- Abstract:
-
Land use and land cover change was one of the main reasons and core subjects of the global environmental change. Based on the domestic and foreign LUCC research results, we elaborated the latest LUCC research progress in information acquisition, data processing, driving force analysis and model development. The significance of the LUCC study to environmental protection and regional sustainable development in arid regions was analyzed. Then, we introduced the new tendency of LUCC research and pointed out some problems in such process, for instance, excessively relying on 3S technology in the process of information acquisition, the neglecting union between tradition information acquisition ways and the new technological means. Moreover, the imperfect function of LUCC model, the deficiency in comprehensive and scientific theory to instruct arid area land to realize the sustainable etc., also were indicated in this research. We think that theory exploration will be the key to the research of LUCC in the future because of its guidance to the direction of LUCC study.
