Spatial-temporal variation of land use and land cover change in the glacial affected area of the Tianshan Mountains

Hong Wei et al.

Summary: This study investigated the LUCC in the Tianshan Mountains in China over the past 35 years, revealing significant increases in cultivated and built-up lands while decreases in bare land and ice and snow cover. The change was characterized by different stages, with high conversion rates from 2000 to 2015, and landscape change mainly reflected in the increase in patch number and spatial connectivity of different land use types. The study can help establish a dynamic LUCC model to understand the effects of climate change and human activities in glacial affected areas.
