  2. 1. Observation strategies for current and future geodetic very long baseline interferometry

    Author : Niko Petteri Kareinen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; VLBI; automated analysis; Intensives; Earth rotation; VGOS; GGOS;

    Abstract : Geodetic Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) is an essential technique for space geodesy. It is uniquely capable of simultaneously observing all Earth Orientation Parameters (EOP) and directly giving access to the Earth’s rotation angle (related to Universal Time, UT1). READ MORE

  4. 2. Estimation of Forest Biomass and Faraday Rotation using Ultra High Frequency Synthetic Aperture Radar

    Author : Gustaf Sandberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Forest Biomass; Ultra High Frequency; Faraday Rotation; Synthetic Aperture Radar;

    Abstract : Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data in the Ultra High Frequency (UHF; 300 MHz – 3 GHz)) band have been shown to be strongly dependent of forest biomass, which is a poorly estimated variable in the global carbon cycle. In this thesis UHF-band SAR data from the fairly flat hemiboreal test site Remningstorp in southern Sweden were analysed. READ MORE

  5. 3. Geodetic analysis for the Very Long Baseline Interferometry Global Observing System

    Author : Niko Petteri Kareinen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; VLBI; GGOS; VGOS; digital back-ends; Earth rotation; DBBC; automated analysis; EOP; UT1;

    Abstract : Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) is an essential technique forspace-geodesy. It realizes the International Celestial Reference Frame(ICRF) and provides a link between the Earth- and space-fixed coordinatesystems by directly observing all Earth Orientation Parameters (EOP)simultaneously.

  6. 4. Simulations of Coastal Atmospheric Dynamics and Transport Processes

    Author : Ragothaman Sundararajan; Dimitris Melas; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; coastal atmosphere; dynamics; transport; Lagrangian particle dispersion model; mesoscale model; turbulence; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Meteorology; meteorologi;

    Abstract : The marine atmosphere can be highly variable in space and time, and the coastal terrain plays a crucial role in influencing its properties. These, in turn, determine the atmospheric transport in the coastal zone. READ MORE

  7. 5. Deformation zones in models and nature

    Author : Katarina Sofia Persson; Carl Ehlers; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; mineralogi; petrologi och tektonik; Mineral Chemistry; Petrology and Tectonics;

    Abstract : Field studies encounter several complicating factors not studied in the models. Examples are oblique convergence, heterogeneous materials and thermal softening by intruding magmas. READ MORE
