Abstract:
Based on a set of 1 127 modern surface pollen assemblages from China and NASA MODIS 500m resolution image,this paper presents the preliminary reconstructions of vegetation cover of China using modern analog technique. Trees,herbs and bare land coverage data were extracted from MODIS images. A total of 64 pollen types was selected for estimating the vegetation cover. The modeling result shows that the evaluated vegetation covers based on pollen data were coherent with the observed value of MODIS,and the corr...
