Interest has recently increased in the sustainable development of the natural resources of the land cover, including the water resources stored in natural catchments such as lakes and marshes and flowing from the sources to the rivers, and in increasing human activities from cultivating and fertilizing the land, to establishing factories and throwing industrial waste into rivers to throwing bore water in addition to Clay silt as a result of weathering and erosion of the soil. The purpose of the study is to monitor and determine the quality of the Tigris River water from turbidity, industrial waste and the rest of the materials that pollute the Tigris River. The section of the Tigris River passing through the city of Baghdad was selected as a sample for the study, and the data were used. Remote sensing techniques in the investigation of the polluted area in the Tigris River in Baghdad. The Landsat 8 (OLI) image of Baghdad was used as the best sensor to measure the spectral reflectivity of land features, including water, with a spatial resolution of 30 m on October 18, 2020. The Arc GIS v10.8 application software package was used to process the image data and measure the normalized turbidity index using the green band (3) and the red band (4). Turbidity was calculated using Normalized Difference Turbidity Index (NDTI), and then classified based on the high and low values of (NDTI). The results indicated that three categories of water quality succeeded in assessing and mapping the turbidity of the water that pollutes the Tigris River. The study is worthwhile. I can be deal with the rest of the pollutants using remote sensing data as the best technology and results at the fastest costs.

This study investigates the changes occurring in the province of Basra using geospatial methods and analyzes the variations in land surface temperature among the various types of land cover. For the months of July and December in the years 2013 and 2021, Landsat images were used in Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS, and satellite images were processed using ArcGIS 10.8 software. The study's categories for land use and land cover were generated through the application of supervised classification techniques, and the land surface temperature was calculated using data from a satellite sensor's brightness temperature. According to the study's findings, there has been an increase in urban areas (including barren land). From 2013 to 2021, a greater correlation between urban land and LST was found, indicating an increasing surface urban heat island effect as evidenced by its statistically significant correlation coefficients.It has a significant impact on the variations in land surface temperature.This study also highlighted the key variations in how land use and cover affect LST. Across all time periods of investigation. Therefore, techniques for remote sensing and geographic information systems are useful for tracking and analyzing urban expansion patterns and assessing their effects on land surface temperature.

“…This results in higher temperatures that pose a significant threat to human health; it is essential to monitor this change as urban land surfaces are constantly spatially complex, and significant variations can occur in relative humidity [14]. In addition, current research has demonstrated that the spatial configuration of land use classifications at a city scale is essential, so remote sensing techniques have been used to monitor land covers [15] and [16]. The work aims to study the effect of climatic factor "relative humidity" on Baghdad city through an urban change over five years.…”

Urbanization phenomenon did expand rapidly in Baghdad-Iraq due to security improvement and the human desire for daily services availability, where reducing the agricultural lands "Greenlands" negatively affected the climate rate. The relationship between urban expansion and relative humidity was studied from 2008 to 2018 using remote sensing data (satellite images of Landsat 5 and Landsat 8) and relative humidity rate data obtained from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). Data were processed and analyzed using ArcGIS v: 10.2. Results showed changes in human activities (land use (LU)) and urban areas, where increasing urbanization declines vegetation and turbulence climate. The study provides a significant correlation between increasing urbanization and relative humidity rate. Thus, the unintended use of the land may affect the local climate.
