Analysis of vegetation from satellite images correlated to the bird species presence and the state of health of the ecosystems of Bucharest during the period from 1991 to 2006

Abstract: The urban vegetation needs adequate monitoring and conservation, being a critical resource of urban landscape. To its deeply esthetic values, the practical values and, respectively, ecosystem services delivered by the urban biodiversity are added (amelioration of the environment and urban microclimate, flood control, diminishing of the environmental pollution, increasing of biodiversity and habitats etc.). Accurate remote sensing techniques have been used widely in locating and mapping urban vegetation (Light … Show more

“…Green space was shown to have a positive relationship with bird diversity, and by contrast, the built class exhibited negative relationships with bird diversity. These relationships were expected as green space was projected to have a positive impact on bird diversity, particularly woody habitat, while built environment was projected to have a negative impact, as has been found in other studies [2,35,71,72]. For example, our research corroborates the findings of Keten et al [71] who developed a riparian quality index to quantify the impact on such habitats on avian biodiversity, identifying that as the proportion of urban cover decreases in riparian habitat and is replaced with more natural green coverage, biodiversity increases.…”

“…A mudflat class was also assigned to the classification scheme to capture the presence of mudflats on the eastern side of Cork City due the importance of mudflats as a habitat for bird diversity. An automatic supervised maximum likelihood classifier was implemented in ENVI5.5 to perform perpixel classification of the study area [35,43,44]. This method assumes that the values for each class in each of the bands are normally distributed and calculates the probability that a given pixel belongs to a specific class defined by training areas.…”
