The purpose of this document is to look at various forms of land use, identifying the patterns of the land use, and how these uses affect aquatic and terrestrial natural environments. The geographic focus of this document is a ten-county area within the Little Tennessee and French Broad river basins in the southern Appalachian states.

Deforestation, Reforestation and Forest Fragmentation on the Upper Coastal Plain of South Carolina and Georgia Resource Identifier: http://www.bioone.org/bioone/?request=get-abstract&issn;=0003-0031&volume;=142&issue;=02&page;=0213 Cataloging Node: Southern Appalachian Information Node Creator: J. E. Pinder, III,a T. E. Rea,a and D. E. Funschb Subject: deforestation,erosion, soil erosion, erosion features Description: This is an abstract of a study using Landsat Multispectral Scanner data for a 100-km by 100-km section of the Upper Coastal Plain of South Carolina and Georgia. There was a discrepancy is due to methodological differences between USFS procedures, which measure forests as product resources, and the Landsat data, which measure forests as habitat area.
