The land use and land cover changes have been issues for better understanding human-land relations and sustainable development of regional land sources. This paper was to analyze the land use and land cover changes in new land around Bohai bay with crisp ecosystem and fast development during last 20 years with RS and GIS taking Guangrao county as a case study. In this study, two Landsat TM images...
Land use and land cover change (LUCC) is an important factor of global environmental change. LUCC model is the focus of land change research. LUCC of the study area in the next 13 years is predicted based on CLUE-S model. Two prediction scenarios were used which are with or without considering “Liaoning Coastal Economy Development Plan”. The results showed that the construction land increased dramatically...
This study aims at revealing how land use and land cover changed in Nanjing city from 1979 to 2005. Combining the integrated technology of ecological quantity analytical method with GIS technology, based on the MSS images in 1979, TM images in 1988 and ETM+ images in 2005, the changes of land use/cover and landscape pattern were analyzed in study area from 1979 to 2005.The results showed that the...
Urban land-use patterns change has become one of hot topics on land use/ land cover change (LUCC) studies in the worldwide area. As urban land change is influenced by both topography and human behavior driving factors, it is a complex dynamic and spatio-temporal progress. To simulate and analyze urban land use patterns and its driving factors, the logistic regression model is implemented as the statistical...
With the construction of the Three Gorges Project, the type of land use/land cover in Three Gorges Reservoir Region changed much, at the same time, the environment of the same region changed greatly, too. There is some relationship between the land use/land cover changes and environment changes, which is the reason of the paper. Firstly, the analysis of the TM remote sensing images in 1995 and 2008...
Eastern coastal area along Guangdong province is one of the economically developed regions in China which has experienced a lot of changes in its land-use patterns. It has become necessary to detect the changes happened in this region as this may help determining the level of stress that the coastal zone is facing and improving the management of the coastal resource. Based on the land use data acquired...
Anthropogenic activity is a crucial factor in urban wetland evolution and it is significant to explore the relationship between human activities and urban wetland landscape in order to protect urban wetland. In this paper, Nanhu lake, located in Wuhan city was chosen for analysis of wetland loss and human activities factors by fractal theory. Aided by remote sensing and GIS technology, the fractal...
