Post classifi cation change detection was applied on temporal forest cover class datasets obtained by supervised classifi cation technique with maximum likelihood algorithm. The overall change analysis indicated a decreasing trend in forest cover. Statistics on selected landscape metrics were generated to ...
Take a look at the sample pages here. As you can see it’s all written in great detail but with ease and a focus on factual reality. There’s more to Nepal than just the big highlights – which I also cover. However,I don’t mince words about what is good and what is not-so ...
A further 4% decline in forest cover and 5% increase in cropland was predicted by 2030, together with a slight increase in grassland and barren area. Fragmentation analysis showed a 10% decrease in large core forest between 1990 and 2009, accompanied by an increase in patch forest. A ...
An approach based on the nearest neighbors techniques is presented for producing thematic maps of forest cover (forest/non-forest) and total stand volume for the Terai region in southern Nepal. To create the forest cover map, we used a combination of Landsat TM satellite data and visual interpr...
Sparse forest was converted into dense forest by 0.06% between 1990 and 2021. Principal Component Analysis showed successful implementation of community forest program and control grazing were main factors positively affecting to increase forest cover and quality. Value of NDVI showed that high ...
This research uses Landsat Multi-Spectral Scanner of 1973, Thematic Mapper of 1989, Advance Earth Observing Satellite of 1996, and Enhanced Thematic Mapper of 2003 imagery to examine the effects of socioeconomic and demographic factors on land use and forest cover dynamics in the Bara district of...
The forest cover statistics for Nepal obtained in this study shows an area of 76,710 km(2) in 1930 which has decreased to 39,392 km(2) in 2014. A net loss of 37,318 km(2) (48.6%) was observed in last eight decades. Analysis of annual rate of net deforestation for the recent ...
