| Abstract | The water-level-fluctuating zone (WLFZ) in the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) changes seasonally because of the special hydrological characteristics and agriculture practices. Rapid land use changes have taken place in the WLFZ of the TGR, which is affected by the functions and structures of the local environmental system directly or indirectly. Land use change analysis is very important for land planning and environmental management in the TGR area. This paper presents an integrated study of land use change in the WLFZ of the TGR area by using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The study explored the temporal and spatial characteristics of this area from 2000a to 2005a and the land use/cover changes during this period. Data of viewdata graphics, social statistics and environmental monitor were collected and inputted into ArcGIS for calculating the transition matrix of land use and used to analyze the changes in the landscape. The main purpose of this study was to determine the land use transition rate between land use types in this area over the 5 years from 2000-2005 and to quantify the changes of various land uses. Surprisingly the results show that the arable land has increased by 1466.79ha while the garden land has decreased by 519.71 ha and the water area has decreased by 652.39ha during the past 5 years. The major factors influencing the ecosystem and land use changes of the WLFZ were human-related factors, such as transmigrant, and intensified and unreasonable utilization of land resources. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
