Dynamics of Spatio-temporal Occupation of Biological Soils Crusts Using RS and GIS Approach in the Saria Catchment, West-central Region of Burkina Faso

Boussa Tockville Josue Mare, Alexandre BATIONO, Tog-Noma Patricia Emma Bontogho, Jean Ouedraogo & Edmond Hien · International Journal of Environment and Climate Change · 2024

In the semi-arid environments of sub-Saharan Africa, the combined action of climatic factors and human activities degrades the vegetation cover, resulting in soils that are vulnerable to the risk of erosion. This is when micro-organisms of various kinds, known as biological crust...
