متن کاملMulti-period monitoring and prediction of forest cover loss using logistic regression model in Arasbaran catchments
Knowledge and understanding of changes in forest cover in relation to environmental factors (topography) can be valuable in terms of conservational and protective guidances. The purpose of this study was to identify, quantify and predict deforestation in relation to topographic variables using logistic regression model. The Arasbaran catchments (Naposhtehchay, Ilginehchay and Mardanqumchay) in ...
متن کاملUsing witness trees to assess forest change in southeastern Ohio
In 1787, the U.S. Congress authorized the sale of the “Ohio Company Purchase”, ca. 5000 km2 in Appalachian Ohio. The land was surveyed using a township and range system shortly thereafter. Data on >5600 witness trees were transcribed from the survey records, and witness tree locations were plotted on a digital map. This information was used to evaluate presettlement forest composition and struc...
متن کاملA Monitoring Global Forest Cover Using Data Mining
Forests are a critical component of the planet’s ecosystem. Unfortunately, there has been significant degradation in forest cover over recent decades as a result of logging, conversion to crop, plantation, and pasture land, or disasters (natural or man made) such as forest fires, floods, and hurricanes. As a result, significant attention is being given to the sustainable use of forests. A key t...
متن کاملMapping Forest Cover and Forest Cover Change with Airborne S-Band Radar
Assessments of forest cover, forest carbon stocks and carbon emissions from deforestation and degradation are increasingly important components of sustainable resource management, for combating biodiversity loss and in climate mitigation policies. Satellite remote sensing provides the only means for mapping global forest cover regularly. However, forest classification with optical data is limit...
