1. 1. Exploring Urban Land Cover Changes and the Effect on Nocturnal Air Temperature Dynamics in Helsingborg - A temperature modeling made with TAPM

   Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Författare :Amanda Bäck; [2023-10-09]
   Nyckelord :Nocturnal Air Temperature; Intra-Urban Heat Island; Land Cover Classification; Deep learning; The Air Pollution Model TAPM ; Land Cover Change;

   Sammanfattning : In light of increasing global temperatures, urban areas face growing challenges related to heat stress. Alterations in land cover (LC) within cities contribute to changes in the intra-urban climate, predominantly driven by the replacement of vegetated surfaces with impermeable materials. LÄS MER

3. 2. Land Use and Land Cover Changes in Europe and the Impact on Near-Surface Wind Speed in Sweden

   Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Författare :Nils Philipp Stange; [2023-08-18]
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Investigations of Land use and land cover change (LULCC) have recently become of increasing interest. This trend occurs not only based of the importance of biogeochemical processes such as carbon sequestration, but also because of their climate impacts caused by changed biogeophysical properties.

4. 3. Ecosystem services from woody vegetation in East African rangelands

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

   Författare :Anna Linnéa Elisabeth Swärd; [2023]
   Nyckelord :dryland ecosystems; rangelands; rangelands; woody vegetation; restoration; Karamoja; West Pokot; pastoralists; agro-pastoralists; East Africa;

   Sammanfattning : Drylands cover nearly half of the Earth's land surface and are dominated by croplands and rangelands. Dryland ecosystems worldwide are affected by land degradation. Increased population pressure, climate change and unsustainable land use threaten essential ecosystem services and adversely impact people’s livelihoods and well-being. LÄS MER

5. 4. Using forest reflectance modelling to estimate albedo for narrow-view satellites

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

   Författare :Nick Bergmans; [2023]
   Nyckelord :satellite; remote sensing; albedo; surface reflectance; vegetation; forest; machine learning; albedo estimation; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : Surface albedo estimations from remote sensing are invaluable for energy balance descrip- tions in climate research. The aim of this work is to evaluate the possibility of using Sentinel-2 satellite data to get the total albedo of a small, vegetated area. LÄS MER

7. 5. The effect of management strategies on carbon uptake of highway ancillary areas in Northern Germany

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

   Författare :Maura Karmann; [2023]
   Nyckelord :InVEST- model; Highway ancillary areas; carbon pool estimations; management factors; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : Carbon storage capacity estimations of terrestrial vegetation are necessary to understand the limit of possible carbon emissions. General approximations, of a landscapes carbon pool capacity, can be performed using the InVEST-model. LÄS MER
