This study aims to assess the changes in vegetation cover and its relationship with land surface temperature from 1990 to 2024 in Basra Governorate, southern Iraq. Satellite images from Landsat 5 and 8, in addition to remote sensing and GIS tools, were used to analyze the...
Also, there is an increase in the general trend of the maximum and minimum temperatures for Kirkuk, Nasiriya, Basra, Baghdad, Al-Hay, and Mosul stations. The influence of the NIO 3.4 index on Iraq's climate, temperature, and relative humidity was minimal. The impact of th...

The results show that treating the monthly temperature data for the stations (Baghdad, Hilla, Basra, Nasiriya, and Samawa) in Iraq for all periods (1980-2020), the percentage for matching between the original and the treating values did not exceed (80%). So, the pe...
Based on RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios, the values of the temperature increase in both scenarios by 1.7掳C in 2050 and 2.2掳C in 2091 in Basra. Due to Basra's significance to Iraq's economy, society, and politics, the findings of this study will be helpful to city planners and decision...
High LST and low NDVI in southern Iraq, particularly in the petroleum region might be associated with intense anthropogenic sources and climate change. It is concluded that southern Iraq (Al-Basra) including its major oil fields, is subjected to harsh climatic conditions due to anthropogenic ...
