Monitoring the Effect of Hydro-Climatic at the Levels of Darbandikhan Lake by Using Remote Sensing techniques

Abstract

The study deals with the effect of hydro-climatic impact on the lake of Darbandikhan in Suleimani Governorate by using remote sensing techniques , And it was achieved through three axes , The first axis analysis of the appearance of the land of the lake, The second axis focused on the analysis of the hydro-climatic of the lake area. The third axis included monitoring the changes that took place in the lake using satellite images for the years 1990 and 2000. The study showed the effect of hydrological factors through the in and out of the lake from the Iraqi and Iranian lands on the one hand and the impact of climatic factors on the fluctuation of precipitation systems on the other hand. These operations were carried out using the DEM and Landsat8 color image and using a number of programs such as Erdas, GLOBEL MAPPER, ENVI and GIS.
