important role in controlling their mobility. READ MORE

5. Significance of transport dynamics on concentration statistics and expected mass fraction based risk assessment in the subsurface
Abstract : This thesis relies on a Langrangian framework used for conservative tracer transport simulations through 2-D heterogeneous porous media. Conducted numerical simulations enable large sets of concentration values in both spatial and temporal domains. READ MORE
