Capturing and identifying field-based agricultural activities, such as the start, duration end of irrigation, together with crop sowing/germination, growing period time harvest, offer informative metrics that can assist in precision activities addition to broader water food security monitoring efforts. While optically based band-ratios, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) (NDWI), have...

Accurate temporal land use mapping provides important and timely information for decision making large-scale management of crop production. At present, cover classifications within a study area have neglected the differences between subregions. In this paper, we propose classification rule by integrating terrain, time series characteristics, priority, seasonality (TTPSR) with Sentinel-2 satelli...

The evaluation of the effect burn severity on forest soils is essential to determine impact wildfires a range key ecological processes, such as nutrient cycling and vegetation recovery. main objective this study was assess potentiality different spectral products derived from RGB multispectral imagery collected by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) at very high spatial resolution for discriminatin...

Aim Andean montane forests are biodiversity hotspots and large carbon stores they provide numerous ecosystem services. Following land abandonment after centuries of forest clearing for agriculture in the Andes, there is an opportunity recovery. Field-based studies show that do not always recover. However, large-scale long-term knowledge recovery dynamics remains scarce. This paper analyses trop...

Abstract The assessment of drought hazards is important due to their socio-economic impacts on water resources, agriculture, and ecosystems. In this study, the effects changing area canopy Lake Urmia watershed in northwest Iran have been monitored evaluated. For purpose, Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) was calculated short medium periods (1-month 3-month) determine dry-spell basin. revie...

The study investigates the land use and cover (LULC) in Errachidia province (Pre-Saharan of Morocco) period 2005–2020. To this end, remote sensing (RS) tools such as LULC, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), water (NDWI), Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI), Gravity Recovery Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite data, precipitations were processed combined. monitoring LULC over reveals di...

Exacerbated by climate change, Europe has experienced series of hot and dry summer since the beginning 21st century. The importance land conditions became an international concern with a dedicated sustainable development goal (SDG), SDG 15. It calls for developing finding innovative solutions to follow evaluate impacts changing induced various driving forces. In Switzerland, drought risk will s...
