Landscape Pattern Change and Driving Forces Analysis in Response to Urbanization
Abstract:
In order to analysis the landscape pattern change in Shenyang, we counted the most representative landscape metrics according to the remote sensing images from 2005 to 2010. And then we used the transition matrix of land use to analyze the situation of land use macroscopically by change trend. We analyzed the driving forces of landscape change of study area from 2005 to 2010 using the multivariate statistics method of Principal component analysis (PCA). The results showed that the area of agriculture and green space decreased, and the rural settlement and urban land increased correspondingly. Based on the results of PCA analysis, the landscape changes were mainly driven by the forces of population increasing and economic development.
