Abstract

The study area was classified into three categories (vegetation cover, water, and others)using four satellite images of the Landsat 8 satellite captured during March for the period 2019-2022 into. The results showed that there is a change in the climatic conditions (temperature and rainfall) for the years of the study. The average temperature increased from 12.29°C to 25.967°C from the year 2019 to 2022. The annual amount of precipitation was decreased from 469.43 mm for the year 2019 to 105.49 mm for the year 2022.this negatively changed affected the water and agricultural resources, as the amount of water storage for Lake Hamrin and Lake Al-Wand together reached to 2,314,584,000 m3 and 40,404,000 m3 for the years 2019 and 2022, respectively. This led to decrease in the vegetation area from 1587.29 km2 to 356.17 for the year 2019 km2 and 2022, respectively.
