Abstract: Based on Landsat TM, Landsat TM8 OLI, RS, GIS and field remote-sensing survey data in 1990 and 2015, the spatial distribution of soil erosion pattern and its spatial-temporal evolution characteristics in Zhong county, Chongqing city were analyzed. The results shows that in these two periods, soil erosion was dominated by the micro erosion. The proportions of the soil erosion in 1990 and 2015 were 44.67% and 54.88%, respectively. The sumsof area proportions of the area in the mild, moderate and strong soil erosion type in 1990 and 2015 in this area is 50.99% and 41.59%, respectively. As the area of micro erosion increases, the area of other erosion types decreases. Strong erosion area showed the sharpest cut (25.77%) and mild erosion area narrows mostly(101.16 km2). The great conversion happens between micro erosion and mild erosion, as the conversion between extreme strong erosions and strong erosions with other erosion types were relatively smaller.

Key words: remote-sensing, soil erosion, spatial-temporal evolution, spatial distribution, Zhong county of Chongqing city
