Nation-Wide Clear-Cut Mapping in Sweden Using ALOS PALSAR Strip Images [PDF]
Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) Phased Array L-band type Synthetic Aperture Radar (PALSAR) backscatter images with 50 m pixel size (strip images) at HV-polarization were used to map clear-cuts at a regional and national level in Sweden.

High Spatial Resolution Ensemble Species Distribution Modeling of <i>Rhodnius prolixus</i>, Vector of Chagas Disease, in Western Venezuela. [PDF]
Abstract Rhodnius prolixus is the most common and abundant kissing bug found in Royal and other native palms from western Venezuela. R. prolixus is a dominant vector of Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite causing Chagas disease. Here we use species distribution models (SDMs) to estimate habitat suitability for R. prolixus.

Palsar i Vissátvuopmi: Kartering och klassificering utifrån DEM-raster [PDF]
Palsar är torvkullar med en kärna av permafrost som förekommer i subarktiska miljöer med diskontinuerlig permafrost. Palsarna är mycket känsliga för klimatförändringar och har minskat snabbt till följd av den globala uppvärmningen, med bland annat ...
