Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Characteristics of Land Cover in Mangkauk Catchment Area Using Support Vector Machine (SVM) And Artificial Neural Network (ANN)Ichsan Ridwan, Mohammad Bisri, Fadly Hairannoor Yusran et al.Land cover is anything that includes any types of appearance on the surface of the earth on a particular land. Information related to land cover can be used as at the parameter to determine the amount of runoff in a catchment area. This study was conducted in the Catchment Area (CA) of Mangkauk using Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS 2014 scene path/row … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 21 Jul 2017 · 7,660 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLong-Term Changes in Mangrove Landscape of the Niger River Delta, NigeriaPing Wang, Aroloye O. Numbere, Gerardo R. CamiloThe Niger Delta mangrove is the third largest in the world and the largest in Africa. Since the 1960s oil and gas exploration has become an important economic activity, resulting in significant alteration of the landscape via pollution, urbanization and invasion. Landsat images of six different years (1984, 1986, 2000, 2003, 2005 and 2007) were used to determine land cover … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Jun 2016 · 8,844 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonitoring Land Use and Land Cover Effects on Water Quality in Cheung Ek Lake using ASTER ImagesNara Im, Kensuke Kawamura, Endan Suwandana, Yuji SakunoCheung Ek Lake is the biggest natural treatment plant for nearly 80% of wastewater and storm-water from Phnom Penh city. Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) changes of the lake and its catchment area could deteriorate capacity of the lake in purifying wastewater and affect to its water quality. The study aims to assess the relationship between LULC changes and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2015 · 8,017 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDETECTION 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 · 8,018 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication 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 · 6,792 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoil Degradation Risk Prediction Integrating RUSLE with Geo-information Techniques, the Case of Northern Shaanxi Province in ChinaMushtak T. Jabbar, Xiaoling ChenThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) with RS, GIS and GPS techniques to quantify soil erosion risk and the northern part of Shaanxi province in China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. The rating values served as inputs into a modified Revised … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,052 accessesView PDFCite
