Urban green spaces face increasing pressure to reconcile ecological conservation with rising public demand as urbanization accelerates. Yet the spatial coupling of human needs and natural provisioning in urban–rural fringe remains insufficiently understood. Focusing on country park cluster Beijing’s Huitian region, this study develops an integrated assessment framework—combining importance, connectivity potential, construction suitability, recreational demand—to evaluate nature suitability pinpoint mismatches human–nature interactions. Ecological importance is quantified through sensitivity analysis InVEST-based habitat-quality modeling, while potential estimated via normalized least-cost corridor analysis.

Ecological security is integral to national strategies, making the construction of ecological patterns essential for mitigating risks. However, predictive research on (ESPs) remains limited. This study integrates Patch-generating Land Use Simulation (PLUS) model with pattern analysis provide scientific insights into spatial governance and optimization in Poyang Lake Economic Zone (PLEEZ). First, PLUS simulated land use changes 2030 under three scenarios: natural development (ND), economic (ED), protection (EP). Based these projections, were constructed using Integrated Valuation Ecosystem Services Tradeoffs (InVEST) model, Morphological Spatial Pattern Analysis (MSPA) method, Conefor 2.6, Minimum Cumulative Resistance (MCR) resistance theory. The results indicate: (1) 19, 18, 21 source areas identified different scenarios, covering 6093.16 km2, 5973.21 6702.56 respectively, 9, 8, 10 important sites, primarily north. (2) 37, 35, 43 corridors delineated, exhibiting a spiderweb-like distribution. (3) 94, 62, 107 pinch points 116, 121, 104 barrier detected. Node Aggregation Area was as critical zone targeted restoration. Finally, zoning management strategy “Four Cores, Two Zones, One Belt” proposed. offers valuable sustainable planning risk mitigation.
