1. 1. Evaluation of Crop Water Use and Rice Yield Using Remote Sensing and AquaCrop Model for Three Irrigation Schemes in Sri Lanka

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Veronika Widengren; [2022]
   Keywords : WaPOR; remote sensing; evapotranspiration; crop water productivity; irrigation scheme; AquaCrop; Malwathu Oya; Sri Lanka; paddy rice; humid tropical climate; WaPOR; fjärranalys; evapotranspiration; vattenproduktivitet; bevattningssystem; AquaCrop; Malwathu Oya; Sri Lanka; ris; fuktigt tropiskt klimat;

   Abstract : With a changing climate and an increased competition over water resources for agricultural irrigation, the need to improve crop water productivity using time and cost-efficient methodologies have become critically important. The Malwathu Oya river basin in Sri Lanka is struggling with water scarcity, which threatens food security and the income of farmers. READ MORE

3. 2. Improved Understanding of Water Balance in the Malwathu Oya River Basin Using SWAT and Remote Sensing

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Alexander Fors; [2022]
   Keywords : actual evapotranspiration; Malwathu Oya; remote sensing; Sri Lanka; SWAT modelling; SWAT calibration; WaPOR; water balance; faktisk evapotranspiration; fjärranalys; Malwathu Oya; Sri Lanka; SWAT-modellering; SWAT-kalibrering; vattenbalans; WaPOR;

   Abstract : As the need for climatic data is increasing in times of climate change and water scarcity, remote sensing (RS) and hydrological modelling are ways to battle these problems, especially in data scarce areas. The actual evapotranspiration (ETa) is one of the key parameters when assessing the water balance and a good estimate of this parameter is thus of great importance. READ MORE

4. 3. Holographic Communications Technologies : A qualitative study on the ethical and\or legal challenges based on the stakeholders' perspectives

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för informatik (IK)

   Author : Natalia Giogiou; [2022]
   Keywords : Digital Ethics; Digital Technology; Ethics in Information Digital Technology; Extended Reality; Holographic Communications Technologies; Ethical Design; Value Sensitive Design; Ethical Framework; Ethical Technology Assessment; Human Computer Interaction; Qualitative Research; Επικοινωνίες μέσω ολογραμμάτων; Ηθική Ψηφιακών Μέσων και Πληροφοριακών Συστημάτων; Νομικοί και Ηθικοί Κίνδυνοι Επικοινωνιών μέσω Ολογραμμάτων;

   Abstract : Holographic communications technologies are a new digital technology being currently  developed by companies to be available to the public in the near future. Through holographic  communications technologies, the image of one user located in one place can be captured with  special equipment from different angles, so that its three-dimensional depiction is created  realistically.

5. 4. Effects of afforestation of agricultural land on the water balance in Ethiopian Highlands

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

   Author : Mwala Silumesi; [2022]
   Keywords : acacia decurrens; aquaCrop Mode; afforestation; water balance; teff;

   Abstract : In this study, I examined how land use change affects the partitioning of water and how soil-plant interactions are impacted by yearly rainfall at a stand scale. Even though many studies have been conducted to evaluate the extent of land use change and the economic impacts, few have attempted to study the rapid farmer-driven afforestation with Acacia decurrens and also disaggregated dry, normal and dry seasons at stand scale.

6. 5. Evaluation of Robust Model Building Tools to Improve the Efficiency of Non-linear Mixed Effect Model Building Workflows

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaci

   Author : Karin Norgren; [2021]
   Keywords : Population PK modeling; Pharmacometrics; NLME modeling;

   Abstract : Population PK models aim to describe the change in drug concentration over time for a specific population. The populations in population PK modelling often refer to subjects in a clinical trial of a potential drug candidate. READ MORE
