Abstract:Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) change has been a substantial environmental concern, hindering sustainable development over the past few decades. To that end, comprehending the past and future patterns of LULC change is vital for conserving and sustainably managing land resources. This study aimed to analyze the spatiotemporal patterns of landscape dynamics from 1986 to 2022 and predict situations for 2041 and 2058, considering a business-as-usual (BAU) scenario in the Wabe River Catchment. The historical land use … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
