Spatiotemporal Changes of Forest Cover and Land Surface Temperature Using Geo-Spatial Techniques in Talra Wildlife Sanctuary, Shimla, North-Western Himalaya
Abstract:Geophysical parameter such as Land Surface Temperature (LST) plays an important role in studies related to hydrological processes, climate change, Forest Cover Change (FCC) detections, soil moisture estimations, vegetation water stress, etc. Thermal Infrared Sensors (TIRS) for several FCC categories are measured heat signatures. Deforestation, forest fire, grazing, and anthropogenic activities were witnessed in Protected Areas (PAs) forests. For the Single Channel (SC) algorithm and the Split Window (SW) algor… Show more
