Scale-Dependent Relationships between Land-Use Change and Its Determinants in the Volta Basin of Ghana
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Relationships between cropland change and presumed determinants were analyzed at scales ranging from 30 to 5100 m using logistic regression. The plot of the odds ratio across the spatial scales indicated that both biophysical ...
Land-Cover Dynamics in an Urban Area of Ghana
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The objectives of this study were to quantify land-cover changes. A short-term projection of land-cover distribution in a 2400-ha (1 ha = 10 000 m2 ) area of northern Ghana was generated. Landsat Thematic Mapper images ...
Land-Cover Change Analyses in the Volta Basin of Ghana
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multitemporal Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) images for 1984, 1992, and 1999 were used to map and detect land-cover changes in a 5400-km2 area within the Volta Lake basin of Ghana. The most dominant land-cover change was the ...
