Projection of the Spatially Explicit Land Use/Cover Changes in China, 2010–2100

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2013
Land use/cover change (LUCC) is an important part of the global environmental change. This study predicted the future structure of land use/cover on the basis of the Global Change Assessment Model (GCAM) and an econometric model with the socioeconomic ...

China’s Land Cover Fraction Change during 2001–2015 Based on Remote Sensed Data Fusion between MCD12 and CCI-LC

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
New types of remote sensed land cover datasets provide key evidence for understanding global environmental change. However, low data consistency makes understanding the changes unclear. China has become a hot spot of land cover change in the world due to
