  1. 1. A comparison of remote sensed semi-arid grassland vegetation anomalies detected using MODIS and Sentinel-3, with anomalies in ground-based eddy covariance flux measurements.

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

    Författare :Jason Craig Joubert; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Geography; GIS; Anomaly Detection; Remote Sensing; fAPAR; GDMP; GPP; MODIS; Sentinel-3; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Remote sensed vegetation biophysical indicators are derived from various sensors and methods and contribute to the quantification of vegetation growth. They are used as inputs to early warning systems for crop yield estimation, thus improving crop management and food security. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The Effect of Natural Resource Shocks on Violence, Crime, and Drug Cartels Presence in Mexico

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Författare :Miriam Cavazos Hernandez; Balasurya Sivakumar; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Natural Resources; Conflict; Mexico; Business and Economics;

    Sammanfattning : We examine the effect of natural resource shocks on violence by drug cartels at the municipality level in rural Mexico from 2003 to 2017. For this, we use an Instrumental Variable setup by instrumenting our main explanatory variable vegetation density with rainfall. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Evaluating the benefit-cost  ratio of groundwater abstraction for additional irrigation water on global scale.

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Mark- och vattenteknik

    Författare :Mohammad Faiz Alam; [2016]
    Nyckelord :Groundwater; Irrigation; Abstraction; Cost-benefit analysis; Global;

    Sammanfattning : Projections show that to feed a growing population which is expected to reach 9.1 billion in 2050 would require raising overall food production by some 70 percent by 2050. One of the possible ways to increase agricultural production is through increasing yields by expanding irrigation. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Development of a Flood Model Based on Globally-Available Satellite Data for the Papaloapan River, Mexico

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Janis Kreiselmeier; [2015]
    Nyckelord :Flood inundation modelling; shuttle radar topography mission SRTM ; light detection and ranging LiDAR ; LISFLOOD-FP; Remote sensing; Översvämningsmodellering; shuttle radar topography mission SRTM ; light detection and ranging LiDAR ; LISFLOOD-FP; Fjärranalys;

    Sammanfattning : Flood inundation modelling is highly dependent on an accurate representation of floodplain topography. These  remotely  sensed  accurate  data  are  often  not  available  or  expensive,  especially  in  developing countries. LÄS MER

  7. 5. In search of differential Space

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, KTH/Arkitektur

    Författare :Emelie Holmberg; [2013]
    Nyckelord :architecture; urban planning. development; Mexico; Sida; Specificity; diversity; participation; displacement; differential; right to space; mångfald; Arkitektur; utveckling; stadsplanering; boende; sida; specificitet; delaktighet; rätten till rummet;

    Sammanfattning : The aim is to explore indigenous life situation and by identifying problems in service and infrastructure,health and social aspects provide suggestions on how the current situation can be improved.The goal is to provide a proposal for a plan for a new community with homes that are adapted to theindigenous people’s needs and unique tradition.
