近30年来喜马拉雅山脉西段纳木那尼峰地区冰川变化的遥感监测研究

本文从1976,1990,1999的Landsat及2003年ASTER系列数字遥感影像上提取了喜马拉雅山脉西段纳木那尼峰地区的4期冰川空间分布数据,在Arc/Info中综合各期数据,建立研究区1976—2003年冰川变化图谱,定量分析了纳木那尼峰地区冰川的空间变化。图谱这种数据集成的方法明显优于直接将各期影像分类结果进行比较的传统研究方法。研究结果表明,纳木那尼峰地区的冰川以广泛退缩为主,但北部也有少量前进冰川存在。自1976年到2003年,冰川面积从84.41km2减少到77.29km2,各时段分别以平均0.17km/a,0.19km/a和0.77km/a的速度在退缩,冰川退缩明显加速。冰川退缩面积占研究区总面积的8.4%,明显比高亚洲冰川平均退缩比例（7%）大,表明西喜马拉雅山脉的冰川退缩比较严重。     

Variations in the Ice Phenology and Water Level of Ayakekumu Lake,Tibetan Plateau,Derived from MODIS and Satellite Altimetry Data

The alpine lakes on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) are highly sensitive to variations in climate changes, and the lake ice phenology and water level are considered to be direct indicators of regional climate variability. In this study, we first used 14 years of moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer snow cover products to analyse the freeze dates, ablation dates, and ice coverage durations. The lake level changes during 2002–2015 were estimated, derived from satellite altimetry and Hydroweb data. Unexpectedly, the freeze dates of lake ice greatly advanced, and the ablation dates were markedly delayed. The complete freezing duration lengthened by approximately 77 days. As a result of the warm-wet climate in the northern TP, the lake area expanded from 770 to 995 km² during 2002–2015, and the water levels rose by 4.2 m in total, at a rate of 0.3 m/year. The progressive expansion of Ayakekumu Lake profoundly affected the ice phenology. Larger water volume with larger thermal capacity likely led to the delaying of ablation dates, with the freezing point depression caused by decreasing salinity. Some new narrow and shallow bays located in southern and eastern Ayakekumu Lake were conducive to early freezing of ice. Additionally, the changes in air temperature, precipitation, potential evaporation, and sunshine duration may be related to the prolonged ice cover duration since 2002. In sum, accurate measurements of lake ice and water levels are critical for understanding the water resource balance and hydrologic cycle in arid or semi-arid regions of China.     

近40年老哈河流域土地利用变化监测与分析

利用决策树和支持向量机分类方法,基于多期Landsat MSS,TM and ETM+遥感图像和其他辅助数据,对1970s以来近40年半干旱的老哈河流域土地利用变化(land use and land cover change,LUCC)进行动态监测,并利用GIS方法对LUCC进行了定量分析和空间分布制图.结果显示,利用支持向量机分类方法对该地区1976年、1989年、1999年和2007年土地覆盖类型分类可达到较满意的效果;近40年老哈河流域土地利用变化显著,水体和草地减少,城乡用地持续扩张,耕地大幅增加,林地和未利用地大幅度波动、总体减少.LUCC主要发生在林地、草地和耕地之间,表明农、林、牧用地之间转换显著,且在各个时期的空间分布差别较大.从变化强度来看,土地利用的年综合变化率最大值渐趋增大,年均土地动态度在空间分布上差异很大,另外在各研究期赤峰市区周边动态度都很大,反映了赤峰市持续性的城市化进程.     

Satellite based mapping and morphogenetic analysis of the landforms in the tertiary fold belts of parts of Tripura,India

In the present study, satellite-based mapping and morphogenetic analysis of eastern part of Tripura has been attempted. Landforms are delineated based on conjugate analysis of satellite-imaged and satellite-derived digital elevation data. Further, landforms were classified based on hierarchical three-tier classification system where genesis is used as a criteria to classify the landforms in the first level followed by nature of their dissection and the geometric forms of the landform in second and third level, respectively. During the analysis, it has been observed that most of the landforms are structural in origin and their orientations are guided by the geological lineaments although the variations in the dissection pattern of the landforms are related to the changes in the underlying lithology. The implementation of quantitative analysis using hypsometric integral and ruggedness index of geomorphic parameters indicates that the landforms are immature but have been evolving towards maturity.

Mapping the Extent of Agroforestry Area in Different Altitudes of Tehri District,North Western Himalaya,India Through GIS and Remote Sensing Data

Assessment of area under agroforestry in Tehri district of North Western Himalaya, Uttarakhand, India has been done using GIS and remote sensing technology. The study district characterized by hilly terrain with varying elevations from 288 m to more than 2800 m and generally gentle slopes, valleys, flat land covers and agricultural terraces. High-resolution satellite imageries (spatial resolution 5.8 m) were used in this study for land uses and land covers classification. According to unsupervised classification, highest area was found under forest class (65.22%) followed by cropland (20.41%). Considerable area was also found under snow cover (9.45%) in the district. Area under agroforestry was estimated to be 5572.26 ha (1.53%) by this method, whereas it was estimated to be 7029.06 ha (1.93%) by supervised classification. Estimated cropland area comes out to be about 20.0%. An accuracy of 86.5% was found in this classification for agroforestry class. Highest area under agroforestry of 3707.36 ha was obtained in 1200–2000 m elevations followed by 2231.26 ha in 288–1200 m elevations. Negligible area was found on high elevation zones of more than 2800 m. The major agroforestry systems of dominated by Grewia oppositifolia (Bhimal), Celtis australis (Kharik) and Quercus leucotrichophora (Banj) were identified and mapped and remaining systems were grouped as others class. Estimated area under G. oppositifolia, C. australis and Q. leucotrichophora based systems come out to be 2330.82, 1456.80 and 1129.10 ha, respectively. These systems are multiple usufructs are food, fuelwood, fodder, fiber and small timber. It has been observed from the accuracy assessment that the estimates of area under agroforestry obtained under this study are reliable.
