2. Study Objective
The forests in the Western Ghats have been undergoing rampant changes due to sustained anthropogenic pressure. The objectives of the study are to:
(i) Quantifying temporal LU changes from 2001 to 2016.
(ii) Understanding LULC dynamics with temporal land use change information and analysing change patterns.
(iii) Computation of LST and understanding LST response in coherence with temporal LULC changes.
