1. Land cover classification using machine-learning techniques applied to fused multi-modal satellite imagery and time series data
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Land cover classification is one of the most studied topics in the field of remote sensing, involving the use of data from satellite sensors to analyze and categorize different land surface types. There are numerous satellite products available, each offering different spatial, spectral, and temporal resolutions. READ MORE

2. Post-Fire Vegetation Recovery Monitoring using MODIS Time Series: A Case Study in California
University essay from KTH/GeoinformatikAbstract : Human-caused forest fires have increased in magnitude and frequency, affecting global vegetation and requiring a re-evaluation of fire regimes. Changing fire regimes have led to reduced burned areas in fire- dependent ecosystems and increased areas in fire-independent ecosystems, resulting in changes in land cover and posing a threat to native plant communities.

3. Assessment of the invasive Himalayan balsam (Impatiens glandulifera) distribution in Sweden : The effects of latitudinal location and land cover on the distribution
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)Abstract : Invasive alien species are recognized as a major problem worldwide. They affect native flora and fauna negatively, resulting in loss of biodiversity and increased economic costs of the species’ themselves and management efforts. READ MORE

4. Using forest reflectance modelling to estimate albedo for narrow-view satellites
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : Surface albedo estimations from remote sensing are invaluable for energy balance descrip- tions in climate research. The aim of this work is to evaluate the possibility of using Sentinel-2 satellite data to get the total albedo of a small, vegetated area. READ MORE

5. The effect of management strategies on carbon uptake of highway ancillary areas in Northern Germany
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Carbon storage capacity estimations of terrestrial vegetation are necessary to understand the limit of possible carbon emissions. General approximations, of a landscapes carbon pool capacity, can be performed using the InVEST-model. READ MORE
