New Application of Location Entropy Model in Analyzing Land Use Change
以辽宁省为例，研究了2005至2010年土地利用变化的方向、速度和趋势，发现不同地类变化特征各异，模型有助于全面解释时空特征。
Taking Liaoning Province as an example,we explored the change direction,velocity and tendency of land use from 2005 to 2010.Results indicated,besides cultivated land,change direction of other land uses in all the prefecture cities were coincident with those of the whole Province.Contrasting to the increase or decrease of land use in the whole Province,change velocity of arable land and pastureland showed higher,lower or equal.However,only two situations(higher or lower) lied in the other 4 land uses.The distribution of garden land,forestland and grassland in every prefecture city showed the tendency of equilibrium,and yet,the allocation of cultivated land,construction land and other uses land tended to be more concentrated.We concluded that applying the model of direction,velocity and tendency for land use change can be liable to expound the space-time characters of land use change in the round,and be deserved to popularize.
