Land utilization transformation (LUT) is a key factor affecting ecosystem services (ESs). The urban agglomeration on the Northern Slope of Tianshan Mountains (UATM) located in typical arid region with extremely fragile ecological environment. However, impact LUT spatial pattern ESs over past 20 years not clear. This study aimed to explore characteristics UATM using land transfer matrix, information entropy, intensity, and dynamic degree. Various indexes were quantitatively measured Integrated Valuation Ecosystem Services Trade-offs (InVEST) model, effect was revealed through geographic detector auto-correlation analyses. results this led following conclusions: First, between 2000 2020, primary types arable land, grassland, bare significant cross-transformations occurring among these types. Meanwhile, showed marked differences different regions. changed rapidly significantly central region; contrast, slower slight changes observed northern southern Second, during research period, habitat maintenance, water yield carbon sequestration decreased, soil retention function increased. accelerated development second decade more rapid ESs. Finally, both structure intensity strongest explanatory capability for Different dimensions interactions Therefore, it advisable guide scientifically, promote vegetation restoration projects, alleviate impacts human activities climate change ESs, enhance safety environmental sustainability even regions Central Asia.

In recent years, global climate change and human alterations to land use have led a decrease in ecosystem services, making ecosystems more vulnerable. However, unlike the well-established risk assessment frameworks used natural disaster research, concept of ecological risks arising from changes is still its early stages, with nuances methodologies yet be clearly defined. This study proposes new framework for assessing resulting Tarim River Basin. The employs coupled PLUS Invest model evaluate under three development scenarios projected Basin Xinjiang by 2035. findings indicate that: (1) Between 2000 2020, predominant types were primarily unused land, followed grassland cropland. Conversely, grassland, water, construction relatively less prevalent. During this period, area cultivated increased, while forest water exhibited declining trend. Moving forward, 2020 2035, are characterized expansion cropland significant area, other categories demonstrate minor fluctuations.

The Yuanmou Basin a typical area southwestern region China, where issues such as soil erosion are pronounced, becoming one main factors restricting regional economic development. This study selected area, and, using land use data from 2000, 2010, 2020, constructed an LER assessment model based disturbance vulnerability. By integrating elevation topographic position index data, we examined spatiotemporal evolution under different gradients. results summarized follows: (1) From 2000 to types were mainly grassland, forest cropland. showed sharp increase cropland simultaneous decrease grassland indicating direction (2) Over span 20 years, average slightly increased, specifically manifesting significant reduction low areas, while medium lower risks saw increase. (3) spatial presents being periphery high center, with positive correlation, obvious aggregation, well “high-high” “low-low” clustering.
