desertification relates to the both the process and end state of drylands degradation. salinization and alkalinization are two indicators of soil degradation in arid and semi-arid regions. the main objectives of this research is monitoring of soil salinity using high spectral and spatial resolution of remote sensing to assess desertification in the marvast plain, yazd province. two images of te...

the use of satellite data in an estimation of air temperature (ta) near the earth’s surface has turned into an effective way for a large area of high spatial and temporal resolution. throughout the present study, artificial neural network (ann) as well as m5 model tree were employed to estimate ta in khuzestan province (south west of iran), using satellite remotely sensed land surface temperatu...

NASA launched the Earth Observing System's flagship satellite "Terra," named for Earth, on December 18, 1999. Terra has been collecting data about Earth's changing climate Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is a simple graphical indicator that can be used to analyze remote sensing measurements. These indexes can be used to prediction of classes of Remote Sensing (RS) images. In this ...

The studied region in this research (Alborz province) is structurally located in Alborz poly_orogenic system of northern Iran. The purpose of this research is combining the remote sensing and geology sciences to show fault lineaments by analyzing satellite data in a vast region and also comparison between lineaments layer and recognized faults in geology maps. Firstly, two scenes of Landsat ETM...

abstract a great part of iran’s area, especially yazd province is formed as deserted areas. kavir siahkooh is one of the most important desert areas of province. the researches show that the arid areas have an ideal condition for remote sensing and it can consider and show the plant coverage of the area .the aim of this study is to evaluate kavir siahkooh plant coverage and it’s comprise with t...
