Analysis of Landscape Spatial Pattern Changes Using Remote Sensing in Jiuzhaigou Valley, Northwestern Sichuan Province, China


World Heritage Site: Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest Area

Publication Year: 2010

Publication Type: Conference paper

Publication Identifier: WHE595E10E11F

Summary

Jiuzhaigou Valley exhibits significant landscape fragmentation, uneven patch distribution, and low diversity indices, which are primary contributors to biodiversity loss. These findings were derived from a remote sensing and GIS-based analysis employing dynamic landscape metrics such as patch size, largest patch index, and shape index. The study highlights the importance of monitoring structural changes in protected areas using advanced spatial analysis techniques.
