1. 1. Spatial downscaling of gridded soil moisture products using optical and thermal satellite data: the effects of using different vegetation indices

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Tómas Halldórsson Alexander; [2023]
   Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem Analysis; Remote Sensing; Soil moisture; Downscaling; Vegetation index; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Soil moisture (SM) plays an important role in the exchange of heat and water between the surface and atmosphere, impacting water and energy cycles and the climate. Satellite remote sensing offers a global-scale estimation of SM; however, the coarse resolutions of satellite SM products, typically ranging from 25-50 km, are unsuitable for regional analysis.

3. 2. Impact of Sea Surface Temperature and Salinity on Phytoplankton blooms phenology in the North Sea

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Krystyna Muszel; [2023]
   Keywords : Geography; GIS; North Sea; phytoplankton; bloom; phenology; remote sensing; TIMESAT software; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Various environmental forcings can affect phytoplankton blooms, resulting in changes in bloom timing and abundance, which can have many far-reaching consequences. Understanding bloom phenology is crucial to predict and counter any potential harmful changes. READ MORE

4. 3. Urban tree canopy mapping -an open source deep learning approach

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Tobias Rydlinge; [2023]
   Keywords : Geography; GIS; AI; deep learning; urban trees; remote sensing; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Urban trees have an important role to provide ecosystem services and to make our cities greener and more sustainable. The changing climate and densification of cities make it even more valuable to preserve and investigate in urban trees. READ MORE

5. 4. Petrography of impactites from the Dellen impact structure, Sweden

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

   Author : Robert Mroczek; [2023]
   Keywords : Dellen; Impact; structure; magnetite; apatite; shock waves; shock-metamorphic; features; Impactite; petrography; scanning electron microscope; SEM; geology; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Identification and characterization of shock-metamorphic features in hypervelocity impact craters is important for our understanding of how shock waves interact with geologic materials and how impact craters form, which in turn is essential to our understanding of what role impact cratering played in the development of our solar system. Of particular interest are accessory minerals like apatite, which contains various volatiles that can affect the atmosphere of a body, or magnetite whose magnetic properties constitute a remote sensing indicator which allows us to study and understand the internal structures of distant bodies.

6. 5. Determination of semi-aerobic landfill suitability in tropical developing countries using land surface temperature : A case study of an unmanaged open dump in transition in Yangon City region, Myanmar

   University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för ekoteknik- och hållbart byggande

   Author : Václav Pánek; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Population growth rate increases rapidly, which reflects on Municipal Solid Waste(MSW) generation rates and the accumulation in unmanaged open dumps and landfills in developing countries. Consequences of improper MSW management and treatment are not only local or regional but global since Methane (CH4) emissions are responsible for a notable part of the total anthropogenic CH4 emissions.
