For developing countries, detailed soil resource data and maps are essential in land-use planning. Unfortunately, obtaining for mapping is expensive. Detailed studies countries often use the grid method. In addition to being time-consuming, method needs a lot of sample points surveyors. Geomorphometry can be less expensive alternative mapping. uses computationally measured terrain characteristics describe other hard-to-measure properties. our study, landform arrangements slopes were analyzed together create map pH. Bompon watershed, Indonesia, was used as case study. Soil units with potentially similar pH created based on classification system two geomorphometric parameters. samples taken from each units. The samples' compared predicted result. Regression tests performed see significance parameters conditions. show that results p value four layers 0.046, 0.019, 0.037, 0.047, respectively, 5% confidence level. According test result, indicate conditions Bompon. Our estimate suggests cheaper than by factor seven. ability properties could enable cheap fast production countries.

In this study, soil Muga watershed Upper Blue Nile Basin (Abay) under historical and future climate land use/land cover (LULC) change was assessed. Future LULC predicted based on map 1985, 2002, 2017. maps periods were delineated from Landsat images, using CA–Markov chain model. Precipitation for period projected six regional circulation models.

Land use change is known as one of the main influencing factors on soil erosion and sediment production processes. The objective article to study how land impacts by using Intensity Erosion Outflow (IntErO) a process-oriented model. has been conducted under changes within period 1991–2014 in Talar watershed located northern Iran. GIS environment was used prepare required maps including Digital Elevation Model (DEM), geology, use, soil, drainage network. climatology data average annual precipitation air temperature well volume torrential rain were extracted from meteorological stations inside around watershed. results indicates that, 1991–2014, forest area decreased 12,478.04 ha (6%), while other uses rainfed agriculture, rangeland, irrigated residential increased 7248.25, 4481.05, 476.00, 273.95 ha, respectively. estimated outflow with 100 year return interval 432.14 m3 s−1 1991, which 446.91 2014.

This study expounds the dynamic relationships among agricultural land-use change, rural population migration, and sediment transport. The variability of suspended load was detected by Mann–Kendall Pettitt tests. From 1961 to 2007, annual trend in concentration demonstrated significant reduction (α = 0.001), with decreasing rates 0.0144 g/L/y 84.7 t/y, respectively.

Increasing agroforestry areas with improper management has produced serious environmental problems, such as soil erosion. It is necessary to rapidly predict the spatial distribution of erosion risks in a large area, but there lack approaches that are suitable for mountainous regions. The objective this research was develop an approach can effectively employ remotely-sensed and ancillary data, map ecosystem region. This employed field survey soil-type maps, digital elevation model weather station Landsat imagery, extraction potential variables. used random forest identify eight key variables—slope, slope slope, normalized difference greenness index at leaf-on season, organic matter, fractional vegetation leaf-off precipitation June, percent clay—for mapping risk hickory plantations Western Zhejiang Province, China. results showed overall accuracy 89.8% obtained three levels risk. Approximately one-fourth were high-risk, requiring owners or decision makers take proper measures reduce problem. provides new risk, based on primary variables be extracted directly from data data. proposed will valuable other plantations, Torreya grandis, eucalyptus, rubber tree, playing important roles improving economic conditions local farmers face problems.
