  1. 11. In-vivo imaging of root growth in response to localized mechanical stress

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Leah Eitelberg; [2022]
    Keywords : kinematics analysis; time-lapse imaging; root growth rate; root curvature; soil heterogenety; local mechanical stress;

    Abstract : By taking up nutrients and water, root growth has an important influence on plant growth and productivity. Thereby, root growth is influenced by its surrounding soil conditions, which vary spatially even on a small scale. Hence, different parts of the root system are exposed to different penetration resistances in the soil. READ MORE

    Abstract : Livsmedelsproduktionen står för ungefär 26 procent av världens globala utsläpp av växthusgaser och har därmed en stor inverkan på planetens klimat och ekosystem. Sverige importerar majoriteten av de grönsaker och frukter som konsumeras i landet. READ MORE

  4. 13. One Square Meter Yield: A Hydroponic System Design

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Hithaishi Dayananda; [2021]
    Keywords : Hydroponics; Urban Food Resilience; Modular Design; Sustainability;

    Abstract : Vertical hydroponic farming is a developing sector that has the potential to mitigate the adverse effects of conventional farming while also meeting the demands of rapidly urbanizing populations. The global food system is responsible for up to 30% of anthropogenic GHG emissions, with primary production accounting for the majority of these emissions. READ MORE

    University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för informationssystem och –teknologi

    Author : Ayad Shaif; [2021]
    Keywords : Predictive Maintenance; Internet of Things; Machine Learning; RNN; Forecasting; Classification; LSTM; CNN-LSTM; GRU; Sensor Drift Fault;

    Abstract : The success of Internet of Things solutions allowed the establishment of new applications such as smart hydroponic agriculture. One typical problem in such an application is the rapid degradation of the deployed sensors. READ MORE

  6. 15. Assessing the Potential of Hydroponic Farming to Reduce Food Imports: The Case of Lettuce Production in Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Rouzbeh Taghizadeh; [2021]
    Keywords : Sustainable Development; Urban Agriculture; Hydroponics; Food Import; Lettuce Production;

    Abstract : Many studies have investigated the issue of feeding the world’s growing population from different perspectives. Conventional agricultural methods usually have small production yields while requiring large amounts of scarce and unevenly distributed resources such as farmland and water. READ MORE
