Abstract

Characteristics of land use/cover change (LUCC), ecosystem service values change and their spatial heterogeneity of three-belt of mountain-oasis-desert in the northern slope of Tianshan Mountains, were analyzed, based on GIS and data of remote sensing and LUCC in 1989 and 2000. And related sustainable development countermeasure was put forward referring to rules of ecosystem services functions change along the typical three-belt ecosystem complex of Northwestern China.
