This study aimed to map phytophysiognomies of an area of Ombrophilous Dense Forest at Parque Estadual da Serra do Mar and characterize their floristic composition. Photointerpretation of aerial photographs in scale of 1:...

Abstract Remote sensing is increasingly employed today for the creation of wall-to-wall vegetation maps of protected areas. The main objective of this study was to evaluate whether it is feasible to develop a remote sens...

Tropical dry forests and savannas provide important ecosystem services and harbor high biodiversity, yet are globally under pressure from land-use change. Mapping changes in the condition of dry forests and savannas is t...

The shift from conventional irrigation methods to sprinkler systems is intended to improve accuracy and efficiency; however, it requires thorough validation of the uniformity of water distribution. This research focuses ...

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar o potencial das variáveis geomorfométricas extraídas de dados SRTM (Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission) para identificação de tipos vegetacionais da região do interflú...

Mining activities in the Kenyan Marble Quarries (KMQ) are a potential source of atmospheric pollution, raising health concerns for the local population. This study aims to examine the extent to which marble mining contri...

The purpose of this article is a systematic analysis of cartographic support introduction in rapeseed cultivation to increase the efficiency of agricultural production. Main material. The use of modern cartographic me...

Floods occur when the volume of water exceeds the capacity of containment or the normal flow of water channels, such as rivers, lakes, canals, or drainage systems. In 2021 and 2022, there were 88 flood disasters in Semar...

Landslide hotspots refer to spatial clusters of slope failures where event densities significantly exceed surrounding background levels, providing key insight into how climatic, environmental, and anthropogenic factors i...

Mangrove ecosystems play a vital role in protecting coastlines, sequestering carbon, and sustaining coastal biodiversity. However, various pressures such as land conversion, abrasion, and human activities are causing deg...

ABSTRACT The effectiveness of a program of payment for environmental services (PES) in the Brazilian Amazon was analyzed through an accurate mapping of deforested areas. The Bolsa Floresta Program (BFP) in Amazonas state...

ARTICLE HIGLIGHTS - First carbon mapping of Palsabangon watershed using InVEST model - Combines remote sensing and field data across four key vegetation types - Reveals mangroves store highest carbon per hectare among la...

Identifying high-quality habitats across large areas is a central goal in biodiversity conservation. Remotely sensed data provide the opportunity to study different habitat characteristics (e.g., landscape topography, so...
