Evapotranspiration (ET) is a key component of the hydrological cycle, encompassing evaporation processes from soil and water surfaces and plant transpiration (Sun et al., 2017). Accurate estimation of ET is vital for effective water resource management, agricultural planning, and environmental monitoring (Gowda et al., 2008). However, the complex i...

Quantifying landscape fragmentation is crucial for understanding its impact on biodiversity. Within landscape ecology, there is an ongoing effort to create metrics that systematically characterize landscape patterns and predict their effects on various species. In this study, we utilized Fourier transforms to measure landscape fragmentation in urba...

This study employed remote sensing data, geographic information systems, and statistical methods to analyze the morphometric features of the Antsokia watershed and its sub-watersheds. It assessed drainage network, watershed geometry, drainage texture, and relief characteristics. The Antsokia watershed is drained mainly by a sixth-order river with a...

Forest biomass is estimated using a volume model, wood basic density (wbd), and biomass expansion factor (BEF). However, in Ethiopia, there is a shortage of volume models, hence the volume estimation was carried out using a generic model. As a result, estimation may be subject to bias when applied in areas outside its original geographic range of d...

Agroforestry practices in eastern Ethiopia are renowned for their multifunctional landscapes, contributing significantly to biodiversity conservation and enhancement. However, there is a lack of comprehensive studies on the diversity and structure of woody species within coffee-based and parkland agroforestry systems documented in a single study. T...

The results of the studies devoted to the consequences of the Kakhovka dam destruction and the empting of the Kakhovske reservoir are presented. The water regime of the lower reaches of the Dnipro River was studied, in particular, the water temperature. The remote sensing data on spatial features of water temperature are given. Significant changes ...

Widespread forest dieback following a series of exceptionally dry seasons has made restoration by relic heliophilous tree-species uncertain. Using logistic regression, we identified conditions suitable for relic Norway spruce (Picea abies /L./Karst.), Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), European larch (Larix decidua Mill.), birches (Betula sp.), popl...
