Rapid urbanization worldwide poses significant challenges to biodiversity, as urban habitat fragmentation coexists with diverse landscape forms. Residential areas, a critical component of ecology, are essential for understanding the mechanisms that drive biodiversity conservation and harmonious coexistence humans nature. Additionally, gradient distribution remains focal point in ecological research, aiding comprehension fundamental species–environment interactions. In this study, we sampled 269 residential areas across fifteen counties municipal districts on Hainan Island investigate alongside characteristics, well socio-economic environmental variables. Utilizing Generalized Linear Model (GLM), analyzed differences commonalities plant driving factors through horizontal vertical two-dimensional models box plots, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Coordinate (PCoA), path examine existence, distribution, nature these gradients. Our findings indicate following: different types driven by distinct mechanisms; cultivated plants primarily valued ornamental purposes, whereas rural their edible value is emphasized. Urban diversity was influenced altitude fundamentally affected economic factors. analyses identified influencing various established two primary gradients within areas: housing prices corresponding changes elevation. Both were found be outcomes factors, highlighting role development shaping biodiversity.

Understanding the characteristics of plant diversity and its relationship with soil environment in urban remnant habitats before after their transformation into parks is great significance for strengthening biodiversity conservation. To investigate changes following natural mountains (URNM) mountain (URMP), we conducted a study area Guiyang City, China. We sampled 90 plots across five typical URNM URMP. Plant properties were evaluated using four taxonomic indices 9 physicochemical properties. The results showed that exhibited higher richer species richness compared to In URNM, survival conditions deteriorate elevation slope position, resulting highest at lower slopes lowest upper slopes. However, intense human disturbances lead opposite pattern Additionally, bulk density, total phosphorus, potassium (TK) found be URMP than URNM. C/N, C/P, organic carbon identified as main factors influencing explanatory rates 20.1%, 15.4%, 8.6%, respectively. URMP, TK was most significant factor, explaining over 55.9% diversity. These findings indicate karst leads simplification composition reduction This process also alters environmental highlight need careful management strategies park development mitigate loss maintain health, which are crucial sustainability ecosystems.

Understanding the characteristics of urban plant multidimensional diversity and green spaces (UGSs) landscape patterns is central theme ecology, providing theoretical support for UGSs management biodiversity conservation. Taking Changchun, a provincial city, as an example, total 240 plots were surveyed using stratified random sampling method. We studied effects park construction period on diversities, spaces, their associations in Changchun City, Northeast China. The results indicated that woody species tree attributes both highest 2001–2020 lowest before 1940. However, shrub completely opposite. Diameter at breast height (DBH) index (Hd) was 1940 2001–2020. (Hh) showed opposite trend. Phylogenetic structures divergent parks constructed 1940–2000 period, while could not be determined. In contrast, phylogenetic structure clustered across all periods. Landscape pattern metrics varied significantly among different Total Area (TA) structural equation model (SEM) revealed periods exerted significant direct diversities spaces. Specifically, indirectly affected through influenced species’ diversity. What more, Patch Density (PD), Edge (ED), Aggregation Index (AI) correlated with Hh, which had effect Shannon–Wiener (H′t). Overall, can enhanced regulating patterns, rationally selecting species, optimizing configuration. These above provide scientific references configuration communities selection parks, offer important guidance conservation enhancement.

Climate change is reshaping urban environments, intensifying the need for resilient green space design and management that supports biodiversity, improves ecosystem services, adapts to changing conditions. Understanding trade-offs between native non-native species selection important developing climate-resilient spaces. This review examines public preferences versus plant their implications management. We critically analyse services biodiversity benefits provided by both plants in spaces, highlighting complex involved. Our findings indicate while can be underrepresented landscapes, they offer significant ecological including support local wildlife pollinators. Some studies have highlighted climate resilience of plants; however, are likely more affected change. Therefore, conservation strategies needed, especially endemic threatened species. Several suggest a flexible approach integrates from diverse climatic origins improve resilience. also explore gardening (CG) as socio-ecological strategy integrate endangered into promoting stresses importance informed community involvement creating

Land cover analysis is a key method used to understand past land use patterns and explore the driving forces processes behind them. This study focuses on in 18 counties cities of Hainan Island, delving into factors specific areas including southern, northern, eastern, western, inland, coastal regions. The effects socio-economic factors, landscape pattern, urban functional units are considered, three hypotheses proposed explain observed trends. results indicate that house prices positively correlated with construction area, woodlands land, green space, thereby supporting luxury effect hypothesis cover. In addition, age was negatively confirming role inverse legacy Other relationships between emphasized importance planning. These will help decision-makers managers better current drivers cover, allowing for more scientific basis when planning managing
