Discrimination among Climate, Human Activities, and Ecosystem Functional-Induced Land Degradation in Southern Africa

Discrimination among Climate, Human Activities, and Ecosystem Functional-Induced Land Degradation in Southern Africa

Land degradation threatens ecosystems and socio-economic development of Southern Africa. Evaluation of land degradation is widely conducted using a remote-sensed indicator to provide key information for alleviating degradation. However, the commonly used single indicator cannot reveal complex degrad...
