- Abstract:
-
Based on Source-sink principle and Lorentzian curve, this paper analyzed the landscape pattern of nine watersheds in Danjiang River Basin and constructed landscape slope index and location-weighted landscape contrast index. The results showed that the landscape in the watersheds of the northern basin was dominated by soil water loss ‘source’ landscape with bigger landscape slope index and smaller location-weighted landscape contrast index.The risk of soil water loss in those watersheds was very high.The landscape of the upper watersheds in the southern basin was dominated by ‘sink’ landscape with bigger landscape slope index, while ‘source’ landscape was dominated in the down reach. The distributions of ‘source’ and ‘sink’ landscapes were uneven in the watersheds, which made a higher risk of soil water loss.
