چکیده
Introduction: The spread of agricultural use leads to changes in vegetation cover, loss biodiversity and ecosystem services. Objective: To analyze land change its effect on natural the region Los Ríos, Tabasco, Mexico, during period 1947-2019. Materials methods: A total 14 classes were identified using aerial photographs from 1947 supervised classification satellite images, verifying those 2000 with published cartography 2019 (Landsat 8) field. Land cover was analyzed by overlaying comparing maps Change Modeler module integrated TerrSet program. Results discussion: In 72 years, mostly replaced crops, grassland forest plantations, followed human settlements. These uses, together, represented 14.2 % region’s surface increased 61.8 %; that is, an increase 435 %. uses areas rainforest, secondary hydrophytes, which went 82.3 29.7 %, representing a 64 these coverages. Between 1984, suffered greatest area (53.7 %). Conclusions: occurred because driven government programs without considering environmental factor.

Modeling Land-use and Land-cover Change
Models are used in a variety of fields, including land change science, to better understand the dynamics of systems, to develop hypotheses that can be tested empirically, and to make predictions and/or evaluate scenarios for use in assessment activities. Modeling is an important component of each of the three foci outlined in the science plan of the Land-use and -cover change (LUCC) project (Tu...
متن کاملLand cover land use mapping and change detection analysis using geographic information system and remote sensing
Land cover/land use categories are relevant components in land management. Understanding how land cover/land use change over time is necessary to assess the consequences of humans and natural stressors on the earth’s environment and resources. The aim of the study was to map and monitor the spatial and temporal change in land cover/land use for the periods of 1977, 1991 and 2016 and to predict ...

We characterized soil cation, carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) transformations within a variety of land use types in the karst region of the northeastern Dominican Republic. We examined a range of soil pools and fluxes during the wet and dry seasons in undisturbed forest, regenerating forest and active agricultural sites within and directly adjacent to Los Haitises National Park. Soil moisture, soil...
