Land cover change is one of the most important and easily detectable indicator for various changes happened on the Earth's surface, and is also closely related to global climate, biodiversity, food and fiber demand, and other critical environmental and ecosystem services. Supported by the Carbon Special Program and the Ecological Decade Program, the spatial patterns of land cover changes and its driving...
The study of land use/cover change helps to explain the inner mechanism of interaction of human-earth system. Based on the classification of the remote sensing data in 1978, 1987, 2000 and 2005, using indices representing spatial pattern characteristics of land use/cover such as gravity center migration, diversity index, dominance index, evenness index and fragmentation index, spatial pattern dynamics...
In this study, the decision tree (DT) classification technique was used to detect the land use changes based on the spectral characteristics of the samples and the spatial patterns of the six land use classes for two landsat images for the Shalamulun river catchment of China acquired in 1987 and 2001. And post-classification change detection technique was applied to map land cover changes. For validating...
