The continuous expansion and development of anthropogenic activities pose considerable threats to the habitats myriad species. Therefore, exploring how protect optimize species' achieve harmony between humans nature is particularly important. As a paradise for wildlife, Poyang Lake habitat breeding ground birds, fish, other aquatic organisms. In this study, adopting multi-level perspective 'point-line-area', we had an appliance conservation by constructing ecological security pattern (ESP) in Ecoregion (PYLE). We produced land use cover from 2000 2040 using random forest cellular automata-Markov model. Combining morphological spatial analysis, landscape index, Linkage Mapper, constructed long-term ESP PYLE considering protection. spatiotemporal dynamics were compared analyzed. results show that PYLE's rapid economic led extensive urban growth, encroaching on surrounding bare land, which could undermine local survival. Based predicted 2040, propose optimized 'one area, two zones, multiple points' scheme prioritize This comprehensive study provides innovative ideas novel insights future research policy formulation

The constant conflict between the rapidly developing socioeconomic and ecological environment within Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area necessitates exploration of ecosystem vulnerability patterns driving mechanisms. A comprehensive social–economic–ecological framework is proposed to assess pattern Area, specifically spanning from 1990 2020. Employing geographic detectors weighting methods, study quantifies spatiotemporal variation underlying mechanisms in area. results demonstrate an obvious trend index (ESVI) across with initial decline followed by gradual increase during the1990–2020. substantial majority region (approximately 63.85% total area) experienced a ESVI 2010. Moreover, spatial distribution this exhibited prevailing east-to-west pattern, indicating overall southward shift over time. Furthermore, was primarily concentrated central expanding urban areas situated on both sides Pearl River estuary.

The Tarim Basin is located in an arid inland area; the ecological environment fragile, and it extremely sensitive to climate change. For purpose of studying dynamic changes vegetation response extreme climate, this study used Vegetation Ecological Quality Index (EQI) as a indicator calculated 12 indices using Rclimdex. Pearson correlation analysis was explore relationship between EQI values various at both inter-annual intra-annual scales. Additionally, geographic detector employed examine single interactive effects on for different types. following found: (1) During 2000–2022, showed upward trend Basin, increase agricultural fastest. (2) Since 2000, warm temperature have risen, whereas cold declined. warming rate nighttime temperatures exceeds that daytime, precipitation rises intensively. Simultaneously, continuous dry days also increased.

Sophora alopecuroides L., a perennial herb in the arid and semi-arid regions of northwest China, has ecological functions windbreaking sand fixation high medicinal value. In recent years, global warming human activities have led to changes suitable habitats for S. alopecuroides, which may affect accumulation natural products. this study, MaxEnt 3.4 ArcGIS 10.4 software were used predict distribution potentially China under climate change.

Therefore, study vulnerability from perspective production-living-ecological space is crucial for sustainable Yellow River Basin global urban agglomerations. The relationship between productivity, living conditions, ecological spatial quality fully considered in this research. By constructing a evaluation index system based on perspectives production, ecology, space, adopting entropy value method, comprehensive model, obstacle factor diagnostic comprehensively assesses along 2001 to 2020. results reveal differentiation characteristics agglomeration significant. A clear three-level gradient distribution high, medium, low degrees seen overall vulnerability; these correspond lower, middle, upper reaches Basin, respectively. percentage cities with higher moderate levels did not vary 2020, while high did. four dimensions development, leisure tourism, resource availability, pressure primary determinants agglomeration’s River. And factors various showed significant evolutionary trend; degree values have declined, importance tourism functions has gradually increased. Based above conclusions, we propose several suggestions enhance agglomeration.
