Urban expansion encroaches on green spaces and weakens ecosystem services, potentially leading to a trade-off between ecological conditions socio-economic growth. Effectively coordinating the two elements is essential for achieving sustainable development goals at urban scale. However, few studies have measured urban–ecological linkage in terms of trade-off. In this study, we propose framework by linking degraded land use efficiency from return investment perspective. Taking rapidly expanding city as case comprehensively quantified four aspects: heat island, flood regulating service, habitat quality, carbon sequestration. These were assessed 1 km2 grids, along with same spatial We employed slack-based measure model evaluate applied geo-detector method identify its driving factors.

Scale Differences and Gradient Effects of Local Climate Zone Spatial Pattern on Urban Heat Island Impact—A Case in Guangzhou’s Core Area

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 16(15), P. 6656 - 6656

With the continuous development of cities, surface urban heat island intensity (SUHII) is increasing, leading to deterioration thermal environment, increasing energy consumption, and endangering health residents. Understanding spatio-temporal scale difference gradient effect spatial patterns on impact SUHII crucial for improving climate resilience cities promoting sustainable development. This paper investigated characteristics changes at different time periods based local zones (LCZs) downscaled land temperature (LST) data. Meanwhile, landscape pattern indicators multiscale geographically weighted regression (MGWR) model were utilized analyze impacts multiple spatial–temporal scales. The results indicated that each LCZ type exhibited diverse in periods. High occurred summer daytime autumn nighttime. Compact high-rise buildings (LCZ1/2/4) showed markedly higher during or nighttime, except heavy industry. extent influence dominant factors exhibit obvious differences effects. At regional scale, highly regular compacted built-up areas tended increase SUHII, while single continuously distributed had a greater SUHII. PLAND (1/2/4/5/10) trend diminishing from suburban areas. In areas, 1, 2, LCZ4 was major factor affecting whereas, 2 10 influencing can provide scientific reference mitigating effects constructing an ecologically ‘designed’ city.

Spatial–Temporal Assessment of Eco-Environment Quality with a New Comprehensive Remote Sensing Ecological Index (CRSEI) Based on Quaternion Copula Function

Remote Sensing, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 16(19), P. 3580 - 3580

Published: Sept. 26, 2024

The traditional remote sensing ecological index (RSEI), based on principal component analysis (PCA) to integrate four evaluation indexes: greenness (NDVI), humidity (WET), dryness (NDBSI), and heat (LST), is insufficient comprehensively consider the influence of each eco-environment quality (EEQ). In this research, a new comprehensive (CRSEI) quaternion Copula function proposed characterize EEQ responded by integrating indexes. Additionally, spatiotemporal variation in Henan Province evaluated using monthly CRSEI data from 2001 2020. results show that: (1) applicability monitoring accuracy are better than that RSEI, which can be used assess EEQ. (2) declined between 2010 but significantly improved rebounded 2011 During period, values were higher West South lowest central Henan, with consistently showing highest across all seasons. (3) exhibited tendency deterioration cities outward, followed improvement outer areas back towards cities. 2010, regions poor made up 68.3% total area, whereas 2020, excellent accounted for 74% area. (4) was negatively correlated human activities, while it positively precipitation. research provides reference guidance scientific assessment regional eco-environment.
