  • Land Use Land Cover in the Western Ghats, India
    Land Use Land Cover in the Western Ghats, India Effects of Human Modification and Use on Protected Areas Paul Gerlach, Malissa Hubbard, Elizabeth Norment Dr. Jennifer Swenson and Dr. Krithi Karanth, Advisors May 2013 Masters project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Environmental Management degree in the Nicholas School of the Environment of Duke University 2013 ABSTRACT In India’s Western Ghats mountain range, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Conservation International biodiversity hotspot, human-caused habitat loss threatens many native species. A number of protected areas have been created to provide a refuge for these species and prevent further habitat loss. However, encroaching development continues to threaten these delicate ecosystems. Despite the area’s environmental value, there is no reliable, high-resolution land use land cover (LULC) map that would allow managers to estimate the extent and distribution of development as well as habitat condition and connectivity across the region. Using ASTER imagery, we conducted LULC classifications of 6 protected areas and their surroundings (20 km buffers). Separate classifications were conducted on Anshi-Dandeli National Park, Nagarahole and Bandipur National Parks, BRT Wildlife Sanctuary, and Kudremukh and Bhadra Wildlife Sanctuaries, for a total of four classification regions. We conducted both supervised maximum likelihood and unsupervised ISODATA classifications. Accuracy of the supervised classifications was higher than accuracy of the unsupervised classifications, with values ranging from 75.6- 84.4%. Forest class accuracy ranged from 74% - 91%. We used the LULC classifications to assess the amount of forest cover within the protected areas and in the 20 km surrounding buffer.
