ABSTRACT:Vegetation plays a leading role in ecosystems. Plant communities are the main components of ecosystems. Green plants in ecosystems are the primary producers, and they provide the living organic matter for the survival of other organisms. The dynamics of most landscapes are driven by both natural processes and human activities. In this study, the growing season GIMMS NDVI3g and climatic data were used to analyse the vegetation trends and drivers in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region from 1982 to 2013. Result shows that, the vegetation in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region shows overall restoration and partial degradation trend. The significant restoration region accounts for 61.5% of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, while the significant degradation region accounts for 2.1%. The dominant climatic factor for time series NDVI were analyzed using the multi-linear regression model. Vegetation growth in 17.9% of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region is dominated by temperature, 35.5% is dominated by precipitation, and 11.68% is dominated by solar radiance. Human activities play important role for vegetation restoration in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region, where the large scale forest restoration programs are the main human activities, such as the three-north shelterbelt construction project, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei sandstorm source control project and grain for green projects.
ABSTRACT:Due to the improvement of satellite radiometric resolution and the color difference for multi-temporal satellite remote sensing images and the large amount of satellite image data, how to complete the mosaic and uniform color process of satellite images is always an important problem in image processing. First of all using the bundle uniform color method and least squares mosaic method of GXL and the dodging function, the uniform transition of color and brightness can be realized in large area and multi-temporal satellite images. Secondly, using Color Mapping software to color mosaic images of 16bit to mosaic images of 8bit based on uniform color method with low resolution reference images. At last, qualitative and quantitative analytical methods are used respectively to analyse and evaluate satellite image after mosaic and uniformity coloring. The test reflects the correlation of mosaic images before and after coloring is higher than 95% and image information entropy increases, texture features are enhanced which have been proved by calculation of quantitative indexes such as correlation coefficient and information entropy. Satellite image mosaic and color processing in large area has been well implemented.
