Abstract

The construction of The Three Gorges Reservoir has changed land use structure and reconstituted landscape pattern as imparts significant influence upon the land use structure and ecological environment of Three Gorges Reservoir Regions. The ecological safety of reservoir area is extremely dependent on unique location and special geological conditions of Zhongxian County, the center of Three Gorges Reservoir Regions in Chongqing, and therefore, ecological environment of reservoir area will be changed with the transition of land use in Zhongxian County. Based on land use data in 2000, 2005, 2010, this paper chooses influencing factors from aspects of natural topographic and geomorphological conditions, accessibility to economic development and land use expansion, and then establishes Logistic-CA-Markov (Logistic-Cellular Automata-Markov) and WLC-CA-Markov (Weighted Linear Combination- Cellular Automata- Markov) models so as to simulate spatial pattern of land use of Zhongxian County. The results demonstrate that WLC-CA-Markov model established here has better controllability and higher simulation precision (the kappa coefficient is 0.9295). In the future development of Zhongxian County, the area of grassland and plow land will be reduced continuously, the area of construction land will be expanded obviously mostly because of the added area both near the water and in the north of Zhongxian county, the area of woodland will be increased to a little extent, the area of water area and unused land has gentle change. In the sustainable scenario, the area of grassland will be reduced slightly, the area of water area keeps steady, the area of plow land is reduced but higher than red line of plow land, the area of construction land is increased with significantly smaller increase amplitude than that in the natural development scenario, and the woodland is increased. This scenario coordinates ecological environment with economic development of regional society and turns out to be the best development scenario of land use.
