  1. 11. Investigating the response of terrestrial evapotranspiration to droughts in Africa : A combined remote sensing and modeling approach

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Yang Foo; [2023]
    Keywords : earth observation; terrestrial evapotranspiration; drought; vegetation-climate interactions;

    Abstract : Climate change is posing a significant threat to terrestrial ecosystems worldwide, in part due to the more frequent occurrence of extreme climatic events such as droughts. While the importance of drought impacts on vegetation has been widely recognized, the time-dependent characteristics of drought-induced response remain insufficiently understood. READ MORE

  4. 13. Tree growth and field vegetation in forest edge zones on a property in southeast Sweden

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för skog och träteknik (SOT)

    Author : Pieter van Tongeren; [2023]
    Keywords : tree growth; diversity; field vegetation; edge zones; edge effect;

    Abstract : Summary  In the 1990s a new way of thinking about forestry started. One of the effects of the changing silvicultural practices was that the size of clearcuts became smaller. As the felling areas were reduced in size, the areas where young and older forest meet grew, with this also the occurrence of edge zones increased. READ MORE

  5. 14. Importance of Snow in Alpine Plant Ecology : And Remote Sensing Applications in Species Modeling

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Eva Meyer; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Global warming, with pronounced increases toward the poles and high latitudes, has impacts on alpine vegetation. If snow patterns change in response to global warming, snow parameters are predictors of interest in alpine plant species distribution and traits modeling because snow is known to strongly control the local growing conditions of alpine plants.
