  1. 1. Tritrophic interactions with Silphium integrifolium at the axis : elucidating the role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal species on plant phenotype

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Protection Biology

    Author : Philipp Hansen; [2023]
    Keywords : Arbuscular mycorrhiza; mycorrhizal responsiveness; induced plant volatiles; Silphium integrifolium Silflower ; perennial grains; new crops; ecological intensification;

    Abstract : A fundamental understanding of the intricate interactions between crops and their environment may help guide the development of ecologically intensified agriculture. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are root symbionts that can increase a plant’s access to soil resources and have been found to reprogram plant defensive mechanisms, potentially influencing the performance of plant antagonists.

  2. 2. Soil organic carbon prediction using Sentinel-2 data and the LUCAS topsoil database

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Philipp Hansen; [2020]
    Keywords : Sentinel-2 LUCAS topsoil database Soil organic carbon mapping Multispectral data; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Its carbon sink potential as well as soil fertility benefits make organic carbon a soil variable for which reliable quantification methods are sought. This thesis work aims at investigating the possibility of adapting a large soil spectral library to build models for SOC predictions with remotely sensed, multispectral data. READ MORE
