Welcome to LUGC research group at IGSNRR, CAS!


ABOUT US


The Land use and global change remote sensing (LUGC) research group in the Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research (IGSNRR), Chinese academy of Sciences (CAS), aims to investigate scientific questions in global change, especially land use changes, by using remote sensing approaches.






 
  • FOCUS I: Land Cover and Land Use Change

    Land use and land cover change monitoring based on remote sensing big data approach, global or regional telecoupling of typical land cover changes, and consequences of land use changes

  • FOCUS II: Global Change Remote Sensing

    Uncertainty in applications of remote sensing data and models on ecological issues, for example, the uncertainty of land surface phenology simulation based on remote sensing, uncertainty of GPP models in drought conditions

  • Models and Algorithms

    Models and novel algorithms developed by this group

  • Available Datasets

Given the considerable influences of urbanization on near-surface air temperature (T a ) and surface skin temperature (T s ) at local and regional scales, we investigated the biogeophysical effects of urbanization on T a and T s in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region of China, a typical rapidly urbanizing area, using the weather research and forecasting model (WRF). Two experiments were conduct...

Open surface water bodies play an important role in agricultural and industrial production, and are susceptible to climate change and human activities. Remote sensing data has been increasingly used to map open surface water bodies at local, regional, and global scales. Many water indices have been proposed to identify surface water bodies; however, the differences in performances of these water...

In order to examine the advantages and disadvantages of existing forest mapping products, we conducted a thorough accuracy assessment on the eight recent, medium resolution (30–50 m) products by using the LP in 2010 as the region of interest. These mapping products include Landsat and/or PALSAR images (including the forest products from GlobeLand30, FROM-GLC, Hansen, ChinaCover, NLCD-China, ...
