  1. 1. Where there is road, there is fire (influence): An exploratory study on the influence of roads in the spatial patterns of Swedish wildfires of 2018

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Gabriel Romeo Ferriols Pavico; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Geography; GIS; Wildfire; Fire Spatial Patterns; Road; Conformity; FWI; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This study focuses on the Swedish wildfire season of 2018, when the country incurred ten times more than the average burnt area that occurred in previous years. The study aims to address a broad research question: Do roads influence the size of the burned area? This study fills the gap in research on the effects of roads in the spatial patterns of wildfires.

    Nyckelord :Wildfire evacuations; evacuation simulation; wildfire simulation; WUI-NITY; FARSITE; Prometheus; Swedish wildfire evacuations; geo-spatial data; computer modelling; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : WUI-NITY is a computer modelling program for wildfire evacuation simulations. This thesis examines the applicability of WUI-NITY to locations in Sweden. The program was tested at example locations representing the Swedish landscape. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The influence of climate, population density, tree species and land cover on fire pattern in mainland Portugal

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Luis Gomes; [2022]
    Nyckelord :GIS; forest fires; burnt Area; characteristic fire size; spatial analysis; mainland Portugal; FWI; Eucalyptus globulus; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Forest fires in mainland Portugal are becoming more extreme, resulting in increasingly larger burnt areas and tragic human fatalities, as was shown by the 2017 fires. Research shows that there are many natural factors contributing to such fire vulnerability conditions, such as climate, fuel continuity, forest structure, tree species types, amongst others, that are intertwined with anthropic factors than can intensity the fire vulnerability.

  7. 5. Automatic Segmentation of Skeleton in Whole-Body MR Images

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Författare :Anders Hedström; [2013]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) has developed as a widespread technique to examine various body parts and diagnose a wide range of diseases. MRI can often be superior to other imaging techniques such as Computed Tomography(CT) since it does not use ionizing radiation and can give a clearer image of soft tissue. LÄS MER
