Wetlands provide vital ecological and socioeconomic services but face escalating pressures worldwide. This study undertakes an integrated spatiotemporal assessment of the multifaceted vulnerabilities shaping Khinjhir Lake, ecologically significant wetland ecosystem in Pakistan, using advanced geospatial machine learning techniques. Multi-temporal optical remote sensing data from 2000 to 2020 was analyzed through spectral water indices, land cover classification, change detection risk mapping...
This study undertook an assessment of 24 physiochemical parameters at over 1094 sites to compute the water quality index (WQI) across upper and central Punjab regions Pakistan. Prior WQI calculation, analytical hierarchy process (AHP) was employed assign specific weights each parameter. The categorization into distinct classes achieved by constructing a pairwise matrix based on their relative importance utilizing Saaty’s scale. Additionally, groundwater status for irrigation drinking...
Groundwater contamination poses a severe public health risk in Lahore, Pakistan’s second-largest city, where over-exploited aquifers are the primary municipal and domestic water supply source. This study presents first comprehensive district-wide assessment of groundwater quality across Lahore using an innovative integrated approach combining geographic information systems (GIS), multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA), indexing techniques. The core objectives were to map spatial...
Abstract Groundwater remains the most dependable resource for various essential uses such as drinking, cleansing, agricultural irrigation, and industrial applications. In urban areas, dependency on groundwater to meet water demands is significant. However, this faces threats from overuse poor management, leading a degradation in quality primarily due unchecked release of household wastes. The escalation activities rapid growth have amplified volume wastewater, adversely affecting purity...
The Manchar Lake wetland complex, Pakistan's largest freshwater-lake, faces unprecedented ecological challenges amidst climate change and human pressures, necessitating urgent, data-driven conservation strategies. This study employs cutting-edge multi-sensor remote sensing techniques to quantify analyze the dynamic changes in this critical ecosystem from 2015 2023, aiming provide a comprehensive understanding of dynamics for informed management decisions. Integrating Sentinel-1 Synthetic...
Urban expansion and changes in land use/land cover (LULC) have intensified recent decades due to human activity, influencing ecological developmental landscapes. This study investigated historical projected LULC urban growth patterns the districts of Multan Sargodha, Pakistan, using Landsat satellite imagery, cloud computing, predictive modelling from 1990 2030. The analysis images was grouped into four time periods (1990–2000, 2000–2010, 2010–2020, 2020–2030). Google Earth Engine...
