Abstract :
The paper presents the dynamic change of wetland landscape pattern from 2002 to 2009 using RS and GIS technology along the lower Yellow River. Results show that: (1) the total area of wetland reduces obviously. (2) Disturbed by human activity, landscape diversity index ascends. (3) The total area of the rice wetland and mud flat decreases while the other area increases.
