Land Intensive Land Use
View full bibliographic record View citing articles Abstract Land degradation and environmental impacts are major impediments to the utilization of land in many arid and semiarid regions of the world and are a major issue in the Northwestern Sinai NWSEgypt.
Water-logged, saltaffected soils, coastal erosion and sand dunes encroachment are serious environmental hazards resulting in the wasteland and geoenvironmental risks. The present work utilizes image processing and GIS techniques to determine most of the causes that result in intensive land degradations and recommends appropriate remedial measures within the NWS. Many image processing techniques and statistical analysis were applied to draw numerous thematic and geospatial distribution maps for the degraded lands. The results showed that the Lanf change in LC was attributed to human activities which led to heavy deteriorations of NWS environment.
Also, the prevalence of natural risk corresponding to coastal erosion, water level rising and sand dunes encroachment increase the susceptibility of hazards to the NWS area. The current study provides decision makers and resources managers with appropriate remedial measures that are necessary to avoid severe future environmental difficulties within the NWS.]
