Spatial Effect of Illegal Occupied Cultivated Land in Chinese Provinces

Through analyzing temporal and spatial features of illegal occupied cultivated land in Chinese provinces,the paper showed that spatial distribution of Chinese illegally occupied cultivated land was generally discrete but in some areas it agglomerated from 1999 to 2007.The spatial measurement was used to analyze the spatial effect of illegally occupied cultivated land in Chinese provinces from 1999 to 2007.The study indicated that the illegally occupied cultivated land in 31 provinces in Chinese mainland had a significant positive autocorrelation in terms of geographic space,and similarities of illegally occupied cultivated land in some provinces tended to agglomerate together.Moran's I statistical values of agglomeration the illegally occupied cultivated land presented a N shape change tendency from 1999 to 2007.Positive spatial effect of Chinese illegally occupied cultivated land among provinces was strengthened.Illegally occupied cultivated land took an adjacent effect of geographic space in Chinese provinces
