  2. 2. Tree Species Classification : Analyzing Multitemporal Satellite Imagery and Multispectral Airborne Laser Scanning Data

    Författare :Arvid Axelsson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Tree species composition of forests affects the whole ecosystem and is part of the information needed for an efficient planning of forest management. This thesis explores how recent developments in remote sensing can provide more accurate tree species mapping. LÄS MER

  3. 3. The use of a satellite-derived cloud climatology for studying cloud-aerosol processes and the performance of regional cloud climate simulations

    Författare :Karl-Göran Karlsson; Erland Källen; Jon-Egil Kristjansson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Clouds and climate; satellite cloud climatology; validation of clouds; clouds and aerosols; Meteorology; Meteorologi;

    Sammanfattning : The entry of satellite-derived decadal cloud datasets with homogeneous coverage in time and space enables studies not possible before. This thesis presents two such applications. The first study deals with cloud-aerosol processes and the second with an evaluation of cloud simulations from a regional climate model. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Landscape from space : geographical aspects on scale, regionalization and change detection

    Författare :Ola Hall; Risto Kalliola; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Regionalization; Scale; Change detection; Multiscale analysis; Objectspecific analysis; Watershed transformation; Landscape; Satellite data; Geography; Complex systems theory; Fuzzy set theory; Multicriteria-evaluation.; Human geography; Kulturgeografi; Human Geography; kulturgeografi;

    Sammanfattning : Landscapes are complex systems composed of multiscale hierarchically organized entities that interact within unique spatial and temporal scales. These interactions result in scaledependent spatial patterns that visually change depending upon the scale at which they are observed. LÄS MER
