The absence of an efficient and safe routes for the timely collection transportation domestic waste (DW) may have negative effects on environment public health. However, existing (CTR) based territorial management are not suitable special socio-ecological system agro-pastoral ecotone (APE). Therefore, it is crucial to develop a low-cost, high-efficiency, risk-free CTR mitigate threat DW environmental sustainability in APE Tibetan Plateau. This study selected Haidong as research case constructed sustainable optimization framework integrated perspective temporal, spatial eco-safety risk. We used improved Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) simulate optimal spatial-temporal routes, risk level was assessed by using Minimum Cumulative Resistance model (MCR). Results demonstrated that: (1) After optimized, total mileage economic cost savings were reduced 45.88% 8.37% respectively, frequency decreased 38.07%. Optimized more effective can better adapt dispersed pollution-producing characteristics residents APE. (2) There 7.04 % at high eco-safety, which required strengthening enhance control along while improving safety seal trucks. (3) cores adaptive change from current single-county administrative organization cross-county organization; adjust cycle characteristics; sort locally; cultivate awareness among farmers herdsmen. designed quantified new improve ecotone.

Urbanization, driven by rapid economic growth, has resulted in dramatic land use/cover change (LUCC), posing substantial risks to urban ecological security. While constructing networks is a productive strategy for achieving balance between protection and urbanization, the limited research conducted on impacts of LUCC spatial patterns during urbanization poses hindrance scientific construction networks. Therefore, this study focuses Jinan City, an important city situated downstream region Yellow River Basin, China. The utilized simulation approaches, including MSPA, MCR, InVEST model gravity model, investigate analyze City from 2000 2020.

Important for promoting the integrated protection and systematic management of mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes, grasslands, sandy areas, ecological networks form backbone regional security pattern. An improved morphological spatial pattern analysis coupled with a minimum cumulative resistance model (MSPA–MCR) based on multi-source data was used to study, provincial scale, Ningxia, an ecologically fragile region in upper reaches Yellow River China. The results show following: (1) A reasonable classification sources corridors is key constructing hierarchical networks.

Rapid urbanization has greatly altered urban ecological spaces and habitat quality functions, threatening regional biodiversity the sustainability of landscapes. Therefore, constructing a comprehensive network safety patterns is crucial for ecosystem management development. However, simple quantification networks fails to meet construction needs patterns, most studies focus solely on analysis, thus overlooking importance spatial analysis. This study proposes method assessment combined with hotspot analysis coupled standard deviational ellipse which not only satisfies quantitative but also adds methods, facilitating more patterns. Firstly, through morphological pattern (MSPA) landscape connectivity indices, source areas in main area Kunming were identified, integrating various resistance factors corrective construct an surface. The minimum cumulative (MCR) model was used identify potential corridors, their evaluated using gravity model, establishing network. Secondly, based structure assessed optimized. On this basis, constructed. results show following: core region 2402.28 km2, accounting 52.07% total area; there are 13 areas, totaling 2102.89 45.58% 178 including 15 level-one corridors 19 level-two corridors; 103 nodes, 70 “stepping stones”, 48 breakpoints identified.
