The effect of quantum noise on entanglement localization is investigated. We show that the optimal strategy for reducing a multiparticle entangled state to a two-particle one via local measurements in the noise-free case is different from that in a noisy environment, and explore the best von Neumann measurement on one of three qubits of a triple Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state for extracting a two-qubit entangled state in the presence of local amplitude noises. We also demonstrate that the idea of entanglement localization can be utilized to improve the quality of bipartite entanglement distributing through noisy quantum channels. These results might shed a new light on entanglement manipulations and transformations.
