Abstract

Knowledge of qualitative and quantitative characteristics of changes are extremely important in environmental planning, land use planning and sustainable development. Currently using VEGETATION maps is one of the key factors in data making for macro and micro planning. In this study, information of Landsat ETM + and OLI were used to display the time and location changes of VEGETATION in Behbahan city in 1378 and 1392 and calculated the NDVI index for this two years. In order to evaluate the quality changes of VEGETATION, the numerical values of the index was classified the 4 classes lush VEGETATION including of land with excellent coverage, very good coverage, good and poor coverage. Then, the changes were determined using CROSSTAB. The results showed qualitative and quantitative changes in VEGETATION for the study area has been extensive over 14 years, so that, the lands had excellent, good and poor coverage, their area were increased and land area which had good coverage, were decrease. The greatest increase in land area has been occurred with excellent coverage, so that, it had increased from 5069.76 in 1378 to 7735.5 hactar in 1392. Also, the most reduction in land area has been occurred with good coverage, which reached from 34061.4 hactar to 27434.43 hactar. Finally, regression equation was obtained to show better relationship between the two parameters of VEGETATION and temperature. These results is confirmed that vegetated has a lower temperature and this surface has the cooling effects on surrounding. Therefore, the destruction of VEGETATION will follow the warming of city surface and environmental consequences.
