Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEvaluating the Impact of Topography on Flooding in Owerri North, Imo State, Nigeria Using GIS and Remote Sensing TechniquesSylvanus Ibeabuchi IroThe aim of this study is to analyze the topographical contribution to floods in Owerri, North Imo State, Nigeria. Research was carried out to ascertain whether topographical elements played a role in the flooding in specific areas of Owerri North. As a result, very little research has looked at the effects of topography on flooding. Thus, there is a barrier … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2025 · 7,197 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleMonitoring the Rate of Change at Urualla Gully Erosion Site Using GIS and Remote Sensing MethodologySylvanus IroUrualla gully erosion was monitored using GIS and remote sensing in Urualla, Ideato North Imo State Nigeria. The objective is to calculate the rate of change of Urualla gully erosion and identify measures to control its growth. The study's data came from primary and secondary sources, such as Google Earth imageries, DEMs, and in situ measurements. Google Earth was used … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 5 · 28 Feb 2024 · 5,314 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDetermining Causes of Gully Erosion and Associated Rates of Change in South-East Nigeria, using a Remote Sensing and GIS MethodologySylvanus IroThe study of gully development on a regional scale is currently threatened by the intrinsic costs associated with steady field tracking and monitoring and the lack of historic measurements to perform time series analysis. The research objective is to develop a low-cost GIS and Remote Sensing methodology for monitoring and quantifying gully erosion and development over time, identifying the impact … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 5 · 22 Oct 2020 · 7,431 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleWater Resource Evaluation and Identifying Groundwater Potential Zones in Arid area using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information SystemM.M. Kamruzzaman, Saad Awadh Alanazi, Madallah Alruwaili et al.Groundwater resource is the main conventional source of fresh water all over the world. However, recent revelations indicated that the shortage of water resources remains the main challenge for the arid areas. In this regard, identifying groundwater potential zones or areas can help to improve the availability of fresh water and effective management of groundwater in arid areas. This work … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 3 Mar 2020 · 8,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleApplication of Remote Sensing Techniques in Determining the Risk Taking Level of Different Seasons on Fire Generation in Terms of NDVI Index During the Year Case Study: Golestan Province, IranAkram Karimi, Sara Abdollahi, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari et al.Knowledge of the nature of seasons and months in terms of the fire risk is very important in environmental planning, land management and forest resource management in order to achieve the sustainable development. One of the applications of remote sensing in this regard is the continuous monitoring of the zone to detect changes. Currently, the vegetation mapping is used to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2018 · 7,693 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Spatial Distribution of Apis Dorsata Host Plants Using an Integrated Geographical Information System-Remote Sensing ApproachIzzat F. Ibrahim, Siva K. Balasundram, Nur-Ashikin P. Abdullah et al.Apis dorsata is one of the important honeybee species in tropical and subtropical regions that forages on various plants including herbs, grasses, forest trees and plantation trees. However, information on the spatial distribution of various pollen sources of Apis dorsata is still lacking. This study aimed at mapping the spatial distribution of the major honeybee plants that serve as pollen … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 20 Sep 2012 · 8,585 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePredict Location(s) of Apis dorsata Nesting Sites Using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System in Melaleuca ForestiM. M. Saberioon, M. Mardan, L. Nordin et al.Problem statement: The Asiatic Giant honeybees (Apis dorsata) are seasonally abounded throughout the upland and lowland rainforests in South East Asia. The colonies of A. dorsata are found to nest in aggregates on tall bee trees (tree emergent) in the open, as well as, nesting singly in concealed locations when nesting low, especially in the submerged forest of Melaleuca cajuputi … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,603 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleHyperspectral Remote Sensing for Tropical Rain ForestKamaruzaman Jusoff, Kasawani IbrahimProblem statement: Sensing, mapping and monitoring the rain forest in forested regions of the world, particularly the tropics, has attracted a great deal of attention in recent years as deforestation and forest degradation account for up to 30% of anthropogenic carbon emissions and are now included in climate change negotiations.
