Coal mining has significantly degraded the ecological environment, and ecosystem structure of southern slopes Tianshan Mountains is complex, with drought, low rainfall, fragility increasing difficulty restoration. There are few studies on selection suitable pioneer species for restoration areas south slope Mountain. In this study, we investigated artificial vegetation in damaged nine representative coal mines Mountains. We categorized into three classes based elevation. Using a combination entropy weight method technique order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS), indicators such as diversity index cover were selected compare recovery area screen ecologically areas. The results show following: (1) Based TOPSIS findings, Run Hua mine, Da Wanqi Ke Xing mine highest-scoring among different types mines.

Manganese ore, as an important strategic metal resource for the country, was subject to unreasonable mining practices and outdated smelting technologies in early China, leading severe ecological damage areas. This study examines trends vegetation cover change historical manganese areas of Yongzhou under influence policy, providing technical references mitigating impact these legacy offering a basis adjusting mine restoration policies. paper takes area City, Hunan Province case selects multiple periods Landsat satellite images from 2000 2023. By calculating Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) Fractional Coverage (FVC), spatiotemporal changes driving factors coverage 2023 were analyzed. The analysis results show that, terms time, 2012, decreased 0.58 0.21, while 2013 2023, it gradually recovered 0.21 0.40. From spatial perspective, where artificial reclamation conducted, mainly mildly moderately degraded, no carried out, significant degradation observed. Mining activities primary anthropogenic force behind decrease coverage, effective protection projects proactive policy guidance main forces increase area.

(1) Background: Identifying ecological security patterns and restoring the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in Shandong is vital for future conservation maintaining ecosystem sustainability. (2) Methods: The study area was selected, InVEST3.9.0 model used to assess natural-environment services. An optimal evaluation approach based on Minimum Cumulative Resistance developed define pattern. (3) Results: There were 20 source areas lower east portions of area, mainly grasslands, forests, water areas. Additionally, 40 corridors, 48 pinch points, 75 barrier points generated, densely distributed east. divided into five core functional zones. (4) Conclusions: Establishing function zones considering landscape changes from high-frequency human activities spatial planning can lead a more reasonable division restoration Ecological zone construction enhance understanding implementing national land support goals.

Ecosystem degradation has become a significant global environmental issue. Particularly in the south hilly regions, necessity for ecological restoration is increasingly evident. This study takes Shiyan City Hubei Province as an example and adopts combination of extensive questionnaire surveys field interviews to deeply analyze farmers’ perceptions factors influencing ecosystem restoration. research fills gap current studies at local level. The results show that (1) farmers generally believe government policy support natural resource protection are crucial restoration, with average score 4.4, indicating strong willingness participate. (2) There positive relationship among human consciousness, social governance, regulation. Human consciousness not only directly enhances level governance but also promotes effectiveness regulation through governance. (3) impact between economic benefits green economy confirmed, requirement creates development opportunities farmers. emphasizes importance constructing multi-party participation strategy Policymakers should focus on education, support, incentives stimulate enthusiasm achieve sustainable management. provides theoretical basis practices offers important reference promoting regional development. By emphasizing win–win development, this new perspectives design implementation future policies.
