1. 6. High tide flooding in near future projections for popular travel destinations

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : David Ebert; [2023]
   Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; High tide flooding; Projections; Adaptation and mitigation strategies; Lunar precession; Nodal cycle; Cycle of lunar perigee; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : High tide flooding (HTF) is becoming more common in coastal regions of the United States, although this phenomenon remains largely undocumented in published literature from other parts of the world. No matter the emissions scenario over the next decades, sea level rise (SLR) is projected to continue worldwide until at least the end of the 21st century, continually pushing the frequency and severity of HTF.

3. 7. Early Warning System of Students Failing a Course : A Binary Classification Modelling Approach at Upper Secondary School Level

   University essay from KTH/Lärande

   Author : Niklas Karlsson; Albin Lundell; [2022]
   Keywords : Machine learning; Random Forest; Early Warning System; Drop out; Algorithm; Binary classification model; Upper secondary school; Maskininlärning; Random Forest; Förebyggande Varningssystem; Algoritm; Binär klassificeringsmodell; Gymnasieskola;

   Abstract : Only 70% of the Swedish students graduate from upper secondary school within the given time frame. Earlier research has shown that unfinished degrees disadvantage the individual student, policy makers and society. A first step for preventing dropouts is to indicate students about to fail courses.

4. 8. Remote Sensing Based Pre-Season Yellow Rust Early Warning in Oromia, Ethiopia

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Chinatsu Endo; [2021]
   Keywords : yellow rust; modeling; prediction; early warning; remote sensing; geography; geographical information systems; GIS; Agriculture and Food Sciences; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Yellow rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. Tritici) is a crop disease caused by a fungus that regularly infects wheat and causes yield loss in Ethiopia. The disease has a significant impact on the country’s crop production, food security, health, and socioeconomic well-being. READ MORE

5. 9. Early Classification of Automotive Radar Data Using LSTM

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Joel Styrélius; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Advanced Driving-Assistance Systems such as blind-spot warning and collision avoidance are crucial systems for creating a safer and more sustainable traffic environment. A prerequisite for the safe operation of these types of systems is the classification of objects in the vicinity of the ego vehicle, based on data from automotive sensors such as lidars and radars.

6. 10. Behind the early warning: Improving impact-based forecasting of riverine floods in Malawi using passive microwave remote sensing

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Lone Mokkenstorm; [2021]
   Keywords : Physical Geography; Ecosystem Analysis; Early Warning; Riverine Floods; Humanitarian Work; Impact-based Forecasting; Malawi; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates whether freely available, coarse-resolution, Passive Microwave Remote Sensing (PMRS) data (37 GHz) can be effectively used for early warning systems for floods in Malawi. The Shire River Basin in Chikwawa and the smaller-scale North Rukuru River Basin in Karonga were studied using two alternative, ratio-based satellite indices that make use of the signal difference between wet and dry pixel cells: The m index and the rcmc index.
