31. Generation of urban runoff : Seasonal and climate change perspective
Sammanfattning : Runoff generation in cold regions is characterized by snowmelt contributions to runoff during the periods of thawing and changing runoff patterns due to frozen ground. This thesis project aimed at addressing these challenges by advancing the procedures for winter urban runoff computations and the assessment of control measures during the winter/spring period, when the snowmelt and frozen soils dominantly impact runoff generation in the current and future climates.

32. Hydrogeological modeling to improve remediation strategies for a drinking water aquifer contaminated by an aqueous phase liquid
Sammanfattning : In many communities, groundwater is an important source of drinking water. Groundwater aquifers are, however, vulnerable to the widespread and increasing problem of contamination from anthropogenic sources. Once in the groundwater, contaminants are likely to remain there for a long time as the attenuation rate is slow. LÄS MER
33. Energy Efficiency in Shopping Malls : Some Aspects Based on a Case Study
Sammanfattning : The building sector accounts for approximately 40 percent of our energy use. To reach existing environmental targets energy use will have to be reduced in all building types. At the European level, the main legislative instrument for improving the energy efficiency of the building stock is the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD). LÄS MER
34. Allergen-induced late airways reaction in the pig : influence of endogenous and exogenous glucocorticoids
Sammanfattning : A novel model for studies of the allergen-induced late reaction in the lower airways was developed in the pig. The influence on late bronchial obstruction and granulocyte function of endogenous cortisol levels and treatment with the glucocorticoid budesonide (BUD) was evaluated. LÄS MER
35. Urban drainage and climate change : impact assessment
Sammanfattning : According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2007), the global mean temperature has increased by 0,7 °C during the last 100 years and, as a consequence, the hydrological cycle has intensified with, for example, more intense rainfall events. As urban drainage systems have been developed over a long period of time and design criteria are based upon climatic characteristics, these changes will affect the systems and the city accordingly.
