Stochastic modeling of urban growth using the CA-Markov chain and multi-scenario prospects in the tropical humid region of Ethiopia: Mettu

Urban expansion possesses significant negative impacts on the environment, particularly in forest areas worldwide. This study aimed to analyze urban expansion by using stochastic modeling with the CA-Markov chain and multi-scenario prospects in Mettu area, Ethiopia. The Landsat images of 1986, 2000,...
