Note that land use maps for 1985, 1995 and 2005 were used to represent land use in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, respectively; climatic condition of the 1980s is denoted by climatic data for 1980–1989; climatic condition of the 1990s is denoted by climatic data for 1990–1999; and then climatic condition of the 2000s is denoted by climatic data for 2000–2009.
