the growing population and increasing socio-economic necessities creates a pressure on land use/land cover. nowadays, land use change detection using remote sensing data provides quantitative and timely information for management and evaluation of natural resources. this study investigates the land use changes in part of hableh rood watershed of iran using landsat 7 and 8 (sensor etm+ and oli) ...

Amazonia holds the largest continuous area of tropical forests with intense land use change dynamics inducing water, carbon, and energy feedbacks with regional and global impacts. Much of our knowledge of land use change in Amazonia comes from studies of the Brazilian Amazon, which accounts for two thirds of the region. Amazonia outside of Brazil has received less attention because of the diffi...

An Interactive Multiple Goal Linear Programming (IMGLP) model is developed that considers objectives of multiple stakeholders, i.e. different farmer groups, district agricultural officers and agricultural scientists for agricultural land use analysis. The analysis focuses on crop selection; considering irrigated and non-irrigated crops such as rice, sugarcane, sorghum, cotton, millet, pulses an...

Beneficial effects of leaving residue at the soil surface are well documented for steep lands, but not for flat lands that are drained with surface inlets and tile lines. This study quantified the effects of tillage and nutrient source on tile line and surface inlet water quality under continuous corn (Zea mays L.) from relatively flat lands (<3%). Tillage treatments were either fall chisel or ...

land use may be regarded as one of the most important factors affecting theenvironment with respect to human activities. so far, destroying the rangelands andchanging them into the waste lands and poor rangelands has been proposed as the mostsignificant variations of land use done by human beings. this paper has been conducted toevaluate the variations of vegetation percentage and land uses in ...

Agriculture is one of climate change's most sensitive economic sectors. In Uzbekistan, 95% agricultural products come from irrigated lands. Because the sector Uzbekistan meets population's demand for food and industrial raw materials, ensuring national security. Different climatic soil-hydrogeological variations are countrywide significant to assess possible increase in crop water determine con...
