   Abstract : .... READ MORE

4. 2. Effects of climate change on boreal wetland and riparian vegetation

   Author : Lotta Ström; Roland Jansson; Christer Nilsson; Sarah Gergel; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biomass; flooding; hydrologic niche; invasibility; riparian zone; riparian plant species; river margin; climate scenario; seed sowing experiment; species composition; species richness; transplant experiment; Terrestrial ecology; Terrestrisk ekologi;

   Abstract : Models of climate change predict that temperature will increase during the 21th century and the largest warming will take place at high northern latitudes. In addition to warming, predictions for northern Europe include increased annual precipitation and a higher proportion of the precipitation during winter falling as rain instead of snow. READ MORE

5. 3. Reducing uncertainties in climate change impact studies through uni- and multivariate methods : A Nordic perspective

   Author : Faranak Tootoonchi; Claudia Teutschbein; Jan O. Haerter; Olle Räty; Thomas Grabs; Alex J. Cannon; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Climate change; precipitation and temperature; bias adjustment; bias correction; univariate and multivariate methods; hydrologic signatures; drought; Sweden; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot miljöanalys; Earth Science with specialization in Environmental Analysis;

   Abstract : Climate change poses undeniable impacts on hydroclimatic processes due to simultaneous effects of rising temperature and changing precipitation patterns. To quantify these impacts, simulations of climate variables are typically retrieved from climate models, which are then downscaled and bias-adjusted for a particular study site. READ MORE

6. 4. The influence of multiscale hyporheic flow on solute transport : Implications for stream restoration enhancing nitrogen removal

   Author : Ida Morén; Anders Wörman; Joakim Riml; Roy Haggerty; KTH; []
   Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hyporheic exchange flow; Hydrological modeling; Solute transport; Stream restoration; Nitrogen; Power spectral analysis; Hydraulic and Hydrologic Engineering; Hydraulik och teknisk hydrologi;

   Abstract : Stream water that flows into and out of streambeds is called hyporheic exchange flow (HEF).It continuously interacts with groundwater and thereby affect the water quality of local streamreaches as well as downstream recipients by providing an environment where solutes andenergy can be retained and degraded.

7. 5. Climate change and urban drainage : future precipitation and hydraulic impact

   Author : Mats Olofsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VA-teknik; Urban Water Engineering;

   Abstract : Increasing global mean temperature influences the hydrologic cycle. In the 21st century, hydrologic change featuring more heavy precipitation events is very likely according to the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC. This change will have a great impact on urban environments and infrastructures. READ MORE
