Abstract

Land degradation processes prevail in the terrestrial ecosystem of Kuwait, which dotted by a high number of land degradation hotspots. Therefore, the detection and identify of hot spots related to land degradation and thus vegetation cover are required. The information provided by satellites on land desertification and plant degradation is the most important pillar of demonstration, which relied upon in combating this dangerous environmental phenomenon. In this present study, based on the available information, the determination of land and vegetation cover deterioration were done. After that, the phenomenon resisted by replacing new plants and treating soil deterioration by following the recommendations and proposals through integrated environmental management and the cultivation of plants exists in the desert environmental lands in the State of Kuwait. The spatial distribution of land desertification in State of Kuwait was determined as well as we observed the disappearance of vegetation cover and an increase in land degradation due to overgrazing and human stress.
