Assessing the Ecological Environment around the Yellow River Delta Area by RS and GIS
As one of the most active regions with changing land and sea boundaries, the Yellow River Delta has a rapid and complicated evolution of its ecological environment. So it is very important to evaluate the ecological environment in the Yellow River Delta. In this paper, Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are used to build the factors index system for ecological environment synthetic evaluation. The ecological environment synthetic evaluation (EESE) model was applied to analyze the conditions and spatial differences of the ecological environment in the Yellow River Delta. The research results have shown that dramatic spatial differences of ecological environmental conditions occurred in the Yellow River Delta. By comparing the status of 1986, 1996, and 2001, the trends in ecological environmental quality seem to have been better and more stable in the inland study area, but poorer along the coastal area because of the inappropriate land use, less water from the Yellow River and increasing industrial activity along shore.
