Using Gis and Remote Sensing in the Study of the Influence of Drought on Changes in Forest Cover Around the Aral Sea
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study explores the impact of drought on forest cover changes around the Aral Sea using GIS and remote sensing technologies. Satellite imagery from Landsat and MODIS is analyzed to assess the temporal and spatial changes in forest health, revealing significant deforestation, particularly in the southern and eastern parts of the region. The findings highlight the increasing desertification and soil erosion caused by drought, with adverse effects on local biodiversity and ecosystem services. The study underscores the value of GIS and remote sensing in monitoring environmental changes and supporting restoration efforts in the Aral Sea region.
