In order to understand the soil erosion status and landscape pattern changes in the upper reaches of the Fenhe River, with the help of the RUSLE model, the soil erosion modulus in the upper 12 years of the Fenhe River was calculated, factor gradient analysis and a study on the landscape pattern of soil erosion in the watershed were carried out. The results show that:(1)the average erosion modulus has decreased year by year; the area of soil erosion intensity has shifted from a high level of soil intensity to a low level; the erosion pattern has gradually changed from southeast and northwest, and the pattern of low in the middle has gradually changed from northwest to southeast;(2)in the past 12 years, the areas of grassland and construction land have decreased significantly, and the areas of cultivated land and forest land have increased significantly; cultivated land, forested land and grassland are the main types prone to soil erosion, and the potential amount of soil erosion is severe;(3)the disturbance of human activities to the landscape of the upper Fenhe River weakens with time; the shapes of the landscape patches at each erosion intensity in the region tend to be simplified, the degree of patch reunion is strengthened, the average area of the patches increases, and connectivity of the advantage patches is good, the landscape fragmentation level of each erosion type is low, and the soil erosion situation has been improved. It can be seen that the soil erosion situation in the upper reaches of the Fen River has improved in the past 12 years, the landscape pattern has been optimized, and the quality of the habitat has been improved.
