Vegetation cover change detection using RS and GIS in Chaharbagh rangelands of Golestan province for a period of 30-years

Using accurate and low-cost methods to monitor quantitative changes in vegetation cover play an important role in the efficient and sustainable management when the area is too large. In this study, the changes of vegetation cover were investigated using satellite data of TM (Landsat_5) and oli (Landsat_8) sensors for a 30-year period (1988-2018) in Chaharbagh rangeland of Golestan province. T...

Spatial and Temporal Characteristics of Snow Cover in the Tizinafu Watershed of the Western Kunlun Mountains

The Tizinafu watershed has a complex mountainous terrain in the western Kunlun Mountains; little study has been done on the spatial and temporal characteristics of snow cover in the region. Daily snow cover data of 10 hydrological years (October 2002 to September 2012) in the watershed were generated by combining MODIS Terra (MOD10A1) and Aqua (MYD10A1) snow cover products and employing a nine-...
