Estimating leaf area index in savanna vegetation using remote sensing and inverse modelling (2005)
Thesis
Bowyer, P. Estimating leaf area index in savanna vegetation using remote sensing and inverse modelling. (Thesis). University of Salford

Leaf area index (LAI), defined as the one sided green leaf area per unit ground area, is a key parameter in ecosystem process models. Owing to the large area of the earth's surface that they occupy, savanna ecosystems represent the third largest terr...

Designing a geographic visual information system (GVIS) to support participation in urban planning (2004)
Thesis
Zhang, X. Designing a geographic visual information system (GVIS) to support participation in urban planning. (Thesis). University of Salford, UK

The growth of the international movement to involve the public in urban planning urges us to find new ways to achieve this. Recent studies have identified information communication technologies (ICT) as a mechanism to support such movement. It has...
