TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper examined the spatiotemporal characteristics, differences, and causes of land-use changes at a national scale and found that the built-up lands expanded rapidly, were mainly distributed in the east, and gradually spread out to central and western China.

TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial pattern of land-use changes in China during 2010-2015 was concordant with that of the period 2000-2010, while the decreasing rate of woodland and grassland accelerated.

TL;DR: Li et al. as discussed by the authors analyzed the trajectories, patterns, and drivers of these two intertwining processes at a 5-year interval from 1990 to 2010 to identify their trajectories and spatiotemporal patterns.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a comparative analysis of 30-year urban expansion patterns and rates among three metropolises in China (Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou) and another three in the USA (New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago) based on time-series impervious surface area (ISA) data extracted from multitemporal Landsat images using the linear spectral mixture analysis approach.

TL;DR: In this article, the spatial differences and the relationships between land surface temperatures and the hierarchical landscape structure were analyzed with in situ observations of surface radiation and heat fluxes in Beijing, China.
