Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDETECTION OF LAND USE AND LAND COVER CHANGES IN DIRAB REGION OF SAUDI ARABIA USING REMOTELY SENSED IMAGERIESR. Madugundu, K. A. Al-Gaadi, V. C. Patil, E. TolaKnowledge of Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) changes is important for many planning and management activities. It is thought to be an essential element for modeling and understanding the major land forms, especially in arid regions like Saudi Arabia. This study investigates the LULC changes in Dirab region of Saudi Arabia between 1980 and 2010, using Landsat TM/ETM+images. After … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2014 · 8,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAssessing the Environmental Impacts of Urban Growth Using Land Use/Land Cover, Water Quality and Health Indicators: A Case Study of Arequipa, PeruOswaldo Villena Carpio, Brian D. FathProblem statement: This research assesses the direct effects of urban expansion on land cover/use, river flow, water quality and the indirect effects of these variables in the rate of gastrointestinal disease in people in Arequipa, Peru through the combined use of satellite remote sensing and geographic information systems. Approach: It also uses information about demographic changes, hydrologic data and land … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 8,741 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleApplication of Geo-Information Technology in the Study of Soil and Nutrients Loss by Water Erosion for three Different Land CoverMushtak T. Jabbar, C. A.I. Chong-Fa, Wang Tian-Wei, Shi Zhi-HuaThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and the soil statistical analysis with RS and GIS techniques to quantify soil and nutrient loss risk. The Letianxi watershed, located in the southwest part of Hubei Province of China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLand-Cover Removal and Gully Development in Southeast Nigeria: A 30-Year Analysis with Pixel and OBIA Approaches in JuxtapositionSylvanus IroIn this study a study of gully erosion in southeast Nigeria is presented. The study of gully development on a regional scale is currently undermined by the inherent costs associated with consistent field monitoring and the lack of historic measurements to perform time series analysis. As a result, there are very few studies which implement long term analyses of gullies … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 9 Jun 2020 · 7,383 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUse of Satellite Data to Study the Impact of Land-Cover/Land-Use Change in Madison County AlabamaTomas Ayala-Silva, Garry Gordon, Robert HeathThe monitoring of land/use land cover changes along the northern part of Madison County Alabama are essential for the developers, planners, policy makers and management of government, public and private organizations. Remote sensing was used to analyze and study land-use/land-cover use changes impact on the environment of Madison County Alabama. This study area was selected because it is one of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMethods for Growing Complete Feed for Livestock on the Forage Lands of West Kazakhstan in the Framework of Sustainable ManagementBeybit Nasiyev, Peizhi Yang, Azhar Latenova et al.Sustainable management of forage lands is critical for livestock productivity in the arid and semi-arid regions of West Kazakhstan, where pasture degradation and declining forage quality pose increasing challenges to agricultural sustainability. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different grazing methods on the vegetation condition, productivity, and nutritional quality of pastures in West Kazakhstan. Pasture vegetation was assessed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2026 · 1,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Hybrid Model of Bidirectional Long-Short Term Memory and CNN for Multivariate Time Series Classification of Remote Sensing DataSawsan Morkos GharghoryClassification of multivariate time series has got massive attention in the last decade. The traditional modeling classifiers are complicated patterns and are incompetent to capture the dependencies of multivariate time series data. To include both of the effective features and the embedded relationships in the multivariate time series, a new hybrid model which incorporates both Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 9 · 29 Sep 2021 · 6,686 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSoil Erosion Prediction Based on Land Use Changes (A Case in Neka Watershed)Karim Solaimani, Saeid Modallaldoust, Sedigheh LotfiProblem statement: Land use change has transformed a vast part of the natural landscapes of the developing world for the last 50 years. Land is a fundamental factor of production and though much of the course of human history, it has been tightly coupled with economic growth. Soil erosion by water is one of the most important land degradation processes … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,447 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAssessing Supervised Classification Algorithms for Mangrove Detection and Differentiation from Other Forest Types in Paiton District, Probolinggo RegencyKaruniawan Puji Wicaksono, Fathor Rohman, Yasushi MitsudaRemote sensing provides an effective approach for monitoring forest cover dynamics, yet distinguishing mangroves from other forest types remains challenging in heterogeneous coastal landscapes. This study compares six supervised classification algorithms: Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Quadratic Discriminant Analysis (QDA), Mixture Discriminant Analysis (MDA), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest (RF), and eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) for mangrove detection in Paiton, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 1 Sep 2026 · 844 accessesView PDFCite
