Assessment of potential dominant factors for brownfield landscape regeneration: A case study in Xi’an, China

PLoS ONE, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 20(2), P. e0312668 - e0312668

Published: Feb. 10, 2025

Rapid global urbanization has made brownfield reuse a vital issue for sustainable urban development. However, the regeneration of landscapes is complex and lengthy process that requires combination factors to be considered. Their landscape must planned prioritized utilize sites achieve positive social benefits. Therefore, an urgent need established establish assessment framework system various types dominant find different factors. This research developed model using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), covering five types: industrial, mining, military, transportation, landfill in Xi’an, China. The potential three levels were analyzed weighting explore Xi’an. results showed that, firstly, among first-level factors, physicality factor was most important. Secondly, 16 second-level spatial physical features visual critical. Finally, 40 three-level primary factor. purpose this provide specific data analysis methods ideas China other regions based on with strong adaptability proposed by AHP method, which can flexibly adapted areas countries, realize development cities regions.

With accelerating urbanization, urban expansion poses a significant threat to biodiversity, especially endemic species, which are more sensitive land use changes. However, date, the impacts of future at species level in China on remain unclear. This study aims comprehensively evaluate impact under framework shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs) from 2015 2050 using multiple indicators, including suitable habitat area changes, fragmentation, and extinction risk. The results show that perspective loss risk, negative may be greater for than other with wide distribution. In addition, 56% affected suffer exacerbated fragmentation. Biodiversity is serious regions high richness agglomerations rapid development future. Endemic birds amphibians sensitivity threats various perspectives. provides basis biodiversity conservation, guiding balance between protection.
