According to the MODIS NDVI data from 2000 to 2009,TM,ETM data from 2000 to 2007,SRTM DEM data and Geological map in this study area,the maps of stratum,vegetation cover,DEM,change of NDVI-Max and slope were generated by interpretation and processing.We can draw a conclusion after analyzing the relationship each map that the major stratum in this nature reserve is the Middle—Upper Proterozoic and Quaternary.The vegetation cover on Middle—Upper Proterozoic showed a better trend than that is on Quaternary from 2000 to 2009.Most of the Middle—Upper Proterozoic is on the southern slope of the reserve,which has the more complex topography,wider range of elevation,and steeper slope.Compared with the Middle—Upper Proterozoic,the Quaternary is on the northern slope,which has the opposite kind of topography,elevation and slope to the southern slope.Due to the topography condition,although the southern slope has the better climate condition,the northern slope is more suitable to survive for human beings.
