Estimating area of vector polygons on spherical and ellipsoidal earth models with application in estimating regional carbon flows
Estimating area of polygons on the Earth’s surface is required in many fields in earth science. In the field of carbon modelling, one application of estimating polygons’ area is to estimate carbon flows for regions. This thesis aims to develop a methodology to estimate area of a polygon on a spherical/ellipsoidal surface applied to the problem to estimate carbon flows in regions. It is common th
