Climate change impacts the world's ecosystems and alters many regions' land use and land cover (LULC). The Jordan River Basin is an important region for both its natural and cultural heritage, making it essential to understand the effect of climate change on its LULC. This study aims to use Correlation analysis, including GIS techniques, to investigate the impact of climate change on the LULC of a selected area in the Jordan River Basin. The analysis was performed using climate change data as the independent variables and LULC data as the dependent variable. The data was collected over a period from 2017-2021, and GIS data is used to analyze the LULC data and identify changes over time. The results showed that most of the correlations are statistically significant. The study found that changes in the climate variables were associated with changes in LULC, including changes in urbanization and vegetation patterns. The study concludes that climate change impacts the LULC of the Jordan River Basin. The use of Correlation analysis, and GIS techniques is an effective method to study this impact. The results of this study provide important information for decision-makers and local communities to protect the resources of the area. These findings highlight the importance of continuous monitoring and analysis of LULC changes, to better understand the effects of climate change and to mitigate and adapt to these impacts.
