The spatiotemporal features of land use changes and the evolution process of landscape pattern from 1980 to 2017 were investigated using historical satellite images from a Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) for 1980, 1990, 2000, 2005, 2010 and 2017 in the wetlands of Lake Baiyangdian in the North China Plain (NCP). Landscape pattern indices were used to quantify landscape changes in wetlands, and a redundancy analysis (RDA) was conducted to analyze the driving forces and quantitatively explain the effects of human activities and natural changes on wetland fragmentation. The results showed that the total wetland area was 234.4 km2 in 1980 but it decreased by 8.1% at an average decrease rate of 0.5 km2 per year. The dominant transition between land use types was from natural wetlands to artificial wetlands, and wetland conversion to dry land and residential land. The RDA results suggested that agricultural activities and total population were the main driving factors affecting wetland landscape. Additionally, climate change provided a potentially favorable environment for agricultural development, due to the increased temperatures and decreased wind speeds. Additionally, governmental policy changes and dam construction also played the roles in land use changes.

Wetland landscape patterns are the result of various ecological and hydrological processes. Based on the land use landscape types from 1980 to 2017, a transfer matrix, landscape pattern analysis index, and principal component analysis were used to analyze the landscape pattern evolution in the Xiong’an New Area of China, which has a large area with a lake and river wetlands. The results showed that the wetland area has changed greatly since 2000 and the beach land has decreased greatly, while the area of the lake and river wetlands has increased slightly. Beach land was the dominant landscape type of the wetland. The dominant degree of the wetland landscape showed a slightly decreasing trend, and the patches tended to be scattered. The shape complexity of the ponds was the lowest, while that of rivers was the highest. The fragmentation degree of the wetland patches increased, the proportion of landscape types tended to be equalized, and the landscape heterogeneity increased. The leading factors of the wetland landscape change can be summarized as socioeconomic, meteorological, and hydrological processes, with a cumulative contribution rate of 85.3%, among which socioeconomic development was the most important factor. The results have important guiding significance for the ecological restoration and management of wetlands in the Xiong’an New Area and other wetland ecosystems with rivers and lakes.

The spatiotemporal changes of temperature and precipitation extremes in a typical arid and semiarid zone (Gansu Province, China) were investigated, including the latest observations (1960–2016) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Earth Exchange Global Daily Downscaled Projections (NEX‐GDDP) dataset that provides statistically downscaled Coupled Model Inter‐comparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) future climate projections (2017–2099) based on the Mann–Kendall test, linear regression, 5‐year smoothed average, and Bayesian model average (BMA) methods. The results show the following: (1) Apart from a slight decrease of diurnal temperature range (DTR), other temperature extreme indices presented significant trends over 1960–2016. Annual regional nighttime temperature increased at a faster rate than daytime temperature. In the seasonal series, cool nights (TN10p) and cool days (TX10p) showed significant decreases and warm nights (TN90p) and warm days (TX90p) significantly increased in all seasons. (2) Precipitation extreme indices showed decreasing trends, except for the max 1‐day precipitation (RX1DAY) and simple daily intensity index (SDII) with a weaker coherence of spatial patterns. From the perspective of spatial characteristics, the western area had an increasing trend of total precipitation while the east had a significant decreasing trend. In the seasonal series, a significant increase of RX1DAY and the max 5‐day precipitation (RX5DAY) was found in winter, as compared with spring, summer and autumn. (3) Positive trends in warm indices (i.e., summer days, tropical days, warm nights, warm days) and negative trends in cold indices (i.e., frost days, ice days, cool nights, cool days) can be observed in the 21st century. A slightly decreasing consecutive dry days (CDD), together with obviously increasing heavy precipitation days (R10), extremely wet days (R99p), RX5DAY and SDII, suggests more extreme precipitation for 2017–2099. The results are of practical use in improving regional strategies for water resources and eco‐environment management, especially for arid and semiarid regions. This article is protected by copyright.
