ASSESSMENT OF LAND USE/ COVER CHANGE IN THE PERIOD 2000 – 2015 AND FORECAST TO 2030 IN TRA VINH PROVINCE

Abstract

Land use/ cover change of Tra Vinh province has been adversely affected by climate change. Therefore, it is extremely necessary to have solutions to tackle this problem immediately and thoroughly. First and foremost, some measures should be taken which involve restructuring covering/ land use together with the restructuring of seed varieties and crop to ensure the effective and sustainable development. For an overview of these changes as well as forecasts for the following years, this study uses remote sensing especially Landsat changes in covering/ land use from 2000 to 2015, combined with Markov Chain mode to analyze the volatility overlay structure/ main land use in Tra Vinh province to 2030.
