| With the increasing use of water resources, increasing population, urbanization, identification and conservation of aquatic ecosystems have received much attention. To this end, researchers consider the use of remote sensing techniques and GIS to be appropriate and efficient. In this study, habitat susceptibility of fish to the Choghakhor wetland in the central plateau of Iran was investigated. After integrating layers of effective parameters (chlorophyll a and water surface temperature), the final map was obtained based on fuzzy logic in Arc GIS 10.3. To better evaluate the final map, it was divided into five classes of very low, low, medium, high and very high potential. Areas that are closer to blue have a higher potential for nesting and fish life, and as we get closer to yellow, their potential is diminished. This study demonstrated the ability of the fuzzy method and remote sensing techniques and geographic information systems to distinguish and identify susceptible areas. |
