Resumen
RODRIGUES, Joez André de Moraes et al. Spatial-temporal dynamics of Caatinga vegetation cover by remote sensing in the Brazilian semiarid region. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2020, vol.87, n.215, pp.109-117. Epub 07-Ene-2021. ISSN 0012-7353. https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v87n215.87851.
The Brazilian semiarid region is marked by water scarcity, which causes the loss of leaves from native vegetation to reduce transpiration. With the reduction of the Caatinga leaf area, the soil becomes more exposed, which makes it a great ally for environmental degradation. This study aimed to monitor and analyze the spatial-temporal dynamics of the Caatinga vegetation by orbital remote sensing in the semiarid region of Pernambuco, Brazil, in the rainy and dry season. The study was developed from Landsat-8 satellite images between the years 2013-2018. From the SEBAL algorithm, thematic maps of the biophysical parameters were determined: albedo and surface temperature, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), soil-adjusted vegetation index (SAVI), and leaf area index (LAI). The results show that in the dry season, there is a greater aptitude for environmental degradation to occur.
