ABSTRACT- One of the big problems today human societies are faced with is the problem of soil erosion. In this study, the "MPSIAC model" was used to estimate sediment yield and provide sediment yield map in Cachoyeh watershed. The MPSIAC method incorporates nine environmental factors that contribute to sediment yield of the watershed. These factors are: surface geology, soil, climate, runoff, t...

this research was carried out based on systematic analysis approach for evaluation of ecological resources capability of kasilian representative catchment for agricultural land use. the study area is located in southern of mazandaran province. in this study we used topography digital data, paper maps, climatology data, satellite images and gis, database and spreadsheet software. the process of ...

the research used the satellite image (landsat 7 etm ) within the thermal infrared sixth band (tir6) and geographic information system (gis) to determine the air pollution and its relationship with the land cover (lc) and land use (lu) of baghdad city. concentration of total suspended particles (tsp), lead (pb), carbon oxides (co, co2), and sulphur dioxide (so2) were obtained from 22 ground mea...

land use maps are the most essential information in the hand of natural resources managers.in the present research, to prepare dahat abbas land use map, landsat etm+ (1386) data was used. the image was geometrically corrected with root mean square error of less than 0.47. for classification, artificial neural network, support vector machine and maximum likelihood methods were used.finally, thel...

investigation of desertification trend needs understanding of phenomena creating changes singly or action and reaction together in the manner that these changes were ended up in land degradation. in investigation of pedological criterion onland degradation in quaternary rock units, first, a part of the rude-shoor watershed area was selected. after distinguishing target area, maps of slope class...
