[Spatiotemporal Changes and Driving Force Analysis of Vegetation Cover in the Urban Belt Along the Yellow River in Ningxia].

The urban belt along the Yellow River in Ningxia, located in the middle and upper reaches of the Yellow River, serves as the population and economic center of Ningxia. Quantitatively analyzing the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of the fraction of vegetation cover （FVC） in this region and its driving factors is of great significance for promoting ecological protection and the construction of a leading area for high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin. In this study, Landsat satellite remote sensing data were utilized to derive the vegetation cover from 2001 to 2020 in the cities along the Yellow River in Ningxia using a pixel-based binary model.
