1. 16. Ecosystem services from woody vegetation in East African rangelands

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

   Author : Anna Linnéa Elisabeth Swärd; [2023]
   Keywords : dryland ecosystems; rangelands; rangelands; woody vegetation; restoration; Karamoja; West Pokot; pastoralists; agro-pastoralists; East Africa;

   Abstract : Drylands cover nearly half of the Earth's land surface and are dominated by croplands and rangelands. Dryland ecosystems worldwide are affected by land degradation. Increased population pressure, climate change and unsustainable land use threaten essential ecosystem services and adversely impact people’s livelihoods and well-being. READ MORE

3. 17. Prediction of the gain in classification performance from combining multiple imaging modalities

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

   Author : Roman Denkin; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In this work, we investigate the relationship between different image modalities and classification performance, aiming to predict the potential gain in classification accuracy when combining multiple modalities. We analyze mathematical and statistical measures and develop novel reconstruction measures (RMSE and RSSIM) to assess information distribution between different image modalities. READ MORE

4. 18. Attack Surface Management : Principles for simplifying the complexity of OT security

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik
