Changes in land use patterns, types, and intensities significantly impact ecosystem services. This study follows the time series logic from history to expected future investigate spatial temporal characteristics of changes Ezhou their potential impacts on services value (ESV). The results show that Markov–FLUS model has strong applicability predicting pattern use, with a Kappa coefficient 0.9433 FoM 0.1080. Between 2000 2020, construction expanded continuously, while water area remained relatively stable, other types experienced varying degrees contraction. Notably, compared 2000, it by 70.99% 2020. Moreover, watershed 9.30% 2010, but there was very little change following 10 years. Under three scenarios, significant differences were observed City, driven human activities, particularly expansion land. In inertial development scenario, 313.39 km2 2030, representing 38.30% increase Conversely, under farmland protection increased 237.66 km2, 4.89% rise However, ecological priority 253.59 10.13% Compared ESV losses inertia scenarios USD 4497.71 1072.23, respectively, 2030. scenario 2749.09, emphasizing importance prioritizing City’s development. may provide new clues for formulation regional strategies sustainable restoration.

Rapid urbanization worldwide offers numerous benefits but also introduces challenges, particularly concerning urban climate comfort, which affects the physical and social well-being in cities. This study examined microclimatic characteristics of Burç neighborhood historical core Burdur city, using ENVI-Met models with temperature, relative humidity, wind PET data collected over a 33,665 m2 area at 06:00, 09:00, 12:00, 15:00, 18:00 21:00 on 15 August 2023. The analysis revealed that thermal comfort decreases significantly from 09:00 onwards, especially hard surfaces like asphalt, concrete parquet, lack vegetation intensify heat retention. By contrast, green areas were found to enhance bioclimatic by reducing perceived temperatures up 20% shaded vegetated zones. Based these findings, it is recommended reduce heat-absorbing materials, such as asphalt prioritize spaces landscape planning improve create more sustainable environments.

As global climate change intensifies, its impact on the ecological environment is becoming increasingly pronounced. Among these, land surface temperature (LST) and vegetation cover status, as key indicators, have garnered widespread attention. This study analyzes spatiotemporal dynamics of LST Kernel Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (KNDVI) in 11 provinces along Yangtze River their response to based MODIS Terra satellite data from 2000 2020. The linear regression showed a significant KNDVI increase 0.003/year (p < 0.05) rise 0.065 °C/year 0.01). Principal Component Analysis (PCA) explained 74.5% variance, highlighting dominant influence urbanization. K-means clustering identified three regional patterns, with Shanghai forming distinct group due low variability. Generalized Additive Model (GAM) analysis revealed nonlinear LST–KNDVI relationship, most evident Hunan, where cooling effects weakened beyond threshold 0.25. Despite 0.07 increase, high-temperature areas Chongqing Jiangsu expanded by over 2500 km2, indicating limited mitigation. reveals complex interaction between KNDVI, which may provide scientific basis for development management adaptation strategies.

This study examined the impact of sea surface temperature (SST) on urban across four cities located in three different countries (United States America, Japan, and Morocco), all at nearly same latitude, focusing summer season over period from 2003 to 2020, because previously no one attempted analyze SST land (LST). Data were acquired Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) for LST evaluate correlation between SST, trends time, relationship areas LST. The novelty this lies its being first investigate based a city’s proximity warm cold ocean currents. findings revealed positive analyzed (San Francisco, Tangier, Tokyo, Atlantic City), some instances significant was observed 95% confidence level, but still significance is range weak moderate. Specifically, found that during both daytime nighttime, Tangier exhibited decreasing trend (99% level) SST. On contrary, San Francisco displayed an increasing daytime, while continued rise, showed trend. Further analysis differentiated influenced by currents (Tokyo City) those affected Tangier). In current, there despite increased Conversely, City, also currents, daytime. At Tokyo City Additionally, explored LST, finding contrast, Tangier) negative Overall, research highlights complex interplay temperatures, demonstrating how urbanization can influence differently similar latitudes.
