متن کاملRemote Sensing and Geomatics Applications for Desertification and Land Degradation Monitoring and Assessment
The combined output of LADAMER should be a comprehensive as well as spatially explicit image of land degradation effects and associated processes for the relevant European Mediterranean countries, in particular for the prototype region of the Iberian Peninsula. It will hence serve as a kind of integrating project between former research approaches and ongoing monitoring and assessment efforts. ...
متن کاملIntegrated assessment of the impact of drought and land use changes on Ground Water (case study: Hamadan-Bahar watershed)
Groundwater drought denotes the condition and hazard during a prolonged meteorological drought when groundwater resources decline and become unavailable or inaccessible for human use. The aim of this study is to identify the influencial factors on groundwater drought in Hamadan- Bahar Watershed,Iran, to understand the forcing mechanisms. The Standardised Precipitation Index (SPI) has been used ...
