Urban green space systems (UGSS) play a crucial role in enhancing citizens’ well-being and promoting sustainable urban development through their ecosystem service values (ESV). However, understanding the spatiotemporal changes, driving factors, influencing mechanisms of ESV remains critical challenge for advancing theories formulating effective policies. This study focuses on Suzhou, China’s third-largest prefecture-level city by economic volume ecological core Taihu watershed, to evaluate its UGSS from 2010 2020, identify key analyze mechanisms. Using InVEST model combined with entropy weight method (EWM), we assessed changes over period. To examine mechanisms, employed an innovative XGBoost-GWR approach, where XGBoost was used screen globally significant factors 37 potential drivers, geographically weighted regression (GWR) applied local spatial heterogeneity, providing research perspective that balances global nonlinear relationships heterogeneity. The results revealed three findings: First, while Suzhou’s increased 9.92% Global Moran’s I index rose 0.325 0.489, indicating distribution became more uneven, highlighting risks. Second, climate, topography, landscape pattern, vegetation emerged as most topographic showing greatest variation (the negatively impacted area 455.60 km2) climate having largest overall impact but least variation. Third, were primarily driven land use resulting urbanization industrialization, leading risks such soil erosion, pollution, fragmentation, habitat degradation, particularly Kunshan, Wujiang, Zhangjiagang Districts, agricultural has been extensively converted constructed land. not only elucidates UGSS’s also expands theoretical urbanization’s impacts, valuable insights optimizing layout informing planning

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Ecosystem Services and Their Trade-Offs and Synergies in Response to Natural and Social Factors: Evidence from Yibin, Upper Yangtze River

Land, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 13(7), P. 1009 - 1009

Published: July 7, 2024

During the rapid urbanization phase, trade-off between ecosystem services is most severe and also effective stage to implement ecological management. Exploring natural—social driving mechanisms for trade-offs contributes coordinated development of social economy nature. Taking typical mountainous city (Yibin) that currently in phase ecologically fragile as an example, utilizing a combination difference comparison, trade-off–synergy index (TSI), optimal-parameter-based geographical detector model (OPGD), multi-scale geographically weighted regression (MGWR), we spatially assess nature intensity ES relationships explore its social–natural mechanisms. Our findings reveal following: (1) Varied geospatial patterns four ESs—habitat quality (HQ), carbon storage (CS), soil conservation (SC), water yield (WY)—with greatest fluctuations WY. (2) Significant changes over time, showing predominant positive synergies WY-HQ, WY-SC, HQ-CS, negative HQ SC, WY-CS SC-CS. (3) Distinct, time-varying factors different relationships: climate topography WY, vegetation CS, economic HQ, SC. Rapid has diminished role natural factors. (4) The coefficients local various factors, based on which targeted recommendations can be proposed. For instance, establishment interconnected small wetlands green spaces urban areas enhancement multiple ESs. purpose this study provide scientific insights into optimizations key services’ are undergoing urbanization.

A Village-Scale Study Regarding Landscape Evolution and Ecological Effects in a Coastal Inner Harbor

Land, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(2), P. 319 - 319

Published: Feb. 5, 2025

The development of inner harbors has been accompanied by the destruction natural landscapes, which in turn led to numerous ecological problems. However, temporal and spatial relationships between changes harbor landscape effects are not yet clear, there relatively few studies at smaller scales such as villages. In this study, we investigated Xieqian Harbor Xiangshan County, along eastern coast China, then analyzed change evolutionary characteristics carbon storage, soil conservation, water yield village scale for years 2000, 2010, 2020. We used geographically temporally weighted regression (GTWR) model explore spatiotemporal variables effects. results showed that fragmentation diversity patches increased from 2000 2020 due reclamation aquaculture, tourism development, construction, reflected edge density (ED) Shannon index (SHDI), 11.31% 2.82%, respectively. This resulted a notable reduction 572.6 thousand tons sequestration, 853 million 19 cubic meters over past 20 years. When non-stationarity heterogeneity were combined, relationship became highly intricate, with varying responses across different time periods locations. area-weighted mean patch shape (AWMSI) was key factor affecting three Our research confirmed significant on scale. Compared larger-scale studies, village-scale revealed more precisely impacts localized effects, providing support sustainable management new approach integrating GTWR into time–space analysis research.

Exploring the Driving Forces of Ecosystem Services in the Yangtze River Basin, China

Land, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(2), P. 411 - 411

Published: Feb. 16, 2025

Ecosystem services (ESs) are increasingly recognized as critical to sustainable development and human well-being frequently used indicators in environmental governance policies. However, existing studies mostly assess the performance of isolated single ESs, ignoring management data needs local governments for comprehensive gate-keeping easy monitoring regional ecosystems, lacking holistic ESs. To address these shortcomings, this study assessed spatial changes five main ESs Yangtze River basin (YTRB) China by creating a indicator (CESI) using multi-source data, introduced hotspot analyses econometric models explore driving forces CESI. Results showed that during period, CESI YTRB increased from 0.44 2000 0.47 2020. High-value areas were mainly concentrated hilly mountainous regions, whereas low-value predominantly situated plain areas. From 2020, hot spots primarily located middle lower reaches YTRB. Conversely, cold upper The regression analysis revealed significant negative association between socioeconomic factors CESI, while positive natural background Of factors, average precipitation has largest effect on with each 1% increase resulting up 0.369% In contrast, GDP density had greatest impact triggering reduction 6.210%. findings suggest which integrates multiple can effectively simplify difficulty ecological regulation. mechanism indicates protection policies, when combined conditions intensity activities region, would be more coherent varying regulatory intensities.
