Abstract
Wetlands around the world face anthropogenic and climate pressures that threaten key ecosystem processes such as the water cycle. Such threats are most acute for non-perennial systems that rely on occasional surface water flows to maintain important ecological functions. This work will focus on the use of remote sensing within a cloud-based computing platform to assess the spatio-temporal evolution of Dayet Aoua through the development of a water transition map between 1984 and 2019. It is also question of detecting and spatializing the main drivers of the various challenges, mainly the land use changes operated. This study revealed that a combination of changes in climatic and land use change in the vicinity of the lake has recently affected the dynamic and the recovery capacity of Dayet Aoua. This study highlights the need to increase public awareness and decision-makers' knowledge concerning the relationship between land use change and wetlands degradation.
