Analysis of seasonal environmental fragility using the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and soil loss estimation in the Urutu watershed, Brazil.
Abstract:Land use intensification has contributed to the emergence of impacts on the environment such as soil loss, silting of watercourses, and biodiversity reduction, among others. Using models that can seasonally diagnose environmental damage is of fundamental importance in territorial planning and management. This work aimed to analyze the seasonal Environmental Fragility (EF) from the autumn of 2019 to the summer of 2020 using the soil loss estimate. To do this, data such as slope, erodibility, erosivity and the n… Show more
