To determine the potential habitat of two rangeland species of Salsola rigida and Agropyron trichophorum in Qasr-e-Shirin, Iran, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) techniques were used. At first, several maps (vegetation cover and land uses maps and thematic maps of various organizations) were collected or prepared. For digitizing geology, vegetation and conventional […]
Fresh water supply and its security encounter a high level of fluctuating variability under global climate changes. To address these concerns in catchment water management, a good understanding of land use/cover impacts on the hydrological cycle affecting water supply is crucial.
