  1. 1. Evaluating a new hydraulic implementation in LPJ-GUESS for three sites in north Europe

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Carl Holmquist; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; LPJ-GUESS; drought; sensitivity analysis; evapotranspiration; gross primary production; hydraulic parameters; boreal forest.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Drought is projected to increase in frequency and intensity and impacts trees with increased water stress and increased mortality rate. Water stresses can cause hydraulic failure-related mortality or carbon starvation due to tree species having different strategies to deal with water stresses. READ MORE

  3. 2. Heart- and Sapwood Segmentation on Hyperspectral Images using Deep Learning

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Samuel Hallin; Simon Samnegård; [2023]
    Keywords : Computer Vision; Hyperspectral Imaging; Heartwood; Sapwood; Deep Learning; Segmentation; Dimensionality Reduction; PCA; PLS; SVM; U-NET; U-within-U-Net;

    Abstract : For manufacturers in the wood industry, an important way to make the production more effective is to automate the process of detecting defects and different attributes on boards. One important attribute on most boards is heartwood and sapwood. READ MORE

  4. 3. Endophytic fungi in living trees - are communities affected more by tree species, tree age, or geographic origin?

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Lisen Källman; [2022-08-16]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Endophytic fungi are ubiquitous in living vascular plants and have been identified in most terrestrial environments. The endophytes may have various ecological roles such as commensals, symbionts and latent invaders. READ MORE

  5. 4. Water mapping in Scots pine stands after thinning

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Michalina Maria Grabowska; [2022]
    Keywords : Scots pine; Pinus sylvestris; drought; thinning; root system; water uptake; heavy water;

    Abstract : Climate change is an ongoing issue in various fields, including forestry. More frequent and severe droughts have been already noted around the world, also in Europe. Visible reduction in available water in forests has adverse consequences such as increased tree mortality, higher vulnerability and smaller growth. READ MORE

  6. 5. Reduction of Set-recovery of Surface densified Scots Pine by Furfuryl Alcohol

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Träteknik

    Author : Lei Han; [2019]
    Keywords : surface densification; set-recovery; hardness; furfuryl alcohol;

    Abstract :  For wood products such as flooring and worktop, only one surface is normally exposed in their use, and the mechanical properties like hardness and wearing resistance of that surface is then important. Since mechanical properties are strongly related to the density, surface densification, i.e. READ MORE
