| Abstract | Global change and human disturbance have significantly influenced the eco鄄environments on which humankind depends, and have increased the ecological vulnerability of these environments. The vulnerability of the eco鄄environment in the Three Gorges Reservoir Region has been a great concern in recent years. This region plays an important role in the ecological function of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, China; yet, it is subject to intensive human disturbance, making it particularly vulnerable, especially the areas in Chongqing Municipality where the economy is in a rapid development. Spatially explicit ecological vulnerability assessment has been regarded as one of the significant tools for ecological restoration and protection for many years. This study quantitatively evaluated ecological vulnerability in the Three Gorges Reservoir Region in Chongqing Municipality from 2001 to 2010 through the use of remote sensing ( RS) and geographical information system ( GIS) techniques. The ecological vulnerability distribution and its dynamics over the |
