Soil characterization based on land cover heterogeneity over a tropical landscape: an integrated approach using earth observation data-sets

摘要: Soil is a vital part of the natural environment and always responding to changes in environmental factors, along with influences anthropogenic factors land use changes. The long-term change soil properties will result health fertility, hence productivity. Hence, main aim this paper focuses on analysis use/land cover (LULC) pattern spatial temporal perspective present its impact Merawu catchment over period 18 years. Post classification detection was performed quantify decadal historical LULC periods 1991, 2001 2009. pixel comparison method used detect area. key types were selected for investigation properties. samples analysed situ measure physicochemical results study show remarkable effect l...
