abstract = "The State of Mato Grosso (MT) in Brazil has experienced a rapid
process of land cover conversion in recent decades, which is still
poorly documented. Accurate information on land-use and land-cover
(LULC) changes have crucial importance as they can greatly
contribute to the understanding of impacts on the environment and
the pursuing of a sustainable management of natural resources. The
aim of this paper is to map historical LULC changes in the
southeast part of the MT State (Primavera do Leste region), where
the Cerrado (Brazilian savannas) has been intensively converted
into agricultural land uses (crops/pasture). The methodology
employed consists of a supervised classification approach for LULC
mapping and a post-classification change detection technique for
quantifying the changes. The results indicated an important loss
of natural vegetation in the period from 1985 to 2005, with 45 %
(7075 km2) of the Cerrado vegetation converted to agricultural
land-uses.",
