Spatial Pattern and Formation Mechanism of Rural Tourism Resources in China: Evidence from 1470 National Leisure Villages

ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 11(8), С. 455 - 455

Опубликована: Авг. 20, 2022

Rural tourism development has been an essential driving force behind China’s promotion of integrated urban–rural development, sustainable rural and revitalization in the new era. This study included 1470 villages on national list beautiful leisure China (BLVCs) from 2010 to 2021. We explored distribution characteristics influencing factors based mathematical statistics spatial analysis ArcGIS provide a theoretical reference for promoting village agriculture tourism. The results show that BLVC presents clustered state, showing pattern dual core, seven centers multiple scattered points. BLVCs are mainly distributed areas with flat terrain sufficient water resources, which conducive agricultural production life. Having convenient transportation rich resources aids development. resulting gap regional is balanced some extent by government support. research value future optimization paper summarizes law clarifies tourism, it provides Chinese experience as model renaissance empowered

Mental health value of parks in China

Biological Conservation, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 284, С. 110159 - 110159

Biological conservation relies on protected areas, which need funding for acquisition and management. Economic valuation of ecosystem services contributes political economic support government budget allocations. One politically powerful cultural service is improved mental health park visitors, known as value or HSV. Previous HSV estimates were extrapolated from a single country, Australia. Here we provide more precise global estimate by: focussing China the largest newly-industrialised economy; comparing across 25 parks throughout China, using Personal Wellbeing Index, PWI; measuring PWI at representative heavily-visited Shennongjia National Park, gateway counterpart. We calculated ΔPWI function visit rate, controlled socioeconomic, demographic physical factors. This yielded ΔPWI∼2.75 % in Published data show that: population 1.4 billion; proportion visiting 32 (cf ∼70 developed nations); mean national financial per quality-adjusted life-year US$63,500 ∼US$200,000). Parks thus US$0.78 trillion annum. Scaling up to include India, Brazil Russia, total bloc US$1.13 annum, ∼5 GDP. Including previous nations, where ∼8 GDP, yields new US$ 5.1 ± 2.0 6 substantially than estimates. For local applications, next step will be scale down individual parks, ecosystems, species.

Planetary health and its relevance in the modern era: A topical review

SAGE Open Medicine, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 12

Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2024

Planetary health is a relatively new concept that has gained traction in recent years due to the urgent need address of our planet and its inhabitants. It refers interdependent both humans environment, recognizing two are inseparable one intricately linked other. This article aims advocate changes how care for environment envisaged, aligned with sustainable development goals using ethically sound, solution-oriented, practical approaches education. Rapid industrialization, urbanization, population growth led environmental degradation climate change this era. These factors have profound implications human health, World Health Organization estimating 23% global deaths factors. Climate extreme weather events exacerbating existing problems. Air pollution, water toxic chemicals additional add it lead issues, including non-communicable diseases death. A collaborative interdisciplinary approach needed planetary challenges, working across sectors investing research understand better complex interactions between environment. By promoting protecting planet’s inhabitants, we can ensure healthy future generations.

The relative importance of COVID‐19 pandemic impacts on biodiversity conservation globally

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an enormous impact on almost all aspects of human society and endeavor; the natural world its conservation have not been spared. Through a process expert consultation, we identified categorized, into 19 themes 70 subthemes, ways in which biodiversity or could be affected by globally. Nearly 60% effects broadly negative. Subsequently, created compendium each with explanatory text, August 2020 diverse group experienced conservationists expertise from across sectors geographies assessed subtheme for likely 9 subthemes ranked highest negative impact. These were, rank order, governments sidelining environment during their economic recovery, reduced wildlife-based tourism income, increased habitat destruction, government funding, plastic other solid waste pollution, weakening nature-friendly regulations enforcement, illegal harvest wild animals, philanthropy, threats to survival organizations. In combination, these impacts present worrying future but capacity counter them. ranking positive impact, at 10, was beneficial wildlife-trade restrictions. More optimistically, among 11-20, 6 were 4 We hope our assessment will draw attention and, thus, improve community's ability respond such future.La pandemia de ha tenido un impacto enorme sobre casi todos los aspectos la sociedad humana y sus proyectos; el mundo su conservación no han sido excepción.

Linking animal behavior to ecosystem change in disturbed environments

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 10

Опубликована: Июль 14, 2022

Environmental disturbances often cause individuals to change their behavior. The behavioral responses can induce a chain of reactions through the network species interactions, via consumptive and trait mediated connections. Given that interactions define ecosystem structure functioning, changes these have ecological repercussions. Here, we explore transmission how influence conditions. We describe underlying mechanisms ultimate impact on including biodiversity ecosystems stability services. explain why some larger than others ecosystems, research should focus interactions. With work, synthesize existing theory empirical evidence provide conceptual framework links behavior altered community dynamics, processes. Considering link deeper understanding causes consequences improve our knowledge pathways which human activities alter ecosystems. This ability predict effects ongoing communities decide interventions needed mitigate negative effects.
