Abstract
This research focused on monitoring the spatial and temporal dynamics of halophyte vegetation in Sebkhat Ezzemoul (6,765 ha) and Chott Tinsilt (2,154 ha), which are part of the wetland system in the high plateaus of Constantine, northeastern Algeria. Conducted within a semi-arid climate, the study employed geomatics tools to analyze changes over time. A 30-year diachronic study (1987–2017) was carried out using LANDSAT satellite imagery from the years 1987, 2000, and 2017. The findings indicate that variations in halophyte species are primarily influenced by key environmental factors, including agricultural practices and overgrazing.
