The impact of human factors on the change in vegetation cover of the Be river basin in the period from 2000 to 2015

Tóm tắt

The Be river basin is located in the area with a rapid urbanization rate and a large immigrants proportion annually. Therefore, the population growth rate for the period from 2000 to 2015 in the river basin is up 3,53% which is 3,27 times as high as the population growth rate of Vietnam. These are the major causes leading to the fluctuation in vegetation cover of the Be river basin during over time. This research used methodologies including data collection, statistical analysis, mapping method and geographic information system to evaluate the impact of human factors to the vegetation cover fluctuation of the Be river basin in the period from 2000 to 2015. Based on the results of change map in the vegetation cover, a research group set up fluctuating matrix, analyze to clarify the vegetation coverfluctuation situation due to human’s impacts in the Be river basin in the period from 2000 to 2015.
