Avrinningsnätet
Avrinningsnätet refers to the system of natural and artificial watercourses that collect and convey precipitation and surface water towards a larger body of water. This network is crucial for managing water resources and preventing flooding. It encompasses rivers, streams, ditches, canals, and storm drains, all working together to channel water. The efficiency of an avrinningsnätet is influenced by factors such as topography, soil type, vegetation cover, and the extent of urbanization.
In urban environments, avrinningsnätet often includes extensive man-made infrastructure like storm sewers and retention ponds designed
The study and management of avrinningsnätet fall under the discipline of hydrology and water management. Understanding
