The combined effect of these changes could also result a global impact on the natural as well as the human environment. To make informed planning and management decisions in addressing these adverse impacts, in-deep knowledge and information on the local scale changes require an immediate attention. This study aimed to investigate the extent and magnitude of LULC changes in Finote Birihan kebele, Ethiopia from 1986 to 2018 using Geographic information system (GIS) and remote sensing approaches. It is found that in the current study area, agriculture land and built-up area has increased by about 37 and 497%, respectively at the expense of grassland (55%), forest land (33%) and shrub lands (32%). Keywords: LULC change, Geographic information system, Natural environment, Remote sensing Finote Birihane, I. INTRODUCTION Land use and land cover (LULC) change is a worldwide challenge influencing local to global environment [1]–[5]. Human beings had been degraded and changed the land and its resources in a variety of ways for their existence (Vitousek et al. 1997; Lambin et al. 2003). Changes in land-use and land-cover in most cases may pose a big threat on the ecosystem and its fragile components [2], [4], [6], [7]. Changes in land use from forest to agriculture have become a major problem in developing countries including Ethiopia owing to rapid population growth and its subsequent resource scarcity [3]. Like other regions of Ethiopia, in recent decades Finote Birihan kebele (“Kebele” is the lowest administrative unit in Ethiopia) underwent rapid LULC changes, which have aggravated the process of land degradation. In order to balance the associated trade-off between satisfying immediate human needs and maintaining other ecosystem function, quantitative knowledge and evidences about ecosystem responses to land use is required [7]. In addition, sustainable management of natural resources also requires a frequent study and monitoring of LULC changes at different spatial and temporal scales [8]. In this case, use of Geographical information System (GIS) in couple with remote sensing techniques is proved to be effective in assessing and monitoring LULC changes (Bewket 2003; Erener et al. 2012; Mallupattu and Sreenivasula Reddy 2013; Rawat et al. 2013). Thus, the objective of this study is to analyze the spatial and temporal dynamics of LULC from 1986 to 2018 in Finote Birihane kebele and to generate LULC maps of these two years using GIS and remote sensing techniques. http://dx.doi.org/10.29322/IJSRP.8.6.2018.p7802 www.ijsrp.org International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2018 2 ISSN 2250-3153 II. MATERIALS AND METHODS 2.1.Study area The study was done in Finote Birihan kebele, located between 10°52'46.67"N latitude and 38°16'10.63"E Longitude in the north-western highlands of Ethiopia Amhara regional state Enebse Sar Mider Woreda (Fig. 1). The study area has a total population of 4,186 (2,007 male and 2,179 female), 858 households based on the data obtained from 2007 census of Ethiopian central Statistics Agency. The major livelihood of the community in this kebele is mixed subsistence rain feed farming system (rearing of animals and crop production). Figure 1. Location map of the study area. 2.2.Method of data collection and analysis For change detection over the 32 years of study periods, temporal satellite images of the year 1986 (Landsat 5ETM) and 2018 (Landsat 8OLI) were acquired from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) website (http://glovis.usgs.gov), where only cloud-free images were considered to maximize the classification accuracy. In order to get cloud-free images with similar phonological properties and make the classification process more efficient, images of drier period of the year (December, January and February) were considered. The overall flow chart of satellite image analysis depicted in Fig. 2. For this study, Arc GIS 10.2 and ENVI 5.3 software were employed for processing and analysis. The classification process for the current study consisted of pre-processing (geo- referencing, radiometric calibration, layer-stacking) and post-image processing phases.
