1. The mutual interaction between the time-mean atmospheric circulation and continental-scale ice sheets
Sammanfattning : Geomorphological evidence of glaciations exist for the Last Glacial Maximum (about 20 kyr ago). At this time, both North America and Eurasia were covered by extensive ice sheets which are both absent today. LÄS MER
2. The spectral reflectance of coniferous tree stands and of barley influenced by stress : an analysis of field measured spectral data
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the spectral signatures for vegetation. Knowledge about the spectral characteristics of different vegetation types is imperative for an efficient use of existing remote sensing systems, and also to provide guidelines for sensor development. LÄS MER
3. Palaeo-ice streams in the north-eastern Laurentide Ice Sheet
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a palaeoglaciological study aimed to determine the location, geometry and temporal evolution of palaeo-ice streams of the north-easternmost Laurentide Ice Sheet. The work was accomplished through the geomorphological interpretation of satellite imagery over 3. LÄS MER
4. Mountain centered icefields in northern Scandinavia
Sammanfattning : Mountain centered glaciers have played a major role throughout the last three million years in the Scandinavian mountains. The climatic extremes, like the present warm interglacial or cold glacial maxima, are very short-lived compared to the periods of intermediate climate conditions, characterized by the persistence of mountain based glaciers and ice fields of regional size.

5. Forest decline in South Central Ethiopia : Extent, history and process
Sammanfattning : This study presents the extent, history and process of forest decline in Awassa watershed, south central Ethiopia. By combining different data sources such as satellite images, social surveys and historical documents, forest decline is described quantitatively and qualitatively and the main causes behind this process are identified.
