Open publisher page 5 citations

Abstract

The authors monitored dynamic changes of China's grassland by using TM datum based RS GIS technology. The results show that the total grassland area in China was increasing from 1995 to 2000 with the increasing of high and middle cover grassland area, nevertheless, the area of low cover grassland was to some extent decreasing. Moreover, there is obvious difference in this aspect between north China and south China: the grassland area is decreasing remarkably in north China, which will exert harmful influence on the ecological environment of north China.
