Ecosystem services (ESs) have been changed significantly due to human and natural interference, especially in urban megaregions. Numerous studies revealed the impact of urbanization on regional ecosystem service(ES). However, research whether expansion has sacrificed areas providing high ESs, which played a crucial role sustainable development, was poorly understood. This study analyzed spatial variation ES supply from 2000 2020 under influence Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA). The result showed that GBA witnessed high-seeped nearly 50% encroached cropland, 25% forestland, waterbody 2020. Secondly, ESs expansion. Importantly, 74.48% 59.74% were ecological lands provided very level 2010 2020, respectively. direct decreased. Additionally, increase old also positive ES. expects systematically assess provide scientific information land use planning for development.

Multiscale Sensitivity Analysis of Landscape Fragmentation in Plantation Forests on the Loess Plateau

Land Degradation and Development, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Jan. 13, 2025

ABSTRACT Effectively quantifying plantation forest fragmentation is crucial for vegetation restoration and management on the Loess Plateau. Forest area density (FAD) effectively measures fragmentation, with multiscale sensitivity analysis essential determining appropriate window scale threshold. This study uses data from different geomorphological types (hilly gully plateau region) of Various sizes are applied to evaluate FAD threshold curve its derivative a stable threshold, while structural equation model employed analyze drivers fragmentation. The results as follows: (1) variability decreases increasing size, leveling off after reaching (2) Thresholds vary by type county. (3) Two principal components explain 81.27% stabilization variation, strong correlations between similar types. (4) Fragmentation slowed 2000 2022, hilly region more fragmented than region. (5) Stand structure mitigates topographic climate change influences showing heterogeneity. “Core” maintain stability, “Islet” drive emphasizes importance scale‐specific adaptive strategies in mitigating supports optimizing ecological targeted conservation strategies, promoting sustainable

Scale effects on the supply–demand mismatches of ecosystem services in Hubei Province, China

Ecological Indicators, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 153, P. 110461 - 110461

Published: June 10, 2023

Understanding the patterns, relationships, and driving forces between ecosystem services (ESs) supply–demand at multiple spatial scales can facilitate sustainable hierarchical management. However, scale effects of ESs mismatches were typically ignored, resulting in inadequate targeted promotion policies. This study identified key (grain production, water yield, carbon sequestration, soil conservation) using ecological ratio bivariate Moran's I three grid county from 2000 to 2020 Hubei Province, China. Then regression models applied explore these mismatches. The major results revealed that (1) Province counties located away urban areas self-sufficient supply–demand, but numbers declined over twenty years. characteristics some patches may be obscured coarser scales. (2) directions socioecological drivers robust, their intensities changed significantly four normalized difference vegetation index was primary positive driver fine scale, while population, economy, proportion construction land became dominant Factors influencing more diverse compared coarse scale. (3) Efficient strategies scale-dependent place-based. Different management units should clarify responsibilities strengthen linkages upper lower levels achieve development. At provincial level, strengthening interregional cooperation allocating surplus grain resources southwest regions contributes balancing regional ESs. adopting region-specific based on delineating zones is crucial. finer levels, incorporating micro-scale mismatch locations natural background information provide valuable guidance for localized protection restoration projects. findings underscore strengths conducting assessments scales, enabling different government enhance effective prevent misinformation.

Underlying the influencing factors behind the heterogeneous change of urban landscape patterns since 1990: A multiple dimension analysis

Urbanization brings dramatic changes in land cover and significantly alters urban morphology, which turn affects the ecological processes environment. To promote sustainability, it is necessary to accurately quantify dynamic form reveal associated influencing factors. This study selected seven periods of boundary data socioeconomic for 31 provincial capitals China from 1990 2018. The evolution characteristics factors landscape patterns different dimensions were analyzed based on stepwise regression method. Results indicated that patch area aggregation showed a significant increasing trend 2018, whereas fragmentation exhibited decreasing trend. shape complexity each city an 2005, eastern cities megacities tended decrease thereafter. suggest when development reaches certain level, will gradually become regular. There was obvious spatial heterogeneity pattern evolution. Social economic promoted expansion reduced fragmentation, resulted negative effect density. For economically developed east, after has be regularized, further increase output value tertiary industry reduce index (LSI). rate played major role contagion other mainly influenced by fixed-asset investment. Therefore, heterogeneous measures should considered future optimization at various zone or hierarchical scales.
