Abstract EN

This study focused on assessing and analyzing tree ground coverage in El Fasher locality - North Darfur State - Sudan, by conducting a set of ground measurements using field survey methods and remote sensing techniques.

In order to know the size and nature of the spatial and temporal distribution of this cover, where the study found the presence of some trees that have maintained a dense presence in the Al-Fasher locality from the 1960s until the year 2019, such as Acacia radiana, Al Haraz Fedherbiaalbida, Balanitesaegyptiaca, Sidr Ziziphusspina-christi, Al Sarh adabafarin.

Leptadeniapyrotechnica bushes, sewn, Some trees that were present in high density during the sixties, seventies and eighties, such as the frankincense trees Penuduculata, Adansonia digitata, Negeissus leiocarpus, Acacia Arabica, Sycamore Ficus spp., Terminaliabrownii dye, the study also tried to identify indications and conclude of the change that occurred in it.

The study, through discussion and analysis, indicated the presence of some indicators of tree cover deterioration and touched upon its causes, which were drought, logging, urban expansion and some other causes.

The study also recommended some recommendations that would help find solutions to the problems of tree exploitation and stop the deterioration of tree covers in the study area.

Among the most important of them are working to build a database for tree cover, encouraging research institutions in the field of the environment, in addition to spreading environmental culture among the population and activating laws to protect it.
