Researching dynamic variation of vegetation coverage has positive significance for vegetation restoration and ecological reconstruction. Landsat TM/ETM+ remote sensing data of the 2002, 2005, 2007, 2009 and 2011 was analyzed by ENVI and GIS technology, divided the vegetation coverage into 6 grades based on dimidiate pixel model, concluded the variation of ecological environment based on transfer matrix method, taked the Daliuta Mine as a case. The results indicated that average vegetation coverage in Daliuta Mine has increased integrally, and vegetation coverage changed from low, medium low and medium to medium and medium high, the vegetation coverage has somewhat. The dynamic monitoring of vegetation coverage can effectively reflect the variation of ecological environment in Daliuta Mine. This study provided a theoretical basis for the ecological reconstruction and sustainable development of Daliuta Mine.

Climate change has profoundly affected global ecological security. The most vulnerable region on Earth is the high-latitude Arctic. Identifying the changes in vegetation coverage and glaciers in high-latitude Arctic coastal regions is important for understanding the process and impact of global climate change. Ny-Ålesund, the northern-most human settlement, is typical of these coastal regions and was used as a study site. Vegetation and glacier changes over the past 35 years were studied using time series remote sensing data from Landsat 5/7/8 acquired in 1985, 1989, 2000, 2011, 2015 and 2019. Site survey data in 2019, a digital elevation model from 2009 and meteorological data observed from 1985 to 2019 were also used. The vegetation in the Ny-Ålesund coastal zone showed a trend of declining and then increasing, with a breaking point in 2000. However, the area of vegetation with coverage greater than 30% increased over the whole study period, and the wetland moss area also increased, which may be caused by the accelerated melting of glaciers. Human activities were responsible for the decline in vegetation cover around Ny-Ålesund owing to the construction of the town and airport. Even in areas with vegetation coverage of only 13%, there were at least five species of high-latitude plants. The melting rate of five major glaciers in the study area accelerated, and approximately 82% of the reduction in glacier area occurred after 2000. The elevation of the lowest boundary of the five glaciers increased by 50–70 m. The increase in precipitation and the average annual temperature after 2000 explains the changes in both vegetation coverage and glaciers in the study period.


Formulation of the problem. National Natural Parks (NNP) – protected areas where anthropogenic and natural landscapes are combined in the same territory. In addition, the main functions of such objects are significantly competitive, which requires monitoring of changes in existing landscapes. It is necessary to define the local objects which, being the most sensitive, at the same time have small plasticity, therefore, are capable to react quickly and adequately to any changes. That is what we call indicative. Analysis of recent research and publications. Many researchers of the USA, Great Britain, Germany, Australia conduct landscape monitoring using remote sensing data and GIS technologies. For example, D. Keith, S. Rodoreda, L. Holman, R. Noss, U. Walz, and others. The National Inventory of Landscapes in Sweden studies development of modern landscape monitoring in countries of Europe. Landscape Monitoring of Terrestrial Ecosystems, studied by researches R. Kennedy, J. Jons, K. Jones and others allow using data of satellite for selection of plant contours using Gis-technology. Landscape monitoring of the territory of NNP «Slobozhanskiy» has never been carried out. The aim of the study is to choose satellite images, taking into account the area of the study, the choice of optimal methods of their processing for the compilation of a database of landscape structure facies for landscape monitoring based on long-term observations on the ground, comparing their results with geodata. We have determined wetlands, as landscape indicators. Presentation of the main material of the study. Comprehensive analysis of remote sensing data carried out by the authors, allowed us to make sure that vegetation cover is the most indicative, except for the contours of wetlands, which are clearly identified and easily compared in multi-spectral images. It is reliably determined by the characteristic features combine with the corresponding spectral ranges and the image structure. In addition, changes in vegetation allows you to visually determine changes in landscape groupings and the speed of these changes. Summary. The indicative features of landscape monitoring are wetlands, and there are two direct indicators: the contours of wetlands and the change in the aspect of vegetation. The monitoring method is a multispectral analysis of images obtained by processing combinations of spectral channels, which showed the ability to determine the changes in the selection, taking into account reflectivity of the surface. Limitations of the method are the following: there is no established method of meticulous analysis of changes in the structure of vegetation, which is observed visually, but is not reflected instrumentally; inability to take into account random features of the territory conditions and space scanning at a certain point, which is interesting for the study. Finally, the types of monitoring objects, indicative signs of changes and ways to track them according to high-precision and generally available satellite information are determined.

This paper has been developed to capture the land coverage change in Gazipur Sadar Upazila with the help of remote sensing data of 44 years from 1973 to 2017. After acquiring the study area image of 1973, 1991, 2006 and 2017 supervised classification method has been used to get the accurate information from the satellite image and the whole outcome has been transformed into measurable unit (sq km) and graphs. The accuracy of land coverage was ranged from 85% to 89%. The outcome says that the acceleration of economic growth and pressure of huge population took a heavy toll on the vegetation coverage which decreased -199.7%. People are destroying vegetation coverage for building up settlements and infrastructure. In the year 2017, the map shows that the built-up area increased 312.9% for industry, settlement and agricultural purpose. Moreover agricultural land also drops down from 42% to 32%.  The rapid rate of decreasing vegetation coverage and small amount of existing vegetation coverage only 57 sq km (in 2017) is a red alert for the region. The Sal forest and other special flora species of that region is valuable resource for environment. This paper shed light on the fact that it is urgent to protect vegetation coverage so it will help the authority to make good policies and use other techniques to save vegetation coverage.

Based on the remote-sensing data and ground data, this study is conducted on the ecosystem function of Yiwulvshan National Nature Scenic Area (hereinafter as “Yiwulvshan Scenic Area”) from 2000 to 2010 with the GIS (geographic information system) and RS (remote sensing) technology, so as to provide reference for better environmental protection of the scenic area. It is shown from the results that there is no obvious change of land use in Yiwulvshan Scenic Area; while the capacity for soil and water conservation is slightly improved mainly due to increase of vegetation coverage; the vegetation net primary productivity declines somewhat about 5.27% in past 10 years; and biodiversity is slightly increased. As a whole, the ecosystem function of Yiwulvshan Scenic Area basically kept stable in the past 10 years, which indicated that the existing regulations can effectively protect the ecological function of the Scenic Area.

Some lakes in China have undergone serious eutrophication, with cyanobacterial blooms occurring frequently. Dynamic monitoring of cyanobacterial blooms is important. At present, the traditional lake-survey-based cyanobacterial bloom monitoring is spatiotemporally limited and requires considerable human and material resources. Although satellite remote sensing can rapidly monitor large-scale cyanobacterial blooms, clouds and other factors often mean that effective images cannot be obtained. It is also difficult to use this method to dynamically monitor and manage aquatic environments and provide early warnings of cyanobacterial blooms in lakes and reservoirs. In contrast, ground-based remote sensing can operate under cloud cover and thus act as a new technical method to dynamically monitor cyanobacterial blooms. In this study, ground-based remote-sensing technology was applied to multitemporal, multidirectional, and multiscene monitoring of cyanobacterial blooms in Dianchi Lake via an area array multispectral camera mounted on a rotatable cloud platform at a fixed station. Results indicate that ground-based imaging remote sensing can accurately reflect the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of cyanobacterial blooms and provide timely and accurate data for salvage treatment and early warnings. Thus, ground-based multispectral remote-sensing data can operationalize the dynamic monitoring of cyanobacterial blooms. The methods and results from this study can provide references for monitoring such blooms in other lakes.
