Characterising three decades of evolution of forest spatial pattern in a major coal-energy province in northern China using annual Landsat time series

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2021
The analysis of change processes in relation to spatial patterns is gaining increasing attention in landscape ecology. Forest spatial pattern change is a critical process in landscape dynamics, and has a significant impact on the biodiversity, habitat ...

Scale relationship between landscape pattern and water quality in different pollution source areas: A case study of the Fuxian Lake watershed, China

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Understanding the scale relationship between landscape pattern and water quality is of great significance for improving water pollution and guiding the rational planning of land use in watersheds. At present, most existing studies take the watershed as a

Spatial Relationship between Land Use Patterns and Ecosystem Services Value—Case Study of Nanjing

Land, 2022
The degree of land use reflects the progress of social and economic development; however, it also has a direct impact on land resources. Maximizing the ecosystem services of land resources in a limited space is a key issue in China’s rapid urbanization ...

A distance dependent contagion function for vector-based data [PDF]

, 2011
Landscape pattern is of primary interest to landscape ecologists and landscape metrics are used to quantify landscape pattern. Metrics are commonly defined and calculated on raster-based land cover maps.

Impacts of land use and landscape pattern on water quality at multiple spatial scales in a subtropical large river

, 2022
The coupling between land use/landscape pattern and water quality in river systems varies across different spatial and temporal scales. It is important to understand the association between water quality and land use/landscape pattern across different ...

Analysis of the heterogeneity of urban expansion landscape patterns and driving factors based on a combined Multi-Order Adjacency Index and Geodetector model

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Under conditions of rapid urbanization, quantitative measurement of the expansion characteristics of urban landscapes and evaluation of their spatial and temporal differentiation properties is an important scientific problem. The Multi-order Adjacency Index (MAI) is an effective indicator of the quantitative characteristics of urban landscape expansion;

Combining catastrophe technique and regression analysis to deduce leading landscape patterns for regional flood vulnerability: A case study of Nanjing, China

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Urbanization leads to changes in land use, and the expansion of impervious surfaces leads to an increase in flood vulnerability. Predicting and analyzing these landscape pattern changes are important in the early stages of urban planning.
