Modeling and Predicting Land Use Land Cover Spatiotemporal Changes: A Case Study in Chalus Watershed, Iran

Sepideh Jalayer et al.

Summary: This study detected the temporal and spatial changes in land use and land cover patterns in the Chalus watershed over the last two decades using multitemporal Landsat images and predicted future changes for the year 2040. The findings revealed a significant increase in agricultural land and barren area, and a sharp decline in grassland and forest cover. The model predicted a continued decrease in forest cover and an expansion of barren area, agricultural land, and built-up area by 2040. Understanding the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use and land cover change is crucial in minimizing destructive consequences.

Multiscale Dual-Branch Residual Spectral-Spatial Network With Attention for Hyperspectral Image Classification

Saeed Ghaderizadeh et al.

Summary: The development of remote sensing images has allowed for the identification of materials in inaccessible environments and the study of natural materials on a large scale. This article proposes a multiscale dual-branch residual spectral-spatial network with attention (MDBRSSN) to improve the accuracy of hyperspectral image (HSI) classification, particularly when training samples are limited. The MDBRSSN model achieves high classification accuracy when compared to state-of-the-art methods, as demonstrated in the experiments conducted on four datasets.

EFFECT OF PLANT GROWTH PROMOTING BACTERIA AND DROUGHT ON SPRING MAIZE (ZEA MAYS L.)

Muhammad Mubeen et al.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the impact of two different PGPR species on maize under drought stress, with Pseudomonas putida showing more effectiveness in increasing chlorophyll content and total dry matter (TDM), crop growth rate (CGR), grain yield, and water use efficiency compared to Bacillus cereus. Application of PGPR in the rhizosphere and foliar spray were found to be more efficient for grain yield and WUE for TDM, with foliar spray showing the highest harvest index. It is recommended to use foliar spray of PGPR at 3-4 leaf stage for higher maize yields.
