Remote Sensing Center

As part of scientific efforts aimed at supporting environmental, agricultural, and water plans and addressing the effects of climate change in Nineveh Governorate, a joint scientific research paper by instructors at the Remote Sensing Center at the University of Mosul, Professor Sabah Hussein Ali and Dr. Khansa Abdul-Ilah Ahmed, in collaboration with Dr. Abdul Sattar Asmir Al-Rajabo, was published. The paper, titled “Impact of Climate Change on the Spatial Distribution of Rainfall on the Agriculture Branches in Nineveh Governorate Using Geographic Information Systems,” was published in the peer-reviewed scientific journal: IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, which is included in the global Scopus database. The research examined the impact of climate change on the spatial distribution of rainfall in Nineveh Governorate, while updating the rainfall map for the governorate’s agricultural areas using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technologies and modern satellite climate data. This will contribute to enhancing the accuracy of environmental and agricultural planning.
This research represents one of the activities of the Remote Sensing Center in supporting applied research that serves sustainable development issues, including Goal 13: Climate Action, Goal 2: Zero Hunger, and Goal 15: Life on Land.
