The spatial distribution and dynamic change of land use and land cover are analyzed over a 20 years span based on multi-temporal satellite data from 1989, 1995 and 2009. During the period from 1989 to 2009, built-up area and water body increased, whereas agricultural land and mudflat decreased. Urban settlement area increased nearly 5 times, mainly due to the city expansion, and mainly transformed from agricultural land. Land use dynamic degree analysis shown that loss speed of mudflat and agricultural land accelerated over the last two decades. It is demonstrated that human activities and social influences are main driving forces contributing to dynamic changes in land use and land cover in the last two decades in Jiangsu coastal area.
