Abstract

This study investigated the dynamic changes of land use/cover in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) from 1979 to 2016 by using transfer matrix method combined with remote sensing and GIS. The results show that during this period, Farmland reduced 19744.27 km² with a drop of 81%, 6147.76 km² of which had been designated for industrial land. The land use changed variously among the districts in the GBA, and the comprehensive dynamic index of land use of Zhongshan city was the highest; and that of Huizhou city was the lowest. Social and economic factors such as population, economy, transportation and policy all have an important impact on the land use pattern and its changes in the GBA.
