Dynamic Changes, Spatiotemporal Differences, and Ecological Effects of Impervious Surfaces in the Yellow River Basin, 1986–2020

Abstract: Impervious surfaces (IS) are one of the most important components of the earth’s surface, and understanding how IS have expanded is vital. However, few studies on IS or urbanization have focused on the cradle of the Chinese nation—the Yellow River Basin (YRB). In this study, the Random Forest and Temporal Consistency Check methods were employed to generate long-term maps of IS in the YRB based on Landsat imagery. To explore the dynamics and differences in IS, we developed a spatiotemporal analysis and put forw… Show more

“…Impervious surfaces mainly refer to artificial surfaces such as cement and asphalt pavements, roofs and other hardened surfaces 1 . The rapid expansion of impervious surfaces has been shown to bring substantial impact to urban heat island effect and surface runoff 2 . Densification of impervious surfaces can seriously lead to the decrease of infiltration rates and the increase of evaporation rates and surface runoff 3 .…”

“…Many scholars quantitatively analyze the characteristics of impervious surface changes using methods such as the ISA ratio, area growth amount and growth rate, urban expansion intensity index, etc. [ [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] ]. For example, Jian et al [ 25 ] quantified the dynamic changes of impervious surfaces in Beijing by calculating the percentage of total ISA in 2001 and 2009.…”

“…Traditional research methodologies typically take into account a limited number of features present in remote sensing images, thereby failing to comprehensively capture the distinctions between IS and other land types. There are studies that attempt to leverage a diverse set of features in the process of IS identification, but they often overlook the significance of feature selection [25,26], leading to feature redundancy. In this research, it is hypothesized that the classification accuracy may be influenced by both the category and the number of combined features, and distinct categories of features might be optimally suited to varying machine learning algorithms.…”
