- Abstract:
-
Spatially-explicit modelling (SEM) of land use under the support of cellular automata (CA) is capable of displaying the results with spatial visualization, recovering the missing materials, and inferring the future tendency and feasible scenarios of geographical system, thus to reveal the spatiotemporal process and change rules of land use. With the Logistic regression based on CA model, followed by a landscape pattern analysis, the land use in main land of Shanghai Municipality was simulated. The results demonstrate that the area of building land use type in Shanghai is increasing, that of vegetation is decreasing, and that of water is almost maintaining its state since 1992. Moreover, landscape metrics revealing land use change process and tendency are observed relating with the cell size used, that is, spatially-explicit modelling and landscape metrics is remarkablely sensitive to the cell size.
