Title

A study of snow cover change and its impact on local livelihood in Uttarkashi district: An Analytical Approach

Abstract

Snow and ice cover are extremely important in the Himalayan region. It not only monitors the region's climatic conditions, but it also regulates the local people's day-to-day livelihood structure. Snow and glaciers are two of the most vulnerable landcovers on the earth’s surface. As a result, it is critical to examine, monitor, and map these land covers on a regular basis. Thus, in the present study an effort has been made to study the snow cover change of Uttarkashi district between 2000 and 2021 using Landsat 5 and Landsat 8 images respectively using techniques like band rationing. Band rationing is the technique of ratioing two bands to define a particular landcover. In band ratioing the band with maximum absorption and maximum reflectance are taken and an average of both are found out, moreover in the present work the output is converted to polygon and an overlay analysis was done to find out the change of snow-covered area. Besides this in this paper an effort was also done to find out the impact of snow cover change on local livelihood structure

Key Words

- Snow cover, Local livelihood, NDSI, Overlay analysis.
