This study investigated the impacts of LULC changes on selected ecosystem services in Maze National Park (MzNP) and its environs southwestern Ethiopia. Landsat images from 1985, 2005, 2020 were used to examine land use cover (LULC) changes. Images classified using Random Forest (RF) classifier, their accuracy was computed QGIS. Ecosystem service values (ESVs) then estimated benefit transfer method employing Service Valuation Database (ESVD) coefficients. Additionally, socioeconomic survey conducted understand local community's perceptions regarding dynamics services.

Abstract Analyzing land use and cover (LULC) is crucial for understanding community development evaluating changes in the Anthropocene era. Traditional LULC mapping struggles with challenges like capturing under cloud limited ground truth data. To enhance accuracy comprehensiveness of change descriptions, this study applies a blend advanced techniques. Specifically, it utilizes Landsat-8 satellite imagery 30- meter multitemporal resolution, alongside computing capabilities Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform. Additionally, random forest (RF) algorithm integrated into study. This research aims to generate sustainable maps Samin Watershed years 2014 2023. A novel dual composite RF approach based on classification used create final map, leveraging RF-50 RF-100 tree models. Both models seven input bands (B1 B7) as datasets classification.
