“…Land use change data is an imperative source for environmental monitoring, forecast of natural disaster, global environmental change, and facilitate planning and utilization of land and other natural resources (Hassan, 2017;Shaharum et al, 2018). Land use maps of the protected areas can serve as a useful input to the Department of Wildlife and National Park of Peninsular Malaysia (DWNP) in conservation planning and managing the sites.…”

Unabated land use changes in developing countries have imperilled the urban ecosystem resilience. An urban protected area is one of the critical systems to absorb disturbance regimes in the metropolitan area, but it is increasingly pressured by urbanization. Therefore, assessing their land use and landscape pattern changes are pivotal to identify the conservation capacity. We developed land use maps for Klang Gate, Bukit Kutu, and Sungai Dusun wildlife reserves to assess their spatial and temporal land use changes between 1988 and 2012. The degree of fragmentation, the intensity of human impact and structural connectedness for these wildlife reserves were also quantified. The findings revealed that Klang Gate which located adjacent to the highly urbanizing area experienced a very significant loss of forest while built-up area and commercial agriculture gradually encroached into the reserve. It also has a higher degree of fragmentation and human impact than the other two reserves. Human impact inside of Klang Gate was concomitant to the outside. However, Bukit Kutu almost undisturbed and Sungai Dusun was slightly intruded by commercial agriculture. The results help different stakeholders, such as managing authorities and policy planners to strategize new land use planning that utilize limited land-based resources for future economic and social development. As the findings showed that urban protected areas alone are not sufficient in maintaining the urban ecosystem; therefore new conservation planning that integrates other urban green spaces at their surrounding is critical to ameliorating the conservation on a long-term basis.

“…Many researchers around the world have carried out LU/LC change analysis research over many years. Some of the study areas for LU/LC analysis have been North-eastern Latvia, 1 forests, 7 Northern Ethiopia, 9 Mexico, 14 Germany, 18 China, 23 Iran, 25 Egypt, 27 United Arab Emirates, 31 India, 32 Iraq, 37 Malaysia, 41 south-western Australia, 44 Eastern Region of Ghana, 50 Dubai, 52 south-western Nigeria, 54 Indonesia, 55 Pakistan 56 and Sri Lanka. 57 The main objective of researchers in choosing their study area depends on the causes of LU/LC change ( Figure 2), and their work assists government, forest departments, land resource and urban planners in taking the necessary actions to protect the Earth's environment.…”

Research in the field of remote sensing of the environment is valuable and informative. Hyperspectral (HSP) and multispectral (MSP) satellite images have been used for different remote sensing applications. Land Use/Land Cover (LU/LC) change classification has been considered as important research in the field of remote sensing environment. This review aims to identify the various LU/LC applications, remote sensing satellites, geospatial software, pre-processing techniques, LU/LC classification, clustering, spectral unmixing, landscape change models and evaluation metrics. The main objective of this review is to present the more frequently used techniques for analysing LU/LC change with MSP and HSP satellite images. An aim of this review is to motivate future researchers to work efficiently with MSP and HSP satellite images in the field of remote sensing.

“…The equalization allowed for reducing the hue difference between the joined scenes significantly, leading to homogenization and standardization of the colors [39]. Furthermore, the mosaics generated for each year were submitted to (iii) trimming the perimeter of the study area, obtained by IBGE [40] and ICMBio [25], and (iv) a composition of spectral bands: RGB 5 (Mid IR), 4 (Near IR), 3 (Red); RGB 4 (Near IR), 3 (Red), 2 (Green); RGB 3 (Red), 2 (Green), 1 (Blue), corresponding to false color, infrared, and natural color, respectively, using the LANDSAT 5 satellite images, and RGB 6 (SWIR1), 5 (NIR), 4 (Red); RGB 5 (NIR), 4 (Red), 3 (Green); and RGB 4 (Red), 3 (Green), 2 (Blue), corresponding to false color, infrared, and natural color, respectively, using LANDSAT 8 [38,41,42].…”

Effectiveness of Arguments Used in the Creation of Protected Areas of Sustainable Use in Brazil: A Case Study from the Atlantic Forest and Cerrado

et al. 2019

Studies on the effectiveness of the discourse motivating the creation of protected areas (PAs) and their empirical reality are scarce. The lack of knowledge in this area affects programs and policies on the maintenance and creation of protected areas. Thus, we investigated this matter using the case study of the Nascente Geraizeiras Sustainable Development Reserve (NGSDR) in Minas Gerais State, Brazil. The reserve comprises a transition area between Cerrado and the Atlantic Forest, two critical biomes in the world of biodiversity and the only two hotspots in Brazil. Changes in land use were identified over a period of 30 years, from 1987 to 2017, based on a compilation of the arguments associated with the creation of the PA, geographic information system (GIS) techniques, remote sensing (RS) data, and landscape ecology indices. Seven types of land use were identified using Random Forest classifier R software: native forest, silviculture, pasture, bare soil, rocky outcrop, watercourses, and agriculture. The overall mean accuracy of the classification was 90% for all five periods. The results demonstrated that the creation of protected areas is supported by contexts of land use still based on traditional. The case study showed the discourse served as a fundamental strategy in the beginning of the mobilization that culminated in the creation of the NGSDR, in the containment of forestry, in an increase in native forest areas, and in reduced fragmentation, leading to an improvement in the conservation status of the landscape. The present study encourages future researchers to apply the evaluated approach and demonstrates its potential in assessing the formulation of programs and policies on protected areas worldwide, providing valid indicators for the improvement of ecosystem services.
