   Author : Ali Al-Ameri; Jaeyoung Park; [2023]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : As time is moving forward, the world is becoming more dependent on Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The vision for the future involves IoT devices participating in various aspects of our daily lives, including sensing, controlling, and communicating. READ MORE

3. 2. Usability of Sentinel-1 C-band VV and VH SAR data for the detection of flooded oil palm

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Sarah Lee Sienaert; [2023]
   Keywords : Geography; GIS; Sentinel-1; SAR; C-band; VV; VH; Oil Palm; Flood; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Flooding in oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia is a common problem. The oil palm’s habitable range is restricted to lowland equatorial areas, and the high rainfall and degraded landscapes associated with oil palm cultivation leaves oil palm prone to flooding. READ MORE

4. 3. Advancing understanding of tropical forest carbon dynamics through improved allometric models for palms: A case study with Prestoea montana in Puerto

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Växtekologi och evolution; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Paschalis Chatzopoulos; [2021]
   Keywords : Above ground biomass; allometry; Luquillo Forest Dynamics Plot; Palms;

   Abstract : Tropical forests are major components of Earth’s carbon stocks, but their diversity and structural complexity pose major challenges for making accurate estimates of their above ground biomass (AGB). Palms, in particular, are prominent and unique components of many tropical forests that have anatomical and physiological differences from dicot trees which affect their height - diameter allometry and consequently, our ability to accurately estimate their AGB.

6. 5. Total carbon sequestration during an entire rotation period of oil palm in northern Borneo

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

   Author : Josefin Runesson; [2019]
   Keywords : oil palm; carbon balance; carbon sequestration; land use change; soil carbon; carbon credits;

   Abstract : Considerable amounts of carbon (C) has been lost from tropical forests as a result of continuous conversion of tropical forests into oil palm plantations. Therefore, a better understanding of the C budget and potential sequestration rate in oil palm plantations and how it compares to natural forests is needed. READ MORE
