(Foody et al., 2003). Gillham and Mellin (2004) carried out multi-temporal image analysis to assist rangeland managers in evaluating range readiness, observing utilization levels and creating decisions to spread the length of the emergent season. Landsat TM and ETM+ images were employed to improve associations between dry biomass weight per unit area
CHAPTER ONE 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background of the study Land-use and land-cover changes (LULCC) induced by human and natural processes a major role in global as well as regional scale patterns of the climate and biogeochemistry of the earth system (Ramachandra et al., 2012).Now a day’s Global warming is highly increasing as a result of massive land-use and land-cover (LULC) changes. The change in land-use land-cover leads to environmental change, rainy season fluctuation, increase sea surface temperature
heads in very good condition. Excavators believe it is a very well preserved site because of the formation and rapid movement of the desert sands which covered up the site relatively quickly after it was abandoned (Genchi, Giardino, and Castelluccia 3-4). Sites with similar metal deposits dating to approximately the same time have been found in the region, at Ibri, for example, 50 km west of As Safah (Yule 39-40). The site itself has been delineated into As Safah 1 and 2 based upon the deposit of
States Geological Survey (USGS, 2017). The red linear trend line in Figure 3 shows the overall trend in the streamflow rate during this time period. To further our analysis of the history of Colorado River streamflow, we prepared a histogram, Figure 4, to determine
problems such as unsuitable land-use [3]. The concentration of population in cities comprises as much as 60% of the total population in most countries. In these immense urban settlements the environmental and social consequences are sometimes disastrous [4]. Large cities in Africa such as Nakuru have experienced a fast growth rate of 13.3% between 1990 and 2006 [5]. The magnification has been attributed to a number of factors, mainly the aperture of the new Naivasha-Nakuru road, which links the megacity
The image being analyzed is a Landsat 8 OLI using literal interpretation. Many multispectral band combinations were needed to interpret the areas of the image and they are referenced where necessary. The Landsat 8 OLI was retrieved from the USGA Earth Explorer and courtesy of the US Geological Survey. The date of acquisition is March 28, 2014 and the scene is path 29 row 30 (USGS). The land cover and land use was derived from different techniques and element of image interpretation. Many ancillary

CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background Natural resources play a critical role in the welfare of developing countries (Huizing etal, 2002). For many developing countries, natural resources are the base upon which all life depends. However, many developing countries have experienced and continue to experience severe degradation of their natural resources. Expansion in technology, population and economic activities have led to accelerated and unsustainable exploitation and depletion of natural
The Landsat MSS (17-01-1973), ETM+ (26-10-2001) and TM (21-10-1990 and 24-10-2009) satellite data (Path/Row - 139/44) are considered to analyse the spatio-temporal changes of forest in Salbani block. All these satellite data are registered to Universal Transverse
