英文摘要 | The oasis-desert transition zone (TZ) is an ecological buffer zone between a mobile desert and an oasis, which are important in reducing the forward mobility of sand dunes and wind and sand hazards in an oasis. In this study, the Dunhuang Oasis and its TZ in the Hexi Corridor (China) were examined. Based on the annual normalized vegetation index (NDVI) at each buffer distance of the TZ from 1987 to 2015, combing the watershed hydrology, oasis crop cultivation structure and industrial economic status, partial least squares regression models and a correlation analysis were used to examine the spatial and temporal changes in the vegetation gradient of the oasis TZ and the factors influencing those changes. (1) Spatially, the NDVI values in the TZ generally decreased gradually before stabilizing with a buffer distance (average decrease of 0.01-0.03 per 300 m). (2) Temporally, the mean values of the NDVI in the TZ show an overall wavelike variation across years. The annual average maximum NDVI value was 0.11 in 1987, whereas the annual average minimum value was 0.07 in 2014. (3) During the 1987-2015, runoff, tourist populations and water consumption for orchards were significantly and positively correlated with the NDVI; the year-end arable land area and the total industrial output value were significantly and negatively correlated with the NDVI; the rural per capita net income and water consumption for grain planting were not significantly and positively correlated with the NDVI; water consumption for the sum of vegetable and melon planting, water consumption for cotton planting, urbanization and rural populations were not significantly and negatively correlated with the NDVI. (4) The farm TZ NDVI is more strongly influenced by human activities than the undisturbed natural TZ. |
