The study examines the complex dynamics of changes in LULC over three decades, focused on years 1992, 2002, 2012, and 2022. research highlights significance comprehending these alterations within framework environmental socio-economic consequences. land use cover (LULC) have significant far-reaching effects ecosystems, biodiversity, human livelihoods. This offers useful information for politicians, conservationists, urban planners by examining historical patterns forecasting future changes. utilized a Multilayer Perceptron Neural Network (MLP-NN), well-known machine learning technique that excels at collecting intricate patterns. model's design had layers: input, hidden, output. model underwent 10,000 iterations during its training process, thorough statistical analysis was conducted to assess impact each driving component. MLP-NN demonstrated impressive performance, with skill measure 0.8724 an accuracy rate 89.08%. estimates 2022 verified comparing them observed data, ensuring reliability. Moreover, presence evidence likely found be factor substantial model. effectiveness accurately predicting LULC. exceptional proficiency make it powerful tool forecasts. Identifying primary causes performance understanding their implications may help enhance management strategies, encourage spatial planning, guide accurate decision-making, facilitate development policies align sustainable growth development.

The increase in flood events observed West African countries, and often specific river basins, can be influenced by several factors, including anthropogenic land use land-cover changes. However, the potential contribution of cover changes to still needs explored, especially Africa. Here, fully coupled atmosphere-hydrology WRF-Hydro system, which comprises an atmospheric model additionally incorporates surface, subsurface, overland flow, channel routing, is used investigate impact a change scenario on Senegal River basin. simulation was performed from 2010 2020, with calibration period spanning 2011 2012 validation 2013 2020. Several skill scores, Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE), BIAS, Kling-Gupta (KGE), were utilized assess performances. Additionally, two planetary boundary layer schemes (PBL5 PBL7) determine their associated uncertainty. Our results show that best (NSE = 0.70; KGE 0.83; PBIAS −7% BE 0.67) basin are obtained PBL5 when SLOPE parameter 0.03. A similar good performance also for NSE 0.74, 0.84, −8%. Likewise, our findings indicate converting savanna woody savannas elevate water resources, 2% rise precipitation 4% runoff. This transition correlates moderate (3500–4000 m 3 /s), decrease severe floods (4000–5000 occurrence extreme (>5000 /s)

Abstract Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) change has been a substantial environmental concern, hindering sustainable development over the past few decades. To that end, comprehending and future patterns of LULC is vital for conserving sustainably managing land resources. This study aimed to analyze spatiotemporal landscape dynamics from 1986 2022 predict situations 2041 2058, considering business-as-usual (BAU) scenario in Wabe River Catchment. The historical use image classification employed supervised technique using maximum likelihood algorithms ERDAS Imagine, identified six major cover classes. For projections changes multilayer perceptron neural network cellular automata-Markov chain were utilized, incorporating various driving factors independent spatial datasets. findings revealed significant ongoing catchment, with persistent trends expected. Notably, woodland, built-up areas, agriculture experienced net increases by 0.24%, 1.96%, 17.22% respectively, while grassland, forest, agroforestry faced notable decreases 4.65%, 3.58%, 11.20% respectively 2022. If current rate continues, agricultural lands will expand 1.28% 5.07%, forest decline 2.69% 3.63% 2058. However, woodland grassland exhibit divergent patterns, projected decrease 0.57% an anticipated increase 0.54% cover. Overall, observed indicated shift towards intensive agriculture, area expansion, potentially adverse consequences such as soil degradation, biodiversity loss, ecosystem decline. mitigate these promote development, immediate action necessary, including environmentally friendly conservation approaches, management practices, habitat protection, reforestation efforts, ensuring long-term resilience viability catchment’s ecosystems.
