Book excerpt: Sudan as a Sahelian country faced numerous drought periods resulting in famine and mass immigration. Spatial data on dynamics of land use and land cover is scarce and/or almost nonexistent. The study area in the North Kordofan State is located in the centre of Sudan and falls in the Sahelian eco-climatic zone. The region generally yields reasonable harvests of rainfed crops and the grasslands supports plenty of livestock. But any attempts to develop medium- to longterm strategies of sustainable land management have been hampered by the impacts of drought and desertification over a long period of time. This study aims to determine and analyse the dynamics of change of land use/land cover classes. The study attempts also to improve classification accuracy by using different data transformation methods like PCA, TCA and CA. In addition it tries to investigate the most reliable methods of pre-classification and/or post-classification change detection. The research also attempts to assess the desertification process using vegetation cover as an indicator. Preliminary mapping of major soil types is also an objective of this study. Landsat data of MSS 187/51 acquired on 01.01.1973 and ETM+ 174/51 acquired on 16.01.2001 were used. Visual interpretation in addition to digital image processing was applied to process the imagery for determining land use/land cover classes for the recent and reference image. Pre- and post-classification change detection methods were used to detect changes in land use/land cover classes in the study area. Pre-classification methods include image differencing, PC and Change Vector Analysis. Georeferenced soil samples were analysed to measure physical and chemical parameters. The measured values of these soil properties were integrated with the results of land use/ land cover classification. The major LULC classes present in the study area are forest, farm on sand, farm on clay, fallow on sand, fallow on clay, woodyland, mixed woodland, grassland,

Book Synopsis Historical Land Use/Land Cover Classification Using Remote Sensing by : Wafi Al-Fares
Download or read book Historical Land Use/Land Cover Classification Using Remote Sensing written by Wafi Al-Fares and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-25 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the development of remote sensing techniques focuses greatly on construction of new sensors with higher spatial and spectral resolution, it is advisable to also use data of older sensors (especially, the LANDSAT-mission) when the historical mapping of land use/land cover and monitoring of their dynamics are needed. Using data from LANDSAT missions as well as from Terra (ASTER) Sensors, the authors shows in his book maps of historical land cover changes with a focus on agricultural irrigation projects. The kernel of this study was whether, how and to what extent applying the various remotely sensed data that were used here, would be an effective approach to classify the historical and current land use/land cover, to monitor the dynamics of land use/land cover during the last four decades, to map the development of the irrigation areas, and to classify the major strategic winter- and summer-irrigated agricultural crops in the study area of the Euphrates River Basin.

This book was released on 2019-08-29 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book focuses on remote sensing (RS) and geographical information systems (GIS) in Iraq. The environmental applications include monitoring and mapping soil salinity and prediction of soil properties, monitoring and mapping of land threats, proximal sensing for soil monitoring and soil fertility, spatiotemporal land use/cover, agricultural drought monitoring, hydrological applications including spatial rainfall distribution, surface runoff and drought control, geo-morphometric analysis and flood simulation, hydrologic and hydraulic modelling and the effective management of water resources. Also, this book assesses the impacts of climate change on natural resources using both RS and GIS, as well as other applications, covering different parts of Iraq. The book chapters include tens of maps extracted from the remotely sensed datasets, in addition to tables and statistical relations obtained from the results of the studies of the chapters' authors. These studies have been conducted in different parts of Iraq; in the north (Kurdistan region) with its mountainous and undulating lands, in western parts which have desert soils, and in central and southern Iraq where there are salty soils, dunes, wetlands, and marshes. The book is written by distinguished scientists from Iraq, China, USA, Italy, Iran, Germany, and the Czech Republic who are interested in the Iraqi environment. The book is therefore a useful source of information and knowledge on Iraqi environment for graduate students, researchers, policy planners, and stakeholders in Iraq as well as similar regions.

Book Synopsis Applications of Space Techniques on the Natural Hazards in the MENA Region by : Mashael M. Al Saud
Download or read book Applications of Space Techniques on the Natural Hazards in the MENA Region written by Mashael M. Al Saud and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-04-29 with total page 631 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces a comprehensive understanding in the use of space techniques in natural hazards and risk management in the MENA Region. The book is based on different case-studies from 25 MENA countries, and will be useful in highlighting the issues from all aspects. In recent years the number of natural hazard events has increased in the MENA Region. This is exacerbated by the changing climate and extreme climate events, as well as a large increase in the population in this area. Disastrous events occur on a yearly basis characterized by a vulnerability of physical processes. Floods, earthquakes, and mass movement result in severe damage to property and livelihoods, and have devastating effects upon the environment. These events cause severe financial losses, which on an annual basis, can exceed millions of dollars. The predication, assessment and monitoring approaches remain inadequate in managing these hazards and in mitigating their impacts, but with the development of space techniques and geo-information systems, these situations can now be better managed. The miscellany of satellite images, with different spatial and temporal resolutions, enable the detection of terrain features and provide indications of potential natural risks. This book will of interest to stakeholders, including field experts, academics, researchers and decision makers.

This book was released on 2012-02-24 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Cordillera Central der Dominikanischen Republik ist eine Quelle wichtiger natürlicher Ressourcen – vor allem Wasser – für dieses karibische Land. Im oberen Einzugsgebiet des Río Yaque del Norte wurde im Laufe des 20. Jahrhunderts ein großer Teil der natürlichen Wälder abgeholzt und durch Weide- und Ackerland sowie Sekundärvegetation ersetzt. Entwaldung und nicht nachhaltige Landnutzung auf den steilen Hängen dieses Gebietes haben zu Erosion und Landdegradierung geführt. Es gibt aber auch noch verschiedene primäre Bergwälder, darunter kleine Nebelwaldbereiche mit bedrohten endemischen Arten. Fernerkundungsdaten sind eine unverzichtbare Quelle für flächendeckende räumliche Informationen, die als Basis für Raumnutzungspläne und den Schutz bedrohter Ökosysteme benötigt werden. Die Nutzbarkeit von Satellitendaten mittlerer Auflösung (z.B. Landsat) für die Kartierung der Vegetationstypen des Untersuchungsgebietes ist begrenzt, weil das kleinräumige Mosaik verschiedener Landbedeckungstypen (wie in vielen tropischen Gebirgsbereichen) zu einem großen Anteil von Mischpixeln in diesen Daten führt. Die neue Generation kommerzieller hochauflösender Satelliten wie IKONOS (1 m bis 4 m Auflösung) ermöglicht eine detailliertere Kartierung von kleineren Interessensgebieten, aber die automatische Klassifizierung räumlich hochaufgelöster Daten beinhaltet auch neue Herausforderungen. Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich daher hauptsächlich mit der Optimierung von Methoden zur Ausnutzung der räumlichen Information in hochauflösenden Satellitendaten für die Kartierung von tropischen Bergwäldern und anderen Landoberflächen.
