Effect of Land Use Changes in
Nekarood River Basin
• Land use change detection using remotely-
sensed data
• Hydrologic simulation of floods
• Prediction of future effects based of land
use change scenarios
• Further application: How to manage
spatially the timber harvesting and other
land activities
