  1. 1. Elastic hyperspectral lidar for detecting coherent backscatter from insects

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Lauro Müller; [2022]
    Keywords : Nanosopy; Thin film physics; Hyperspectral; Lidar; Super continuum; Insects; Coherent scattering; Infrared Spectroscopy; Hyperspectral Imaging; Biophotonics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Insects play a major role in the ecosystem and are an important factor for biodiversity. Using laser remote sensing to distinguish and monitor the millions of insects in-situ, holds large potential to speed up and improve the otherwise time consuming process of trapping and subsequent analysis.

  3. 2. Implementation of Scheimpflug Lidar for Entomological Monitoring of Bark Beetles

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik

    Author : Jonathan Peterson; [2020]
    Keywords : Scheimpflug Lidar; Lidar; Bark beetles; Forestry; Entomological monitoring; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Bark beetles are responsible for great damages to Swedish forestry every year. This project focuses on a method of entomological lidar called Scheimpflug lidar to detect and monitor bark beetles. Scheimpflug lidar uses old techniques from photography to achieve a deep field of focus to resolve objects over long distances. READ MORE

  4. 3. Unbiased pitch detection and phase estimation in entomological lidar

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Johan Fogelmark; [2019]
    Keywords : Entomological lidar; wing beat frequency estimation; phas; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Good insect monitoring is important for both disease vector control and e?cient usage of pesticides in farming. Entomological lidar has been proven useful for detecting and monitoring insects. For every insect that transit the laser beam a backscatter signal containing species-specific information is obtained.

  5. 4. Short-Wave Infrared Lidar on Atmospheric Aerosols and Insects

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik

    Author : Mariam Andersson; [2017]
    Keywords : Lidar; Scheimpflug; Time-of-Flight; Remote sensing; Atmospheric sensing; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis focusses on the implementation of two elastic lidar (light detection and ranging) techniques for the monitoring of atmospheric aerosols and insects at short-wave infrared wavelengths. Data acquisition software was developed for a time-of-flight system, housed in the Lund University Mobile Biosphere Observatory (LUMBO), with consideration to the intended entomological application.
