A baseline study was performed to characterize the stormwater quality from the upstream roofs and road areas. Results showed variations in stormwater quality. This may inhibit single-step treatment performance. Therefore, a ‘treatment train’ of several SUDS measures was developed in order to achieve …

Among nurses, low back pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder. A significant proportion of back pain episodes can be attributed to events that occur during patient handling activities when nurses are exposed to heavy lifting, awkward back postures, and pushing and/or pulling. In the past years, many …

This research was done in the Land Dynamic group of Wageningen University between February and June of 2012. The research is mainly focused on analysis of whether land use/cover change (LUCC) influences sediment discharge and stream flow in the upstream regions of the Beiluo River, China. Five methods …

This Bachelor research thesis is to understand the water dynamics in the dry periods and wet periods to reduce negative consequences, resulting from the extreme weather conditions. When extreme rainfall occurs on soil with a low water retention capacity in the upstream area, flood might occur in the …
