Global population growth has increasingly intensified human interferences with natural ecosystems. These often exhibit complexity and diversity characteristics. Understanding the relationship between environmental issues become a focus in current scientific community. This study, leveraging multi-source remote sensing census data from China for years 2000, 2010, 2020, utilized multiple spatial econometric models to investigate pressure of dynamics on Ecological Environment Quality (EEQ). A bivariate local autocorrelation model was applied pinpoint regions that experienced significant over past two decades. Results showed there rise density, larger cities attracting more migrants residents EEQ declining most counties. The analysis revealed strong dependence changes population. Spatial regression were effective than non-spatial explaining EEQ. Population significantly associated decline. Based model, decreased by 0.029% every 1% increase 2000 2010. During 2010–2020, this impact pronounced, 0.069% decline Pressure zones widespread unsustainable (decreases EEQ), followed areas both increases declines, fewer demonstrating coordinated development improvements. Effective solutions address challenges involve government regulation, strategic planning, cross-regional management, sharing responsibilities benefits.

As a critical component of the geographical divide between northern and southern regions China, ecological stability Qinling region has profound implications for balance within China across East Asia. However, degradation risk areas remain unclear, there are gaps in delineation key protection areas. This study examines improvement decline from 2000 to 2023 terms ecosystem patterns, quality, functions. Moreover, function zones were identified, future development paths proposed region. The findings indicate that: (1) Urban area expansion was most rapid, increasing by about 1800 km², with an average yearly growth rate 2.43%. Ecosystem quality increased 48.07% primarily located Sanjiangyuan, Minshan-Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Loess Plateau Shaanxi, Henan, Gansu. core water soil conservation only accounted 17.92% 10.47%, respectively, mainly distributed Qinling-Daba Mountains. Based on functions, restoration projects, been divided into two majority categories 16 subcategories: 7 ecologically functional 9 offers recommendations formulating policies, thereby promoting sustainable region's ecology economy.

In light of the soaring growth pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) plants in China recent years, there is an urgent need for a comprehensive understanding their developmental trajectory and identification multidimensional impacts. This paper reviews development PHES highlights its various Despite relatively late start China, country has recently ranked first worldwide with aggregated installed capacity 50.94 GW operation 2023. These are primarily distributed North East South contributing to safe stable regional power grids. Furthermore, over 300 under construction or planning stage across whole country, aiming support large-scale renewable facilitate sustainable transition. However, it important recognize that such extensive requires significant land resources, which can lead disturbances local ecosystems affect nearby residents. Additionally, environmental emissions may arise from life-cycle perspective. Finally, several countermeasures proposed enhance China. They include strengthening rational new optimize spatial distribution, refining engineering design plants, exploring avenues sharing benefits broad spectrum
