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...

Land use land cover (LULC) dynamics have long been recognized as a significant driver of natural resource change. As result, understanding the spatial and temporal variation LULC in watershed is essential for effective management long-term development. This study attempts to analyze change drivers from 1990 2020 predict situation 2035 2050 Ajora-Woybo watershed. ArcGIS 10.3 ERDAS 2015 were used...

Se estudió la evolución de dinámica espacio temporal en el Estado Tabasco, Sureste México, mediante Land Change Modeler, y se proyectaron escenarios con Cadenas Márkov Autómatas Celulares. Los resultados señalan que durante quince años (2001-2016) perdieron 76,522 ha humedales, 18,333 selvas, 73,591 vegetación secundaría, debido al crecimiento descomunal 148,129 uso agropecuario, expansión 13,3...

The changes in human population often correspond with change in land use, including expansion of urban areas, agriculture and increasing industrialization, which necessitate increasing the available amount of drinking water. As the surface water sources are under the pressure of pollution, it has become necessary to use groundwater at an increasing rate. Groundwater recharge can be abundant in ...

Objective: To study the conservation status of tropical rainforest in “Cañón del Usumacinta” Flora and Fauna Protection Area Mexico, through an analysis change land use vegetation (1997, 2009 2016). Design/Methodology/Approach: Vegetation shapefiles at 1:250,000 scale (national continuum) corresponding to 1997 (series I), IV), 2016 VI) were downloaded. Finally, a spatial was generated with calc...

The objectives were to analyze the dynamics of land use and cover Amazon biome over time through spatial modeling, project its future scenario with Land Change Modeler (LCM) module. This analysis was based on 1985, 2014 2017 data from MapBiomas project, which associated socioeconomic explanatory variables Cramer-V test. Results showed that Forest Formation class occupied 3,844,800.75 km2 (91.20...

During the last decades, a diversity of models has been developed to simulate future land use and land cover changes (LUCC). In this paper, we compared four modeling tools: CLUE-S, DINAMICA EGO, CA_MARKOV and Land Change Modeler. We assessed the methods and tools available for each modeling tool within these models based on the six steps necessary for a generic framework of LUCC modeling: 1) es...

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 ...
