Understanding future landscape risk pattern change (FLRPC) scenarios will help people manage and utilize natural resources. In this study, we have selected a variety of anthropogenic factors as parameters for FLRPC assessment. Land use/cover (LUCC) land surface temperature (LST) are regarded significant that resulted in large-scale environmental changes. Result analysis the previous LUCC from 1...

for an optimum use of natural resources in the sustainable development trend, there is a need to identify ecological resources in the shortest period of time and minimum possible cost. in this article, we aimed management ecosystem by assessment of plant covers changes at taleghan township in a twenty year period. percentage of landscape and number of patch were among the metrics that were calc...

A ca. 1980 national-scale land-cover classification based on aerial photo interpretation was combined with 2000 AVHRR satellite imagery to derive land cover and land-cover change information for forest, urban, and agriculture categories over a seven-state region in the U.S. To derive useful land-cover change data using a heterogeneous dataset and to validate our results, we a) stratified the cl...

human activities induced changes in land cover/use have extensive impacts on the landscape. in recent years, these changes had an increasingly growth due to irrational use of the natural resources in iran. hence, considering the negative effects of the inappropriate use of land and land-use change, understanding of the landscape changes over time is necessary to planning and implementation of s...

To coordinate the economy and environment in mining cities, it is critical to understand ecological effects of land use/cover change (LUCC). Therefore, we selected a typical city analyze LUCC-driven ecosystem service changes. In this study, first used equivalent factor method calculate services valuation (ESV) Wu’an verified rationality ESV coefficient through sensitivity index. Secondly, ArcGI...

L and-use change in the United States represents an enormous uncontrolled experiment in the ways habitat changes influence plants and animals. When cities were built, land was plowed, or forests were cut, the effects on our native biota were not considered. Of course, humans have influenced the flora and fauna of North America over the ages. Native Americans established settlements, practiced a...

land degradation is a major danger which restricting different areas of iran. systematic description of the environmentfor detection of environmental changes and the human-related causes and responses is essential in land cover changestudy. use of land cover data allow detection of where certain changes occur, what type of change, as well as how theland is changing. existing systems for classif...
