Abstract

This research explores the dynamics of land use and cover change in the Tempe Lake area from 2013 to 2023, aiming to understand environmental management and spatial utilization over a decade. Utilizing remote sensing data and supervised classification techniques, this study presents a detailed quantitative analysis of changes in five major land categories. The results indicate significant shifts: an increase in water bodies and agricultural land highlights practical water conservation efforts and adjustments of farm practices. However, decreases in natural vegetation and open land signal potential ecological threats and increased anthropogenic pressures. These findings underline the need for integrated policies that balance environmental sustainability with local economic needs. The study's novelty lies in its long-term perspective and its implications for sustainable land management practices.
