Abstract
A specialist on arid land geosystems outlines an experiment on the use of remote sensing imagery to monitor environmental change in the Turkmen SSR's Tedzhen River valley induced by irrigation agriculture and related activities (e.g., a series of dams to regulate the flow of the river). An end result of the project is a map forecasting future changes in the extent of various vegetation cover classes as a function of human modification.
