Effects Of Drought

The phenomenon of prolonged drought as one of the consequences of climate change has significantly affected the agricultural production of rural communities in both mountainous and plain areas of Vietnam. This study, using standardized precipitation index (SPI) combining with the space technologies of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) to simulate and forecast the effects of drought on agricultural land use in Bac Tra My district, Quang Nam province. The data was set up for two scenarios of RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 in Bac Tra My district of Quang Nam province. Simultaneously, the research has also applied the focus group discussion, in-depth interview and field survey for data cross-checking to ensure highly reliable predictions. The research result has addressed four levels of drought, including normal, mild, moderate and severe drought appearing in the Summer-Autumn crop in the period 2016 – 2035 of the district. In which, severe drought will appear on large scale for both scenarios of RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 for 5 types of agricultural land use including paddy, annual crop, perennial, afforestation and aquacultural land. From these findings, the local authorities can consider and apply the adaptation and mitigation measures to climate change in agricultural land use planning.

The land is a delineable area of the earth's surface, encompassing all attributes of the biosphere immediately above or below this surface. Physical characteristics of the land determine agricultural land use. Among them, relief and slope play an important role. Aim of this study is to establish the relationship of relief and slope with agricultural land use in Valapattanam River basin in Kannur district using GIS and Remote sensing. The Survey of India Topographic maps in 1:50000 scale was used as a base map for delineating the basin. Contours were digitized and Digital Elevation Model (DEM) was generated. Agricultural land use map was prepared using satellite digital data by the digital image processing method using ERDAS IMAGINE image processing software. Agricultural land use map was intersected with the relief and slope classes in ArcGIS software. Areas were calculated and the trend of agricultural land use patterns was studied. The study revealed that there is a strong correlation between Agricultural land use and relief and slope in the Valapattanam River basin. Most of the area under paddy, coconut, mixed crops like banana and tapioca concentrated below 20 m height in the coastal plain and valley regions of the basin. Rubber mostly cultivated between 100 and 300 meters with slopes between 3 to 12 degrees. Agriculture is limited up to 18-degree slope and 300 m height. Areas of more than 300 m height are occupied mostly by forest.

Land Uses

We analyzed the agricultural land-use changes in the coastal areas of Tien Hai district, Thai Binh province, in 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2020, using Landsat 5 and Landsat 8 data. We used the object-oriented classification method with the maximum likelihood algorithm to classify six types of land uses. The series of land-use maps we produced had an overall accuracy of more than 80%. We then conducted a spatial analysis of the 5-year land-use change using ArcGIS software. In addition, we surveyed 150 farm households using a structured questionnaire regarding the impacts of climate change on agricultural productivity and land uses, as well as farmers’ adaptation and responses. The results showed that from 2005 to 2020, cropland decreased, while aquaculture land and forest land increased. We observed that the most remarkable decreases were in the area of rice (485.58 ha), the area of perennial crops (109.7 ha), and the area of non-agricultural land (747.35 ha). The area of land used for aquaculture and forest increased by 566.88 ha and 772.60 ha, respectively. We found that the manifestations of climate change, such as extreme weather events, saltwater intrusion, drought, and floods, have had a profound impact on agricultural production and land uses in the district, especially for annual crops and aquaculture. The results provide useful information for state authorities to design land-management strategies and solutions that are economic and effective in adapting to climate change.

This study applied GIS and remote sensing technology to assess agricultural land use and vegetative cover in Kano Metropolis. It specifically examined the intensity of land use for agricultural and non agricultural purpose from 1975 – 2015. Images (1975, 1995 and 2015), landsat MSS/TM, landsat 8, scene of path 188 and 052 were downloaded for the study. Bonds for these imported scenes were processed using ENVI 5.0 version. The result indicated five classified features-settlement, farmland, water body, vegetation and bare land. The finding revealed an increase in settlement, vegetation and bare land between 1995 and 2015, however, farmland decreased in 2015. Indicatively, higher percentage of land use for non agricultural purposes was observed in recent time. Conclusively, there is need to accord surveying the rightful place and priority in agricultural planning and development if Nigeria is to be self food sufficient.

<p>The climate change causes major problems in natural disasters such as storms and droughts and has significant impacts on agricultural activities. Especially, global warming changed crops cultivated causing changes in agricultural land-use, and droughts along with land-use change accompanied serious problems in irrigation management. Moreover, it is very problematic to detect drought impacted areas with field survey and it burdens irrigation management. In South Korea, drought in 2012 occurred in western area while 2015 drought occurred in eastern area. The drought cycle in Korea is irregular but the drought frequency has shown an increasing pattern. Remote sensing approaches has been used as a solution to detect drought areas in agricultural land-use and many approaches has been introduced for drought monitoring. This study introduces remote sensing approaches to detect agricultural drought by calculation of local threshold associated with agricultural land-use. We used Landsat-8 satellite images for drought and non-drought years, and Vegetation Health Index(VHI) was calculated using red, near-infrared, and thermal-infrared bands. The comparative analysis of VHI values for the same agricultural land-use between drought year and non-drought year derived the threshold values for each type of land-use. The results showed very effective detection of drought impacted areas showing distinctive differences in VHI value distributions between drought and non-drought years.</p>
