  1. 31. Development of a deep learning method for soil moisture estimation at high spatial and temporal resolution using satellite data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Nicklas Simonsen; [2021]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem Analysis; Machine Learning; Deep Learning; Recurrent Neural Network; LSTM; Soil Moisture; Remote Sensing; SAR; Sentinel-1; Sentinel-2; ISMN; ICOS: Geomatics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Soil moisture (SM) is an essential climate variable that controls fundamental hydrological and climatic processes. Soil moisture products derived from microwave remote sensing often provide measurements at low spatial resolution and incomplete temporal records. READ MORE

  3. 32. Cropland and tree cover mapping using Sentinel-2 data in an agroforestry landscape, Burkina Faso

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Ntandokazi Masimula; [2020-06-29]
    Keywords : Sentinel-2; Cropland mask; Tree cover estimation; Burkina Faso; Agroforestry; Random Forest;

    Abstract : Sentinel-2, with high spatial resolution bands and increased number of spectral channels, has provided increased capabilities for vegetation mapping. Cropland masks within heterogeneous areas such as the Sudano-Sahel zone have become useful for monitoring landscapes. READ MORE

  4. 33. Modelling gross primary production in semi-arid regions: effects on carbon uptake of intensive agriculture in southern Kenya

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Malin Ahlbäck; [2020]
    Keywords : Physical Geography; Ecosystem Analysis; GPP; Africa; Kenya; Land cover changes; Cropland; Remote sensing; Sentinel-2; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Background and aim: Gross primary production (GPP) is the largest global carbon (C) flux and an important component for counteracting anthropogenic CO2 emissions, understanding vegetation dynamics, and sustaining universal human standards. Africa plays a prominent role in the global C cycle, though our understanding of GPP dynamics is largely hampered by a paucity of ground-based observations. READ MORE

  5. 34. 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

  6. 35. A Scalable Approach for Detecting Dumpsites using Automatic Target Recognition with Feature Selection and SVM through Satellite Imagery

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för visuell information och interaktion
