Spectral responses in rangelands and land cover change by livestock in regions of the Caatinga biome, Brazil
Abstract This study aimed to analyze fragments of rangelands through spectral responses and land cover change by livestock in regions of the Caatinga biome through remote sensing. For spectral behavior, the surface reflectance bidirectional (SRB) and spectral indexes of vegetation were used to verif...
