Analysis of Spatial-temporal Change and Driving Forces of Vegetation in Loess Plateau Under Background of Ecological Engineering
[Objective] The spatial and temporal evolution of vegetation on the Loess Plateau from 1990 to 2015 was studied
and the driving forces of vegetation change in this region were analyzed from the aspects of climate change and human activities in order to provide a theoretical basis for formulating policies related to ecological environmental protection and regional sustainable development.[Methods] Based on GIMMS NDVI and MODIS NDVI
long-term sequence NDVI datasets were established. During the period of 1990-2015
the linear trend analysis
multiple linear regression and improved human residuals were used to analyze the spatial and temporal variation of vegetation with NDVI and land use data in the Loess Plateau. The characteristics and their influencing factors were quantitatively analyzed.[Result] ① Between 1990 and 2015
the NDVI of the Loess Plateau showed an upward trend
and the trend of change was more clearly divided into two periods
of which the rate of NDVI increased faster after 2000. ② After 2000
the NDVI of the Loess Plateau increased rapidly
and the rising area reached 91.90% of the total area
of which the NDVI significantly increased area ratio was 65.78%. ③ The overall area of vegetation in the Loess Plateau increased
and it mainly came from the transfer of cultivated land. ④ The vegetation restoration area promoted by human activities accounted for 21.74% of the total area
mainly distributed in the eastern and northern parts of Inner Mongolia
southern area of Gansu and Ningxia Region
as well as the central areas of Shaanxi and Shanxi Province.[Conclusion] With the implementation of the policy of returning farmland to forest and grass land
the vegetation area in the Loess Plateau continued to increase
and the vegetation growth continued to improve. The main reason for the restoration of vegetation on the Loess Plateau was the combination of climate and humans
and the degree of human influence was relatively larger.
