Abstract

LUCC (land use and land cover change) has become one of the hotspots in global change research. Through literature induction, there are some differents between Chinese and foreign scholars in research direction and technical methods. Chinese scholars focus on researching changing laws, driving forces and ecological effects of LUCC, but foreign scholars pay more attention to its social effects, such as city expansion and distribution of public infrastructure land. Chinese scholars use simple mathematical statistical methods to descripe LUCC, and foreign scholars tend to establish models to analyze and predict its changes, and do well in interdisciplinary research, GIS and remote sensing techniques.
