Abstract
Remarkable changes of vegetation cover in the Loess Plateau occurred in the latest 20 years. Land use/land cover (LULC) data of 1985, 1999 and 2009 were collected based on Landsat MSS, TM and MODIS remote sensing data. Results show that the widely implemented ecological restoration policies obtained a great success, achieving remarkable vegetation recovery and soil conservation in the Loess Plateau.
