Monitoring Forest Cover Dynamics for Achieving SDGs Using Google Earth Engine : A Case Study Menagesha Forest, Ethiopia

Belay

Throughout the world, the effects of climate change are becoming increasingly evident as temperatures rise, glaciers melt, greenhouse gases increase, sea level rise accelerates, and global warming approaches. This situation needs to be addressed urgently. In particular, forests play an important role in the transition to a circular economy by providing various biomass resources that are not food or feed. As well as sequestering carbon, conserving biodiversity, and providing ecosystem services, they are also a source of carbon. Forests, however, are challenged by climate change, so it is essential to enhance their resilience and ability to provide these vital goods and services.
