21. Detecting bark beetle damage with Sentinel-2 multi-temporal data in Sweden
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : The European spruce bark beetle is considered as one of the most destructive forest insects to Norway spruce trees in Europe. Climate change may increase the frequency and intensity of bark beetle outbreaks. It is therefore of vital importance to detect the bark beetle outbreaks and take it under control to prevent further damages. READ MORE

22. Vegetation phenology derived using the plant phenology index and the normalized difference vegetation index for the Balkan peninsula, south-eastern Europe
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : This study analyses the performance of the satellite derived Plant Phenology Index (PPI) against the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) for estimating start of season (SOS) and end of season (EOS) of vegetation growth in part of the Balkan Peninsula, Southeastern Europe (2000 – 2016). Results revealed that PPI and NDVI differ considerably; SOS and EOS may diverge by more than one month between the two indices. READ MORE

23. Analysing the vegetation condition during the 2017 and 2018 growing seasons using indices derived from Sentinel-2 data : a case study over southern Sweden
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : The summer of 2017 was climatically close to normal in southern Sweden, whereas the following summer was unusually warm and dry. These two years therefore make an interesting case study for investigating the impact of severe drought on vegetation, particularly when considering that climate change is predicted to lead to an increased frequency of drought events in the study area.

24. PlantSpec : an R package for interactive analysis of spectral data for highthroughput plant phenotyping
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)Abstract : Hyperspectral phenotyping is a promising high-throughput plant phenotyping method that addresses the phenotyping bottleneck, in fields of plant science like crop improvement or study of plant diseases. However, high-throughput hyperspectral data poses a data management and analysis problem due to the sheer volume of data generated in the data collection process. READ MORE

25. Comparison of multi-temporal and multispectral Sentinel-2 and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle imagery for crop type mapping
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Precision Agriculture aims to maximize crop production and the efficiency of land use to meet the increased demand for food while minimizing environmental impact and economic cost of food production. Crop type maps are needed for Precision Agriculture applications and remote sensing techniques are an efficient way to produce this information. READ MORE
