there are different models for mapping and evaluation of desertification condition, such as global fao_unep model. there are also several models for evaluation of desertification in iran. in this study, tow fol/owing methods was used: 1-icd method, (iranian classification of desertification). 2- micd method, (modified iranian classification of desertification). in this research, at first, these...

the derakhte senged area is located in south of neishaboor town at khorasan razavi province. in this research, desertification intensity of derakht senged area was evaluated using imdpa, one of the newest method to assess desertification potential in arid and semi arid regions of iran. to evaluate desertification intensity, based on the primary research in this area, 4 criteria were selected in...

there have been different indices identified for desertification. among these is technogenic desertification index which seems much more efficient. in this study, some of technogenic desertification indices were studied and evaluated. first land use maps of the region were taken from irs-pan satellite image and aerial photos analysis. after evaluating the area of different uses, lands that had ...

Desertification is a worldwide concern and the assessment of aeolian desertification has become one hotspot in global ecosystem research. In this paper, hyperspectral data acquired from modular OMIS-I imaging spectrometer, combined with ETM data and field survey data, was used to assess the aeolian desertification in Korqin Sand, Inner Mongolia, China by pixel-level. The results indicated that ...

one of the characters in iranian model of desertification potential assessment (imdpa) is soil. since soil is very important in the degradation of land, so some indices were determined for this character in order to evaluate desertification potential of arid, semi-arid and dry sub humid areas of iran. the indices included soil texture, deep gravel percentage, soil depth, and ec. to calibrate th...
