Abstract

Turfy soil is a kind of special soil accumulated by undecomposed plants which is detrimental to the engineering. In this paper, particular identified patterns for the turfy soil in the northeast of China was raised including the method of extracting threshold value, block analysis and fuzzy evaluation. And field investigations were undertaken to verify the accuracy of identification by remote sensing, and the correlation of field result and remote sensing result was summarized so as to analyze the regularities of distribution and evolutionary mechanism of turfy soil. The result shows that the combination of extracting threshold value, block analysis and fuzzy evaluation are effective methods to predict the distribution of the turfy soil; with the correlation of membership degree and field result, we can analyze the evolutionary mechanism of turfy soil affected by both nature factors and human activities, which is beneficial for the preservation of the turfy soil and also shows significant environmental ecological benefit.
