Classifying and mapping of vegetated area in Al- Baha region, Saudi Arabia using remote sensing shows that the medium-high density vegetation is mostly found at the central part of Al-Baha region separating the highlands and the low lands. Results obtained show that only 862.5 km2 (7.7%) Al-Baha region is covered with medium-high density vegetation found mainly at the 6-15km width horizontal central belt (at districts of Al-Mandaq, Al-Baha and south Baljurashi) along high foggy mountainous plateau. Whereas, about 65% of Al-Baha region has very low-none density vegetation mainly occurred extensively at Tihama low plain towards the Red Sea and at the north-eastern desert plain. In addition, study reveals that the highlands of Al-Baha have the most numbers of trees represents the areas of the highest elevations in the region (range between 1940 and 2366 m above sea level. This indicates that there is relationship between this elevation range with medium to high vegetation density. Similarly, the low surface temperatures are mainly located at the central belt across Al-Baha region. When overlaid with medium-high vegetation density zone with the temperature map, it was visually observed that it almost fit with lower temperature zone of less than 15°C. This also indicates that there is relationship between lower temperature with medium-high vegetation density.

Geomorphology is closely related to geology, soil science, hydrology and environmental science and is being increasingly applied in planning, mining and hydrological sectors, and within environmental consultancy and tourism. The study area lies in the north-eastern part of the country and tectonically this area belongs to Surma Basin situated into Bengal Fore deep zone of Bengal Basin also known as Sylhet Trough. Under this study an attempt was made to establish the relationship between geomorphic unit and existing landuse based on remote sensing data. In the study area nine landuse categories were identified through remote sensing and GIS techniques. Two different physiographic units which are North-Eastern Terrace Land and Surma-Kushiyara Flood Plain are belongs to the study are. Moreover two surface geological units include Young Gravelly Sand and Marsh Clay and Peat are also there. From analysis no relationship has been found between landuse classes with its physiography and surface geology. Environ. Sci. & Natural Resources, 12(1&2): 151-155, 2019
