  1. 1. Automation of forest road inventory using computer vision and machine learning

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Jacques de Flon; [2023]
    Keywords : Computer vision; Machine Learning; Image recognition; forestry; road inventory; pothole; gravel road;

    Abstract : There are around 300, 000 kilometer of gravel roads throughout the Swedish countryside, used every day by common people and companies. These roads face constant wear due to harsh weather as well as from heavy traffic, and thus, regular maintenance is required to keep up the road standard. READ MORE

  3. 2. Towards Affordable Sodium-Ion Batteries : Mechanochemical Synthesis and Electrochemical Assessment of Iron-Based Fluorophosphate Cathode Material

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Ratna Juwita; [2023]
    Keywords : Sodium-ion batteries; electrical energy storage EES ; iron oxide; positive electrode; material characterization; electrochemical; discharge capacity.; Natriumjonbatterier; elektrisk energilagring EES ; järnoxid; positiv elektrod; materialkarakterisering; elektrokemisk; urladdningskapacitet;

    Abstract : An urgent transformation from fossil fuels to cleaner energy sources to combat climate change has led to the utilization of renewable energies like solar, wind, and tidal power. However, the intermittency of these sources hinders their wider implementation. To address this, large-scale electrical energy storage (EES) systems are needed. READ MORE

  4. 3. Increased carbon sequestration of actively restored tropical forests in Sabah, Malaysia : a comparison of natural regeneration and active restoration

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Johan Engström; [2023]
    Keywords : Degraded tropical forest; Active restoration; Carbon sequestration; Natural regeneration; Enrichment planting; Biomass accumulation;

    Abstract : As restoration with assisted natural regeneration and enrichment planting becomes a more important and popular method to restore ecosystem services and mitigate negative climate effects, these treatments and their effectiveness is heavily debated. There are three main groups of opinions regarding restoration, one is that humans actively need to help nature recover and the second is that nature itself does a better job without our help and the third is somewhere in between.
