Restoration of degraded land is a significant concern in the 21st century order to combat impacts climate change. For this reason, provisional government Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK), Pakistan, initialized Billion Tree Tsunami Project (BTTP) 2013 and finished it 2017. Although few researchers have investigated use transitions under BTTP short term by merging all vegetation types into one, analysis long-term benefits project future persistence were missing. Furthermore, previous studies not discussed whether prime objective was achieved. Considering existing gaps, research mainly involves analyzing (i) fluctuations green fraction employing change modeler (LCM), along with spatial location gain-loss exchange using high-resolution dataset (GLC30); (ii) forest cover changes influence BTTP; (iii) towards surface temperature (LST) utilizing less-explored technique curve fit linear regression modeling (CFLR); finally, (iv) assessing NDVI LST trends Hurst exponent. Research findings indicate that as an output BTTP, despite government’s claim increasing 2%, gain grassland (3904.87 km2) observed at cost bare land. In comparison, overall increase only 0.39%, which does satisfy main project. On other hand, CFLRM-based actual contributions (LCC) transition decline areas gains for both forest. At same time, reverse transitions. results appear positive climatic term, HURST model-based revealed locations decreasing fall weakly persistent category, therefore these may continue near future. Despite some impact on attributed increase, cannot be regarded complete success due its failure achieve objective.

This paper explores the relationship between normalized vegetation index (NDVI) response to precipitation and temperature conditions by analyzing spatial temporal variation of cover in Mu Us Desert during 2000-2019. MODIS indices are designed provide consistent comparisons conditions. Maximum Value Composites (MVC) is an internationally used statistical method for NDVI data. Based on remote sensing data, sandy land from 2000 2019 was analyzed using linear regression slope method. In 2000-2010 2010-2019, there a difference change rate Desert, with average 0.0650/10a former 0.0782/10a latter. The trends values study area 2000-2019 were roughly same as those precipitation, slightly different temperature, but overall correlation both good. There significant positive annual (0.687), weak (0.264). growth affected temperature.
