Combating Land Degradation and Desertification: The Land-Use Planning Quandary

Land Use Planning

Compactness for Regionalization and its Application in Land-Use Planning

Assessment of Land Degradation and Desertification with Use of IMDPA Model (Case Study; Chah-hashm Plain, Iran)

Objective: More than 75 percent of Iran is located in arid and semi-arid then land degradation and desertification are one of the crises ecological. We require a proper understanding of causes and processes of desertification to control the huge phenomenon on the global and regional situation. Because southeast of Iran located in arid land then assessment of desertification is very importance f...

Design and Development of Early Warning System for Desertification and Land Degradation

Early warning systems are key components of strategies to reduce risk. This research, by adopting a systematic approach in the management of the risk of desertification and by including previously developed models and systems, offers an integrated efficient structure in terms of early warning for the risk of desertification as a pilot system for semi-arid areas of west Golestan Province in IRAN...
