Abstract

We used remote sensing data to clarify recent climate changes and land-cover changes in the Amur River Basin. We also analyzed locations of remarkable land-cover and land-use changes that are of concern for their socioeconomic impacts on fluvial geomorphology. We focused especially on wetlands on the fluvial plain along the Amur River main stem. Land-cover changes in Northeast China are more extensive and rapid than those in Russia and related with land degradation in the north. Rapid land-cover changes have had notable effects on surface erosion and land degradation where is repeated flooding of branches of the Amur River in Northeast China.
