The effects of recent landuse on a fynbos site
Landuse from 1920 to 1981 on the Fynbos Biome Research site at Pella, approximately 40 kilometres north of Cape Town, South Africa, and its immediate environs was studied to investigate possible causal relationships between Landuse and management practices and the resultant ecosystem. Fire has …

The Use of Landsat Thematic Mapper in the Study of Landuse/Cover and Water Quality Relationships
… research seeks to study the relationship between Landuse/cover change and water quality in reservoirs in Jordan. Landuse changes were detected by using Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) images obtained for King Talal reservoir in 1990 and 2006 and for Karameh reservoir in 1998 and 2006. Geometric …

Quantifying factors that influence road deicer retention and export in a multi-landuse Upstate New York watershed
… the small (~9.6 km2) Fuler Hollow Creek multi-landuse watershed in Broome County NY and monitored over a 1-year period. Weekly grab samples were taken at each sonde site and analyzed for dissolved cations and anions to help interpret the sensor results. Data from these sensors and local weather …

Changes in landuse patterns in upland watersheds of Eastern Luangwa Valley, Zambia, and the potential impact on runoff and erosion
… on runoff, erosion and sediment delivery. Landuse was delineated from 2007 IKONOS image (one meter pixel), and Landsat imagery was used to depict the historic changes in landuse between the period of 1989 and 2007. The GWLF model was used to predict the impact of the landuses on the …

Macroinvertebrate Community Structure as an Indicator of Watershed Health in the Upper Trinity River Basin, North Central Texas
… Geospatial techniques were used to quantify landuse within the watershed in a GIS. At rural sites near the headwaters of the Trinity River, collector-gathering burrowers that are adapted to minimal flow comprised the majority of taxa. Destinies of taxa compositions at downstream sites …

Wilson's Creek, Greene and Christian Counties, Missouri: Water Quality Macroinvertebrate Indices, and Planning Implications Using Gis, Based on Watershed Landuse and Water Contamination Hazards
… were used to map and measure areas of watershed landuse in 1984 and 1995, to use Aley and Thomson's criteria to expand their 1980 map of Greene County water contamination hazard areas to include Christian County portions of the watershed, and to combine 1995 landuse and water contamination hazard …

Wetland Characteristics of Avian Cholera Outbreaks and Surface Water Transfer in the Nebraska Rainwater Basin Area
… characteristics (classification type, adjacent landuse, basin landuse, and basin densities) were also investigated for relationships to 1981 avian cholera outbreaks. No surface drainage relationships were found that would permit the transfer of P. multocida from one wetland basin to another. …

Headwater Catchments: Estimating Surface Drainage Extent Across North Carolina and Correlations Between Landuse, Near Stream, and Water Quality Indicators in the Piedmont Physiographic Region
The study used the traditional contour crenulation (T-CC) method to map-measure drainage lengths in seven first-order blue-line (FO-BL) drainage areas located in the Piedmont of North Carolina. They were compared to field measured lengths. Results indicated strong correlations between the lengths …
