Abstract

The growth of cities and human demands for a better life have influenced the transformation of land use from natural land or vegetation to an artificial area-impervious surface (IS). The IS is an important indicator to measure the process of urbanization and its impact on the ecological environment. This article aims to analyze the trends of impervious surface and exert influence on land cover/land use occupation based on High-Resolution Layers (HRL) of imperviousness time-series data from 2006 to 2015 obtained from the European Copernicus Programme for seven Kosovo's regions. For the spatiotemporal distribution of the IS changes to be expected, the overlay of the GIS method was utilized. The results show that the absolute and relative rate of IS increased in all Kosovo's districts in four time periods: 2006, 2009, 2012, and 2015. Whereas, in the three periods of impervious change: 2006 2009, 2009-2012, and 2012 – 2015 regional distinctions were distinguished, where Prishtina and Prizren regions occupy the most spatial increases of IS. To highlight the consumption of land cover/land use area by the IS increase change results of the periods 2009 -2012, and 2012 – 2015, fivefirst class categories of CORINE Land Cover inventory from 2012 and 2018 year utilized. In both periods, the most affected land cover class by IS increases was the artificial area, followed by agricultural area and forest and semi-natural area, where wetlands and water land cover classes showed no affection in all of Kosovo's regions.

2006 - 2015年科索沃不透水面趋势分析及其对景观变化的影响

城市的发展和人类对美好生活的需求影响了土地利用从自然土地或植被向人工区域不透水表面的转变。IS是衡量城市化进程及其对生态环境影响的重要指标。本文基于欧洲哥白尼计划2006 - 2015年科索沃7个地区不透水时间序列数据的高分辨率层(HRL)，分析了科索沃不透水地表变化趋势及其对土地覆盖/土地利用占用的影响。针对预期IS变化的时空分布，利用GIS方法的叠加。结果表明，在2006年、2009年、2012年和2015年四个时期，科索沃所有地区的IS的绝对和相对比率都有所上升。在2006 - 2009年、2009-2012年和2012 - 2015年3个不透水变化时期，区域差异明显，普里什蒂纳和普里兹伦地区IS空间增量最大。为了突出2009 -2012年和2012 - 2015年期间IS增加变化对土地覆盖/土地利用面积的消耗，利用了2012年和2018年CORINE土地覆盖清单的5个第一类类别。在这两个时期，受IS增加影响最大的土地覆盖类别是人工区域，其次是农业区、森林和半自然区域，其中湿地和水域土地覆盖类别在科索沃所有地区都没有受到影响。

期刊介绍： Geographia Technica is a journal devoted to the publication of all papers on all aspects of the use of technical and quantitative methods in geographical research. It aims at presenting its readers with the latest developments in G.I.S technology, mathematical methods applicable to any field of geography, territorial micro-scalar and laboratory experiments, and the latest developments induced by the measurement techniques to the geographical research. Geographia Technica is dedicated to all those who understand that nowadays every field of geography can only be described by specific numerical values, variables both oftime and space which require the sort of numerical analysis only possible with the aid of technical and quantitative methods offered by powerful computers and dedicated software. Our understanding of Geographia Technica expands the concept of technical methods applied to geography to its broadest sense and for that, papers of different interests such as: G.l.S, Spatial Analysis, Remote Sensing, Cartography or Geostatistics as well as papers which, by promoting the above mentioned directions bring a technical approach in the fields of hydrology, climatology, geomorphology, human geography territorial planning are more than welcomed provided they are of sufficient wide interest and relevance.
