Land cover pattern optimization for local ecological security using remotely sensed data
نویسندگان
چکیده
A remote sensing approach towards modelling the land cover pattern for controlling local soil erosion based on the universal soil loss equation (USLE) was developed. The approach was used to analyse the possible impact of land cover changes on local ecological security. Then, land cover pattern optimization aiming at the reduction of local soil erosion was taken. Results show that this method can be applied to local ecological security management.

متن کاملCompleting the Picture: Importance of Considering Participatory Mapping for REDD+ Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV)
Remote sensing has been widely used for mapping land cover and is considered key to monitoring changes in forest areas in the REDD+ Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) system. But Remote Sensing as a desk study cannot capture the whole picture; it also requires ground checking. Therefore, complementing remote sensing analysis using participatory mapping can help provide information fo...
