In many countries, the increasing population drives the spatiotemporal land use and land cover change (LULCC) at a higher rate, causing heterogeneous landscape. Hence, the LULCC is a dynamic and frequent process causing fragmented land cover, and therefore, extensive research on LULCC pattern is nec...
