ASSESSMENT OF WATER SURFACE AND SHORELINE VEGETATION DYNAMICS OF THE CHARVAK RESERVOIR USING LANDSAT DATA
his study assesses water surface area and shoreline vegetation dynamics of the Charvak Reservoir in 2020–2025 using Landsat
8/9 imagery. MNDWI results show that the water area varied from 1922.1–2588.8 ha in April to 3592.2–3912.8 ha in July, with
the maximum seasonal difference reaching 1762.6 ha. NDVI maps indicate increased shoreline vegetation activity in July.
