Urbanization is a key factor that threatens the stability of ecosystem services (ESs), which are crucial for maintaining ecological security and enhancing human quality life. Gaining insight into spatiotemporal differentiation service value (ESV) its coupling relationship with urbanization issue in promoting sustainable regional development. We employed various algorithms, including improved equivalence method, random forest model, mixed geographically temporally weighted regression coordination degree (CCD) to reveal evolution ESV driving mechanisms Lanzhou-Xining urban agglomeration (LXUA) from 1980 2020. In addition, we explored between combined index (CUI). The results showed following: (1) From 2020, interannual variation first decreased then increased, an increase 230 million yuan/annum 2020 compared 1980. Spatially, exhibits distribution pattern high south low north, west east. (2) Land use intensity (LUI) elevation contributed values exceeding 20% were most important drivers ESV. (3) average CCD CUI transitioned being severely unbalanced (0.19) slightly balanced (0.42). There was negative spatial correlation CUI, each cluster type distributed discretely space. Our study emphasizes areas characterized by robust integrity ESV, LUI constitutes main reason decline findings this can provide scientific basis coordinated development ESVs LXUA other cities.

Exploring the Driving Forces of Ecosystem Services in the Yangtze River Basin, China

Land, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 14(2), С. 411 - 411

Опубликована: Фев. 16, 2025

Ecosystem services (ESs) are increasingly recognized as critical to sustainable development and human well-being frequently used indicators in environmental governance policies. However, existing studies mostly assess the performance of isolated single ESs, ignoring management data needs local governments for comprehensive gate-keeping easy monitoring regional ecosystems, lacking holistic ESs. To address these shortcomings, this study assessed spatial changes five main ESs Yangtze River basin (YTRB) China by creating a indicator (CESI) using multi-source data, introduced hotspot analyses econometric models explore driving forces CESI. Results showed that during period, CESI YTRB increased from 0.44 2000 0.47 2020. High-value areas were mainly concentrated hilly mountainous regions, whereas low-value predominantly situated plain areas. From 2020, hot spots primarily located middle lower reaches YTRB. Conversely, cold upper The regression analysis revealed significant negative association between socioeconomic factors CESI, while positive natural background Of factors, average precipitation has largest effect on with each 1% increase resulting up 0.369% In contrast, GDP density had greatest impact triggering reduction 6.210%. findings suggest which integrates multiple can effectively simplify difficulty ecological regulation. mechanism indicates protection policies, when combined conditions intensity activities region, would be more coherent varying regulatory intensities.

Spatiotemporal Patterns and Interconnections of Forest Biomass and Economic Density in the Yellow River Basin, China

Forests, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 16(2), С. 358 - 358

Опубликована: Фев. 17, 2025

Forests are among the most diverse ecosystems on planet, and their biomass serves as a key measure for assessing biological productivity carbon cycle of terrestrial forest ecosystems. Recognizing factors that impact is essential health developing effective conservation strategies to preserve species diversity ecological equilibrium. This study considered explained variable, economic density explanatory human activities, land use, forestland protection control variables. Panel data encompassing 448 counties within Yellow River Basin (YRB) years 2008, 2013, 2018 were utilized inputs ArcGIS spatial analysis two-way fixed-effects modeling. approach aimed evaluate socio-economic biomass. The findings indicate that, (1) from both temporal viewpoints, distribution in upper reaches demonstrated an improvement over period 2008 2018. Notably, there was significant reduction middle lower sections, although levels remained substantially above average those regions. Throughout 2018, overall YRB displayed pattern, with elevated observed western areas diminished eastern (2) A one-unit increase led 1.002% In YRB, positive correlation between biomass, especially river. (3) upstream region, strongly negatively correlated cultivated but significantly positively protection. reaches, population growth arable expansion decrease primary industry development urbanization promoted growth. industries other than planting, such forestry industry, can contribute Moreover, downstream area, strong negative number permanent residents We recommend modifications activities enhance ecosystem stability.

Study on the Trade-Off and Synergy Between Agricultural Water–Soil Matching and Ecosystem Service Value in the Tailan River Irrigation District of Xinjiang

Sustainability, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 17(9), С. 4173 - 4173

Опубликована: Май 5, 2025

Xinjiang is located in an inland arid area, and it faces significant challenges water resource supply demand, with a fragile ecological environment. Exploring the internal relationship between time–space distribution of agricultural water–soil matching evolution ecosystem service value (ESV) Tailan River Irrigation District from 2000 to 2020, this study provides theoretical guidance for balance resources healthy sustainable development environment irrigation district. By integrating coefficient equivalent factor method, spatiotemporal ESV under change land use (LU) district are analyzed. Based on Pearson correlation, trade-off synergy two explored. The results show that following occurred past 20 years: (1) Grassland dryland categories biggest transfer-out transfer-in areas District, conversion mostly Jiamu Town Guleawati Township. (2) area reclamation rate increased gradually, among which highest was 85.93% Kezile lowest 76.37% average Gini 0.118, absolutely fair. (3) has consumption, but always fluctuates best worst. consumption Communist Youth League lowest, remained many years.

Revealing the Spatiotemporal Changes in Land Use and Landscape Patterns and Their Effects on Ecosystem Services: A Case Study in the Western Sichuan Urban Agglomeration, China

Land, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 14(5), С. 1012 - 1012

Опубликована: Май 7, 2025

Land use change significantly influences landscape pattern adjustments, thereby altering ecosystem functions and service flows, ultimately impacting value (ESV). However, previous studies have often examined the impacts of land patterns on services from a one-dimensional perspective, overlooking complex interactions among these factors. This study proposes “process–structure–value” response framework applies it to case western Sichuan urban agglomeration. Its aim is identify spatial temporal characteristics evolution. Additionally, quantitatively evaluates synergistic effects changes ESV evolution 2000 2020 using correlation analysis. The results show that, over past 20 years, area experienced significant expansion construction by 184,729.41 hm2, leading dispersion fragmentation arable land, grassland, waters, resulting in an overall trend diversification patterns. increased CNY 2.619 billion, primarily due associated with forest waters. found that processes structures enhanced ESV. transition waters notably improved Meanwhile, diversity patch connectivity further function. Furthermore, ecological environment remained vulnerable despite Overall, highlight between processes, patterns, ESV, emphasizing necessity integrating future research comprehensively assess responses providing more comprehensive reference for planning policy development.
