Abstract

As an important part of Beijing’s suburbs, the mountainous area of Beijing has both the characteristics of metropolitan suburbs and the features of mountains, and so its land use pattern is different from other areas. Based on statistics, the authors separated land-use transformations of the mountainous area of Beijing to random and systematic transitions through an in-depth analysis of land use transition matrix. A land-use transition is random if a land-use category gains from other categories in proportion to the availability of those other losing categories, or if a category loses to other categories in proportion to the size of those other gaining categories. Any large deviation from those proportions is referred to as a systematic transition. From the concurrent incidence of systematic gains and losses, it is concluded that the most dominant signals of change find expression in the following aspects: the conversion of higher coverage grassland and other woodland to cropland, the conversion of cropland and sparse woodland to other woodland, the conversion of sparse woodland to higher coverage grassland, the conversion of cropland and higher coverage grassland to water areas and the conversion of cropland to built-up areas. The transition areas from cropland to other woodland and built-up areas are relatively large and have obvious advantages for systematic transitions. While the areas of transitions from other woodland to cropland and from sparse woodland to higher coverage grassland are relatively small, the transitions are still attributed to dominant signals of change. This method is simple and practical and enables scientists to focus their research on the most important land transitions, which will help in linking patterns to processes and in management of land resources.
