摘要
An assessment of the sensitivity to land degradation have been carried out in the Extremadura region, SW Spain, by means of a modelling approach developed in the European Commission funded MEDALUS project (Mediterranean Desertification and Land Use) which identifies such areas on the basis of an index (ESA index) that incorporates data on environmental quality (climate, vegetation, soil) as well as anthropogenic factors (management). Two maps environmental sensitivity to degradation with different legend resolution (4 and 8 classes of sensitivity) have been made.
