1. Evaluating DInSAR for measuring seasonal elevation dynamics at the Vissátvuopmi palsa mire complex in Northern Sweden
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : During recent years the palsa mires of Fennoscandia have reported to be undergoing extensive lateral degradation, and in a warming environment the palsa mires of Sweden among others are threatened to thaw completely by the end of this century. Since subarctic peatlands account for 30% of the global soil organic carbon storage, small degradation changes in these areas globally, can potentially change the greenhouse gas emissions on a worldwide scale.

2. Seasonal permafrost subsidence monitoring in Tavvavuoma (Sweden) and Chersky (Russia) using Sentinel-1 data and the SBAS stacking technique
University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografiAbstract : Permafrost deformation is expected to increase due to climatic perturbations such as amplified air and soil temperatures, resulting in permafrost thawing and subsequent subsidence. Palsas and peat plateaus are uplifted ice-rich peat mounds that experience permafrost subsidence. READ MORE

3. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar For Track Condition Monitoring. Case Study on Malmbanan
University essay from Lunds universitet/Trafik och vägAbstract : There is over 15,000 km of track in the Swedish railroad network. This network is vital for the transport of people and goods across the country. It is important that this network is monitored and maintained to ensure good function and safety. READ MORE

4. Exploring Spatiotemporal Relationships between InSAR-derived Land Subsidence and Satellite-based Hydrological Variables
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : 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. Above-ground biomass estimation in boreal productive forests using Sentinel-1 data
University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografiAbstract : Estimation of biomass has high importance for economic, ecologic and climatic reasons due to the multiple ecosystem services offered by forested landscapes. Measurements that are taken in the field incur personal and economic costs. Nevertheless, biomass surveying based on remote sensing techniques offer efficiency thanks to covering large areas.
