Abstract

The spatial diversity of the ground covers in the National Park of Doñana has been studied using the information of a Landsat MSS image recorded the year 1989. Eight ground covers were considered: coastal dunes, pine forests, eucalyptus forests, flooded marshes, non flooded marshes, flooded marshes with Phragmites sp., rice fields and brushwoods. A supervised classification was performed and the spatial diversity was calculated in base to the number of ground cover classes in a window of 3 x 3 pixels around each pixel of the study area.
