  1. 1. Influence of structural complexity of the Rumperöd forest on evapotranspiration

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

    Författare :Madeleine Durdek; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Forest structural complexity; evapotranspiration; vapour pressure deficit; eddy covariance; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The influence of Forest Structural Complexity (FSC) on evapotranspiration (ET) was investigated in a mixed forest of Southern Sweden where micrometeorological Eddy Covariance (EC) measurements were conducted for the years 2015 to 2022. For each year, the top 25% of Vapour Pressure Deficit (VPD) were selected to emphasize the response of ET to the driest atmospheric conditions. LÄS MER

  2. 2. 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. 3. Evaluating drought impacts on ecosystem water use efficiency of three different boreal forest sites

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Författare :Tim Schacherl; [2021]
    Nyckelord :flux data; carbon uptake; water deficit; Sweden; drought resistance; nitrogen; Eddy covariance;

    Sammanfattning : European boreal forests are the biomes most affected by climate change. For example, extreme weather events such as droughts are expected to become more frequent and severe. Especially in the summer months, droughts can drastically impact the carbon and water exchanges of boreal forests. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Modelling gross primary production in semi-arid regions: effects on carbon uptake of intensive agriculture in southern Kenya

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

    Författare :Malin Ahlbäck; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Physical Geography; Ecosystem Analysis; GPP; Africa; Kenya; Land cover changes; Cropland; Remote sensing; Sentinel-2; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Background and aim: Gross primary production (GPP) is the largest global carbon (C) flux and an important component for counteracting anthropogenic CO2 emissions, understanding vegetation dynamics, and sustaining universal human standards. Africa plays a prominent role in the global C cycle, though our understanding of GPP dynamics is largely hampered by a paucity of ground-based observations. LÄS MER

  5. 5. A remote-sensing approach to studying drought resistance in Swedish old-growth and production forests

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

    Författare :Julika Wolf; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Physical Geography and Ecosystem Analysis; drought impacts; old-growth forests; forest management; remote sensing; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Boreal forest ecosystems are predicted to experience hotter and drier summers due to climate change, leading to more frequently reduced soil water availability and an increased risk of droughts, as was already the case in Northern Europe during the severe summer drought of 2018. Prolonged water stress in forest ecosystems can lead to impacts ranging from reduced photosynthesis to forest dieback. LÄS MER
