  • Identifying and classifying slum areas using remote sensing

    • Authors: Stein, A. ; Kohli, D.;  Advisor: -;  Participants: - (2015)

  • Thesis taking UN-HABITAT’s definition of slum household as a basis, this study proposes an ontological framework that conceptualizes slums using morphological indicators of the built environment; demonstrates a case of applicability of GSO and explores the transferability of an OOA method for slum classification developed on a single image area to other image areas; proposes a hierarchical method for slum detection by using a combination of texture and spatial metrics; demonstrates a method to quantify the uncertainties of slum interpretations performed by experts; presents the main research findings and conclusions corresponding to each research objective.

  • Quality assured estimates of forest gross primary production :Integration of flux tower data and a process-based simulator

    • Authors: Stein, A. ; Raj, R.;  Advisor: -;  Participants: - (2016)

  • Thesis provides the detailed method for quantifying the prior distribution of each BIOME-BGC parameter based on literature review and field inventory data; provides procedures for partitioning of GPP with the associated uncertainty from flux tower measurements of net ecosystem exchange; provides the quantification of posterior uncertainty in BIOME-BGC input parameters and simulated GPP by integrating flux tower GPP into BIOME-BGC using a Bayesian statistical method.
