Joakim Riml

I am a Docent in Hydrology and serve as a Associate Professor in River Engineering at the Division of Resources, Energy and Infrastructure within the Department of Sustainable Development, Environmental Science and Engineering (SEED). In my role, I conduct research and teaching that address contemporary societal challenges related to hydrology and water resources, with an overarching focus on how water, energy, and pollutants are transported across landscapes, as well as the human and ecological consequences of these flows.

My research interests include, in particular, the transport and retention of nutrients in agricultural landscapes, carbon export from catchments, and changes in runoff patterns linked to geomorphological processes and hydropower regulation.

I am since 2022 Programme Director of Civilingenjörsprogrammet i Samhällsbyggnad
