Inland surface water is often the most accessible freshwater source. As opposed to groundwater, replenished in a comparatively quick cycle, which makes this vital resource—if not overexploited—sustainable. From global perspective, plentiful. Still, depending on region, availability severely limited. Additionally, climate change and human interventions act as large-scale drivers cause dramatic changes established dynamics. Actions have be taken secure sustainable usage. This requires informed decision making based reliable environmental data. Monitoring inland dynamics therefore more important than ever. Remote sensing able delineate number of ways by using optical well active passive microwave sensors. In review, we look at proceedings within discipline reviewing 233 scientific works. We provide an extensive overview used sensors, spatial temporal resolution studies, their thematic foci, distribution. observe that wide array available sensors datasets, along with increasing computing capacities, shaped field over last years. Multiple analysis-ready products are for investigating area dynamics, but so far none offer high resolution.

Land degradation is a global issue receiving much attention currently. In order to objectively reveal the research situation of land degradation, bibliometrix and biblioshiny software packages have been used conduct data mining quantitative analysis on papers in fields during 1990–2019 (data update time was 8 April 2019) Web Science core collection database. The results show that: (1) past 20 years, number has increased. According articles, it divided into four stages: low-production exploration period, developmental sprout expansion promotion high-yield active period. (2) Land-degradation covers 93 countries or regions. top five terms volume are China, United States, Kingdom, Germany, Australia. Kingdom most important for international cooperation field degradation. However, between not very close overall. (3) desertification, remote sensing, soil erosion, high-frequency keywords recent years. (4) hotspots mainly focus directions such as restoration reconstruction sustainable management resources. (5) themes various periods diversified, evolutionary relationship complex. There 15 paths with regard dynamic monitoring environmental governance responses land-use change. Finally, paper concludes that future include process, mechanism, effect application new technologies, methods theory enhancement, models ecological restoration, degraded land, multidisciplinary integrated system research, constructing policy guarantee strengthening resource engineering.

Limited research has been published on land changes and their driving mechanisms in Central Asia, but this area is an important ecologically sensitive area. Supported by Google Earth Engine (GEE), study used Landsat satellite imagery selected the random forest algorithm to perform classification obtain annual cover datasets of Asia from 2001 2017. Based temporal datasets, distributions dynamic trends were summarized, key factors analyzed. The results show that (1) obtained are reliable highly accurate, with overall accuracy 0.90 ± 0.01.

It is increasingly acknowledged that land-use and land-cover change has become a key subject urgently needs to be addressed in the study of global environmental change. In present study, supported by long-time-series data from 1990, 2000, 2017, we used transition matrix, Markov chain model Moran's I derive detailed information spatial patterns temporal variation change; additionally, highlight deforestation/afforestation conversion process during period 1990-2017. The results show total 4708 km2 (i.e., 2.0% area) changed Guangxi 1990 while 418 woodland been lost this region.

Land degradation occurs in all kinds of landscapes over the world, but drivers land vary from region to region. Identifying these at appropriate spatial scale is an essential prerequisite for developing and implementing area-specific policies. In this study, we investigate nine different driving factors three categories: human disturbance, water condition, urbanisation. Using partial order theory Hasse diagram technique, analyse temporal dynamics identify major county level Xilingol League, China. Our findings indicate that: (i) eight out region’s 12 counties, disturbance was dominant driver responsible up 2000, followed by conditions, while urbanisation only four counties; (ii) effects resulting availability decreased after became seven counties. The influence has decreased, which suggests that ecological protection policies were designed control population livestock numbers have worked as intended However, continued new policy measures are required ease effect

As an important part of a terrestrial ecosystem, vegetation plays role in the global carbon-water cycle and energy flow. Based on Global Inventory Monitoring Modeling System (GIMMS) third generation Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI3g), meteorological station data, climate reanalysis land cover this study analyzed dynamics spatiotemporal variations NDVI northern China from 1982 to 2015. The results showed that growth season (NDVIgs) increased significantly at 0.006/10a (p < 0.01) 1982–2015 regional scale. period 2015 was divided into three periods: NDVIgs by 0.026/10a 1982–1990, decreased −0.002/10a > 0.1) 1990–2006, then 0.021/10a during 2006–2015. On pixel scale, increases 1982–2015, 2006–2015 accounted for 74.64%, 85.34%, 48.14%, 68.78% total area, respectively. In general, dominant drivers had gradually switched solar radiation, temperature, precipitation (1982–1990) temperature (1990–2015). For woodland, high coverage grassland, medium low changed radiation precipitation, precipitation. areas controlled significantly, mainly distributed arid, sub-arid, sub-humid areas. plateau zone or high-altitude area while cold temperate zone, radiation.
