چکیده

در سال­های اخیر بخش قابل توجهی از جنگل­های بلوط غرب کشور با پدیده خشکیدگی مواجه شده است. بررسی­های اولیه، یکی از عوامل تاثیر­گذار بر خشکیدگی جنگل­های بلوط را افزایش فراوانی وقوع و شدت پدیده گرد و غبار معرفی کرده­اند. در این مطالعه، از تصاویر سنجنده مادیس با قدرت تفکیک­ مکانی یک کیلومتر و 250 متر و اطلاعات هواشناسی ایستگاه­های هم­دیدی استان کرمانشاه مربوط به دوره زمانی 15 ساله (2014-2000) برای بررسی پدیده گرد و غبار و روند تغییرات سبزینگی جنگل در این استان استفاده شد. بررسی شدت گرد و غبار با استفاده از داده­‌های دید افقی و طبقه‌­بندی تصاویر با روش نظارت­نشده صورت گرفت. همچنین، در این پژوهش ارتباط فراوانی وقوع گرد و غبار و روند تغییرات سبزینگی در محدوده­های خشکیدگی جنگل­های بلوط مورد­ بررسی قرار گرفت. بررسی رخداد گرد و غبار نشان داد که در استان کرمانشاه به­­ترتیب بیشترین روزهای دارای گرد و غبار در سال­های 2008 و 2009 به‌وقوع پیوسته است. بیشترین فراوانی وقوع گرد و غبارهای شدید مربوط به سال 2012 بوده است. همچنین، بررسی تصاویر ماهواره­ای و شاخص­های طیفی نشان داد که بیشترین کاهش سبزینگی در جنگل­های متراکم (با بیش از 50 درصد تاج پوشش) به میزان 67 درصد و با دقت کلی 62 درصد در محدوده جنوب و جنوب شرق استان کرمانشاه و در مرز استان­های لرستان و ایلام اتفاق افتاده است. همچنین، نتایج نشان داد که فراوانی پدیده گرد و غبار با پدیده کاهش سبزینگی جنگل بلوط همبستگی بالایی (0.7) دارد و گرد و غبار، بر کاهش سبزینگی جنگل­های بلوط استان کرمانشاه تاثیر­گذار است.

چکیده [English]

In recent years, a considerable part of the western oak forests of the country has been faced with drought and decline. Initial studies have identified one of the factors affecting oak forest dryness as increasing frequency and severity of dust phenomenon. In this study, the MODIS sensors with a resolution of 1 km and 250 m and meteorological data of Kermanshah Province synoptic stations over a 15-years period (2014-2000) was used to investigate the dust phenomenon and the process of forest vegetation changes in the region. Dust intensity was investigated using visibility data and unsupervised image classification method. Also, in this study, the relationship between the occurrence of dust and vegetation changes in oak forests was investigated. Survey of dust events showed that Kermanshah Province had the highest number of dust events in 2008 and 2009, respectively. The highest incidence of severe dust was in 2012. In addition, satellite imagery and spectral indices also showed that the highest reduction of vegetation in dense forests (>50% canopy cover) by 67% and with an overall accuracy of 62% in the south and southeast of Kermanshah Province and at the border of Lorestan and Ilam provinces has happened. Results also showed that the frequency of dust phenomenon is highly correlated (70%) with the phenomenon of oak forest degradation; and dust has the effect of reducing the greenness of oak forests in Kermanshah province.
