Abstract This study was aimed to determine the land suitability class of fruit and vegetable crops which are potential be developed in lowland Bintuni Bay. It showed that Manimeri is for development (particularly orange rambutan), vegetables (greens mustard, long beans, chili). Based on actual suitability, this area categorized as marginal (S3) with water availability, nutrient retention, avail...

Suitability evaluation of urban construction land based on geo-environmental factors is the process of determining the fitness of a given tract of land for construction. This process involves a consideration of the geomorphology, geology, engineering geology, geological hazards, and other geological factors and is the basis of urban construction land planning and management. With the support of...

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 ...

Restoration of the degraded ecosystem is a global priority for achieving sustainable development. Although increasing ecosystem service is an important goal of ecological restoration, it is rarely used to inform mine reclamation. This study proposed a reclamation strategy that incorporated land suitability analysis and ecosystem service evaluation for a mining site in Liaoning Province, China. ...

in this study, the environmental effects of land use changes on vegetation cover and emitted land surface temperature in two urban and non-urban areas of ardakan in yazd province, iran, were studied and compared temporally, using remote sensing technique. for this purpose, contemporary land sat satellite images in 1990 and 2002 were acquired and used. then vegetation cover maps were generated u...

Preserving the sustainable agriculture concept requires identifying plant response to water regime and rationing for irrigation. This research compares different irrigation designs coupled with a parametric evaluation system on soil erosion suitability assess sites vulnerable based model (ImpelERO) in an area of 150.0 hectares, Ismailia Governorate, Egypt. Land maps are prepared using Geographi...
