Therefore, related researches are required to explore the spatial-temporal law of LUCC in the Loess Plateau, which can contribute more to the study of regional eco-environment change process and support the research of ecological restoration. This paper reviewed the international studies of LUCC in the Loess Plateau. The research progress of classification system, classification technology of remote sensing images, pattern-process change analysis and driving forces of LUCC were illustrated. Then corresponding discussions about these questions were performed. We think that the construction of unique classification system, the fusion of geographic observation and remote sensing and the development of comprehensive model will be hot topics of LUCC in the Loess Plateau in the future.Read More
