The Huang-Huai-Hai Plain, a vital agricultural area in China with significant amount of arable land, plays pivotal role influencing grain production, ecological carbon cycles, and global climate change through its shifts land use. Within this research, we have employed the ArcGIS tool In-VEST-Geodetector-PLUS methodology to scrutinize storage from year 2000 2020, determine influences behind these shifts, anticipate projected for 2030. Although there has been slight increase forested areas as result environmental policies, conversion cropland impervious surfaces due urbanization led persistent decrease storage, cumulative loss 272.79 million metric tons over two decades. Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Night-Time Lights (NTL), Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Population (POP) are critical factors impacting reflecting intricate connection between socio-economic development natural ecosystems. multi-scenario simulations 2030 suggest that least reduction would occur under scenario protecting while most be urban expansion scenario, highlighting impact urbanization. study’s results emphasize need harmonize conservation economic progress enduring growth region.

The Wenchuan earthquake, an unexpected magnitude 8.0 mega-earthquake that struck on 12 May 2008, significantly changed land cover (LC), particularly affecting vegetation and rock cover. However, the long-term effects of LC changes ecosystem services (ESs) remain unclear in earthquake-affected regions, especially across different spatial scales. This study, focusing County, employs a multi-model framework integrates fractional coverage (FVC), exposure rate (FR), (ESs), combining correlation analysis, geographically weighted regression (GWR), Self-organizing map (SOM) clustering, XGBoost-SHAP model, to analyze spatiotemporal dynamics, interrelationships, driving mechanisms (LC) ESs before after earthquake. Results show that: (1) From 2000 2020, FVC FR fluctuated markedly under earthquake influence, with slight declines habitat quality (HQ) carbon storage (CS) notable improvements soil conservation (SC) water yield (WY). (2) With increasing elevation, FVC–CS–SC group exhibited downward trend synergy, while FR–HQ–WY increased also showed synergy; trade-offs synergies became more pronounced at larger scales, displaying strong heterogeneity. (3) Elevation (explaining 10–60% variance) was main driver for ESs, use, slope, human activities, climate, geological conditions impacting individual indicators. At same time, existing hazard points are mainly concentrated along both sides river valleys, which may be associated intensified human–land conflicts. These findings offer valuable insights into ecological restoration sustainable development regions.

Cities must prepare for future uncertainties associated with climate change and societal challenges. This study used the Patch-generating Land Use Simulation (PLUS) model to simulate potential scenarios Tehran metropolitan area. We considered various development their implications.The sustainable scenario produced more balanced outcomes, including rangeland expansion preservation of cropland. In addition, using Integrated Valuation Ecosystem Services Trade-offs (InVEST) model, we quantified seven ecosystem services from 2017 2043, revealing temporal spatial variations. Some showed significant declines in water yield, carbon storage, urban cooling, habitat quality, stormwater retention, flood mitigation, recreation potential, particularly southern areas. contrast, is a promising scenario, along compact growth nature conservation. Utilizing Criteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation (CRITIC) method, identified risk mitigation management as critical service priorities. Synergies emerged among heat while trade-offs were observed between others, such storage quality. Priority maps fuzzy geospatial multicriteria analysis high-priority areas protection restoration. The proposed integrated multi-scenario approach discovered gap regional, urban, landscape planning, emphasizing need priorities minimize promote future. helps clarify current situation trends nature-based solutions that help build resilience cities
