Changes of Vegetation Distribution in the East Dongting Lake After the Operation of the Three Gorges Dam, China

Changes of Vegetation Distribution in the East Dongting Lake After the Operation of the Three Gorges Dam, China

Water regime is regarded as the primary factor influencing the vegetation distribution in natural wetland ecosystems. However, the effect of water regime change induced by large-scale hydraulic engineering on vegetation distribution is still unclear. In this study, multi-temporal TM/ETM+/OLI images...
