## Abstract Effects of changes in landβcover on soil quality parameters in an area in northern Ghana were studied. Landβcover changes were derived from maps of the study area for 1984, 1992 and 1999. There were no significant differences between properties of soils under natural vegetation and soil

An important consideration for monitoring land-cover (LC) change is the nominal temporal frequency of remote sensor data acquisitions required to adequately characterize change events. Ecosystem-specific regeneration rates are an important consideration for determining the required frequency of data
## Abstract We investigated the influence of recent and future landβcover changes on stream flow of a watershed northeastern Puerto Rico using hydrological modeling and simulation analysis. Monthly and average annual stream flows were compared between an agricultural period (1973β1980) and an urban
## Abstract This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of deforestation on physical and chemical properties of soils under native forest in the Mediterranean region of northwestern Jordan. Land use/cover maps of 1953, 1978 and 2002 were interpreted and analysed within GIS to quantify the sh
## Abstract Lake Qinghai, the largest saline lake in China, covers 4234βkm^2^ (2007) with a catchment area of 29β660βkm^2^ on the northeastern margin of the QinghaiβTibet Plateau. The ecosystem of the lake is extremely vulnerable and sensitive to global climate change and human interference. Howeve
