  2. 2. Exploring Spatiotemporal Relationships between InSAR-derived Land Subsidence and Satellite-based Hydrological Variables

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Yixin Zhang; [2021]
    Keywords : InSAR; Shabestar; subsidence; groundwater; hydrological variables; LSTM; Sentinel-1A; Geomatics; Technology and Engineering; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Shabestar basin in the East Azerbaijan province, Northwest Iran, where irrigation is the main groundwater consumer, has experienced large-scale subsidence and groundwater deletion, which poses a threat to the local agricultural activities, economic development, and food security. With the emergency of mitigating the risk, satisfying future demand for groundwater, and improving resilience considering climate change, this study proposes a satellite-based approach to explore the spatio-temporal relationships between measured subsidence and hydrological variables in the basin to assist groundwater management strategy.

  5. 5. Solar photovoltaic potential to complement hydropower in Ecuador : a GIS-based framework of analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Jose Jara Alvear; [2018]
    Keywords : photovoltaic; hydropower; complementarity; GIS; Ecuador; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : In Ecuador, more than 85% of electricity production relies on hydropower and consequently the supply of electricity relies on water availability. During the dry season (October-March) hydropower capacity could diminish up to one-third of its installed capacity or more under a severe drought causing a substantial augmentation of thermoelectric power output to offset the lack of hydropower to cover electricity demand, and consequently increasing the overall operational cost and emission of CO2 of the power system.
