In recent years, the accelerated pace of urbanization has increased patch fragmentation, which had a certain impact on structure and ecological environment forest–grass networks, protection measures have been taken in various regions. Therefore, studying spatiotemporal changes correlations service functions networks can help to better grasp landscape function. This paper takes Wuding River Basin as research area uses windbreak sand fixation capacity index, soil conservation capacity, net primary productivity (NPP) evaluate from three dimensions fixation, conservation, carbon sequestration. The Regional Sustainability Environment Index (RSEI) is used extract source areas, GIS spatial analysis minimum cumulative resistance (MCR) model are potential corridors. Referring complex network theory, topology metrics such degree distribution clustering coefficient calculated, their correlation with explored. results show that overall sequestration 2020 compared 2000, flow at northern northwest boundaries river basin enhanced, but there still shortcomings fragmented nodes, low clustering, poor connectivity. terms between indicators functions, index strongest largest grasp, while eigencentrality grasp. NPP other not obvious, its eccentricity relatively large.

Introduction: With the increasing fragmentation of landscapes caused by rapid urbanisation, constructing ecological networks strengthen connectivity between fragmented habitat patches. As capital China, Beijing has a development, resulting in serious landscape fragmentation, and needing an urgent demand for this study to improve network system. Methods: In study, we choose elevation, slope, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index land use data 2020 as use. Morphological spatial pattern analysis (MSPA) was used identify source areas Beijing, Minimal cumulative resistance (MCR) gravity models were construct network, stepping stones it. Results: The core area had highest proportion (96.17%) all types, forest accounting 82.01% thereof. Ten identified areas. Forty-five corridors (8 major 37 ordinary) constructed. are mainly concentrated middle eastern regions where mobility is limited. Constructing would help uphold region’s service functions ecosystem balance. Twenty-nine 32 obstacles create optimised consisting 171. Discussion: results provide model reference sustainable development environments high-density urban

The establishment of the Sanjiangyuan National Park (SNP) system indicates a higher requirement for refining management practices, especially protecting ecological barrier (EBS) that supports national security and biodiversity. However, it is still understudied how planners can identify key areas maintaining EBS in addition to functional zoning. This study took SNP as an example built comprehensive analytical framework, including fragmentation analysis, landscape morphology connectivity analysis based on graph theory. found patches Lancang River Source sub-park are relatively complete, while those Yangtze Yellow more fragmented according different indicators. then identified nodes edges sources EBS. These located mostly near core zones habitat patches. Furthermore, analyzed using two indicators DN (degree nodes) dIIC (the delta integral index connectivity), which respectively quantify number neighbors its impact whole connecting Last, with dense corridors suggesting protection areas.

The advancement of urbanization has led to a decline in the ecological function and environmental quality cities, seriously reducing services sustainable development capacity urban ecosystems. construction National Forest Urban Agglomeration China is conducive alleviating problems brought about by rapid promoting development. A time series analysis network changes can quickly effectively explore spatial patterns over time. Identifying protection restoration areas agglomerations an important way promote ecosystem optimize networks. This paper takes Pearl River Delta forest agglomeration as research area, uses multi-source remote sensing data from 2000 2020 (every 5 years), identifies sources based on morphological pattern (MSPA) method, generates corridors minimum cumulative resistance (MCR) model, constructs region, analyzes evolution process results indicate that time, core green area first decreased then increased, complexity increased. main reason early 21st century severe fragmentation. Under promotion national construction, was restored 2015 2020. region this confirms effectiveness agglomerations, providing scientific reference for identification networks optimization agglomerations.
