  1. 6. Remote Sensing of Woodland Structure and Composition in the Sudano-Sahelian zone : Application of WorldView-2 and Landsat 8

    Författare :Martin Karlson; Madelene Ostwald; Tina Schmid Neset; Heather Reese; Frédéric Achard Forobs; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Remote sensing; Sudano-Sahel; woodland; agroforestry; WorldView-2; Landsat 8; tree attributes; tree canopy cover; aboveground biomass; Random Forest; Fjärranalys; Sudano-Sahel; woodland; WorldView-2; Landsat 8; trädattribut; trädtäcke; biomassa; Random Forest;

    Sammanfattning : Woodlands constitute the subsistence base of the majority of people in the Sudano-Sahelian zone (SSZ), but low availability of in situ data on vegetation structure and composition hampers research and monitoring. This thesis explores the utility of remote sensing for mapping and analysing vegetation, primarily trees, in the SSZ. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Monitoring biodiversity in cultural landscapes: development of remote sensing- and GIS-based methods

    Författare :Jonas Dalmayne; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :Remote sensing; statistical modeling; spatial scales; partial least squares; support vector machines; grazed grasslands; LULC; HySpex; Worldview-2; Landsat; heterogeneity; landscape complexity; plant species diversity;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, I explore the relationships between structural and compositional landscape properties, and species diversity, using remotely sensed data on a variety of spatial scales. The thesis shows that increased landscape heterogeneity, measured using environmental and spectral variables that were used both separately and combined, is generally positively related to plant species richness.

    Sammanfattning : This study examines literary portrayals of existential problems relating to women’s experiences of being denied as subjects, and how literature and writing can offer ways of reflecting upon questions of being a subject and lived forms of resistance. The material consists of six contemporary Swedish novels. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Moments of meaning – Towards an assessment of protective and risk factors for existential vulnerability among young women with mental ill-health concerns : A mixed methods project in clinical psychology of religion and existential health

    Sammanfattning : The present sequential mixed-methods project was conducted in the area of clinical psychology of religion and existential health. The central aim of the project was to investigate clinically relevant areas for an assessment of protective and risk factors for existential vulnerability and dysfunctional existential meaning-making in a clinical sample of young women with mental ill-health concerns.
