Therefore, it is significant to know its spatial characterization and distribution in the country. We use spatial overlay analysis and the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) model for characterizing and modelling, respectively. Inputs for the model include 26 environmental variables—19 bioclimatic and seven biophysical—in addition to the geospatial location of enset field data. The model result was validated using Receiver Operating Characteristic curve method and the area under the curve (AUC) with 0.842 for cultivated enset and 0.760 (wild enset). The highest prediction (>0.5) of both varieties occurred in the southwestern, south-central and north-eastern parts of Ethiopia—17,293.67 km2 (cultivated) and 40,402 km2 (wild) area. The presence of both enset is probabilistically higher at the tropic-cool/sub-humid Agroecological Zones.

Sub-Saharan Africa carries a disproportionately high share of the global malaria burden. Ethiopia is generally considered a low-to-moderate malaria transmission intensity country. However, the health sector in Ethiopia is greatly affected by climate change, which has profound consequences on the transmission cycles of vector-borne infectious diseases like malaria. The main objective of the study was to assess the spatial distribution of malaria hazard, vulnerability, and risk areas in Dire Dawa City Administration. GIS and remote-sensing in general and multi-criteria evaluation (MCE) in particular was used for assessing and mapping malaria hazard, risk, and vulnerable areas in Dire Dawa City Administration based on the data collected from various sources. The malaria hazard map of the study area labeled 0.6% of the region as low-hazard level, 79.7% moderate, 19.7% high, and 0.1% very low. Results of malaria vulnerability analysis reveal that about 23%, 73%, and 4% of the region was found to be vulnerable to malaria risk at very high, high, and low levels, respectively. The malaria risk map classifies 80% of the region as a moderate malaria-risk area and 20% as high malaria-risk area. This assessment advocates that the GIS and remote-sensing technology as tools can be used to provide timely information on malaria hazard, vulnerability, and risk areas for planning and taking measures at various levels ranging from early warning, monitoring, and control to prevention against malaria epidemics in a resource-efficient and cost-effective way.

While deforestation can be monitored relatively easily, forest management practices are often subtle processes, that are difficult to capture with for example satellite monitoring. Conventional measurements are well established and can be useful for management decisions, but it is believed that Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) has a role in quantitative monitoring and continuous improvement of methods. In this study we used a combination of TLS and conventional forest inventory measures to estimate forest structural parameters in four different forest types in a tropical montane cloud forest in Kafa, Ethiopia. Here, the four forest types (intact forest, coffee forest, silvopasture, and plantations) are a result of specific management practices (e.g. clearance of understory in coffee forest), and not different forest communities or tree types. Both conventional and TLS derived parameters confirmed our assumptions that intact forest had the highest biomass, silvopasture had the largest canopy gaps, and plantations had the lowest canopy openness. Contrary to our expectations, coffee forest had higher canopy openness and similar biomass as silvopasture, indicating a significant loss of forest structure. The 3D vegetation structure (PAVD – Plant area vegetation density) was different between the forest types with the highest PAVD in intact forest and plantation canopy. Silvopasture was characterised by a low canopy but high understorey PAVD, indicating regeneration of the vegetation and infrequent fuelwood collection and/or non-intensive grazing. Coffee forest canopy had low PAVD, indicating that many trees had been removed, despite coffee needing canopy shade. These findings may advocate for more tangible criteria such as canopy openness thresholds in sustainable coffee certification schemes. TLS as tool for monitoring forest structure in plots with different forest types shows potential as it can capture the 3D position of the vegetation volume and open spaces at all heights in the forest. To quantify changes in different forest types, consistent monitoring of 3D structure is needed and here TLS is an add-on or an alternative to conventional forest structure monitoring. However, for the tropics, TLS-based automated segmentation of trees to derive DBH and biomass is not widely operational yet, nor is species richness determination in forest monitoring. Integration of data sources is needed to fully understand forest structural diversity and implications of forest management practices on different forest types.

Agricultural cropland mapping using black-and-white aerial photography, Object-Based Image Analysis and Random Forests / M.F.A. Vogels in International journal of applied Earth observation and geoinformation, vol 54 (February 2017)

Information on historical land cover (change) is crucial for studying and modelling land- and ecosystem degradation. During the past decades major LULC conversions occurred in Africa, Southeast Asia and South America as a consequence of a growing population and economy. Most distinct is the conversion of natural vegetation into cropland. Historical LULC information can be derived from satellite imagery, but these only date back until approximately 1972. Before the emergence of satellite imagery, landscapes were monitored by black-and-white (B&W) aerial photography. This photography is often visually interpreted, which is a very time-consuming approach. This study presents an innovative, semi-automated method to map cropland acreage from B&W photography. Cropland acreage was mapped on two study sites in Ethiopia and in The Netherlands. For this purpose we used Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis (GEOBIA) and a Random Forest classification on a set of variables comprising texture, shape, slope, neighbour and spectral information. Overall mapping accuracies attained are 90% and 96% for the two study areas respectively. This mapping method increases the timeline at which historical cropland expansion can be mapped purely from brightness information in B&W photography up to the 1930s, which is beneficial for regions where historical land-use statistics are mostly absent.

Spatial–temporal variations of water vapor content over Ethiopia: a study using GPS observations and the ECMWF model / Kibrom Ebuy Abraha in GPS solutions, vol 21 n° 1 (January 2017)

The IWV computed from the ECMWF model is integrated from the height of the GPS stations on 60 pressure levels to take both the actual earth surface and the model orography discrepancies into account. First, we compare the IWV estimated from GPS and from the model. The bias varies from site to site, and the correlation coefficients between the two datasets exceed 0.85 at different time scales. The results of this study show that the general ECMWF IWV trend is underestimation over highlands and overestimation over lowlands for wet periods, and overestimation over highlands and underestimation over lowlands for dry periods with very few exceptional stations. Second, we observe the spatial variation of the IWV. High values are obtained in those stations that are located in the north-eastern (Afar depression) sites and the south-western part of the country. This distribution is related to the spatial variability of the climate in Ethiopia. Finally, we study the seasonal cycle and inter-annual variability of IWV for all stations over Ethiopia. The main result is the strong inter-annual variability observed for the dry seasons.
