this study was performed with objective land cover change prediction (forest, agriculture, residential and orchard) using logistic regression and markov chain in the gis environment in east of mazandaran province. land cover change detected using satellite imageries belonging to the years 1987 and 2001. transition potential modeling was conducted using a logistic regression. seven variables (de...

specific features of the structure of the ground litter invertebrate community in forest belt ecosystems in the ukrainian steppe zone have been considered. for 14 years invertebrate fauna of the litter of 176 forest belt sites with different composition has been studied with the aid of soil traps. the main characteristics of litter invertebrate communities (total population, a number of species...

Forests are an important economic source for human and have key role in nutrient cycle, hydrology and ecosystem performance, any interference in this vital ecosystem causes to damage to forests. Mechanical logging and road construction in forest areas have led to much soil compaction. Soil physical and chemical properties were studied in parts of road and non-road in the Darabkola forest of Ira...

The Zagros forests (west of Iran) have been highly exploited in recent decades by human impacts. Easy access, abundance and variety of valuable forest yields have led to population growth density, creation of new residential areas and deforestation activities. In order to determinate the distribution and rate of deforestation from 1995 to 2006 by using the satellite imagery (IRS-1C and  LANDSAT...

without doubt is one important aspects of sustainable forest management the continuing forest regeneration. identify and determine is effective dispersal and distribution pattern of regeneration patches in various types of forest and its evolution, in maintaining biodiversity in natural ecosystems. purpose was chosen of gorazbon district kheyrod forest for study, all patches regeneration were l...
