A wetland is an ecosystem that is flooded by water either permanently or seasonally. Wetlands play a number of roles including water purification, water storage, processing of carbon and other nutrients, and support of plants and animals. Wetlands are the most biologically diverse of all ecosystems. In comparison, a constructed wetland is an artificial wetland system treating municipal or industri

In Water Resources Engineering, research is pursued on how water resides and is transported in nature and in urban systems. Studies are carried out on the movement of rainwater through land and foundations, how rain and melted snow reach rivers, flooding and the design of systems to reduce the consequences of flooding, as well as on how water flows, the spread of pollutants, and erosion along open

Buildings account for a significant amount of the total energy use in Sweden. Aside from requiring a lot of energy and environmental impact to construct, they have continual energy needs throughout their lifespan. Our work is focused on creating energy-efficient buildings and neighbourhoods with a low environmental impact. Some of the focus areas are the utilisation of passive solar energy through
