ABSTRACT Rapid urbanization has resulted in increasingly complex and diverse farmland landscape patterns mountainous areas. The southern margin of Sichuan Basin, noted for its prominent urban–rural‐nature gradient, serves as a typical area analyzing evolution. In this study, an identification system was developed to classify identify the typology evolution, including fallow (FF), abandonment (FA), loss (FL), reclamation (FR). Multiscale geographically weighted regression (MGWR) employed analyze drivers spatial differentiation mechanisms results revealed following. (1) areas FR (45.39%), FF (29.62%), FA (21.81%) region were relatively large, FL (3.17%) small. Compared with 2000–2010, increased, decreased from 2010 2020. (2) FL, FR, FA, presented similar during two periods. showed lower fragmentation lowland plain (LPA) compared mid‐high (MHMA). contrast, had higher LPA, while greater low hilly (LMHA); (3) pattern evolution exhibit clear urban‐rural‐nature gradients. From LPA MHMA, dominant typologies are sequentially FF‐FA. Concurrently, primary driving factors shift socioeconomic (urbanization policies) more natural (terrain ecological conservation). This study proposes integrated framework managing regions, considering regional policy trade‐offs synergies. It can guide sustainable use protection farmland, supporting rural revitalization agroecological sustainability.

Mediterranean mountains are sensitive agroecosystems that have suffered intense land use and cover changes (LULCC) during the last century. From middle of twentieth century, most cultivated lands in were abandoned, allowing recovery vegetation (through natural revegetation afforestation programmes). To examine effects farmland abandonment, secondary succession (natural revegetation) afforestation, an intensive soil sampling was carried out Araguás catchment (Central Spanish Pyrenees) including sparsely vegetated areas (badlands), grasslands, shrublands afforested sites. LULCC mapped, physico-chemical properties analysed reference sites (unaltered centuries) different uses. Likewise, organic carbon (SOC) content bulk soils fractions separated by density fractionation been studied. This study evidenced abandonment led to a mosaic landscape with covers. Results show significantly affect (soil texture, stoniness, pH, SOC, total carbon, CorgN ratio, field capacity). Significant differences observed between following abandonment. Afforestation triggered higher SOC than shrubland (1.4 1.1% respectively), suggesting slower process matter accumulation after compared afforestation. The significant role grassland for enhancing has also confirmed. results showed relative contribution each fraction SOC: amount labile (free occluded fractions) is (58.1 51.2% respectively) (36.8%).

Accurate cropland information is critical for agricultural planning and production, especially in food-stressed countries like China. Although widely used medium-to-high-resolution satellite-based maps have been developed from various remotely sensed data sources over the past few decades, considerable discrepancies exist among these products both total area spatial distribution of croplands, impeding further applications datasets. The factors influencing their inconsistency are also unknown. In this study, we evaluated consistency accuracy six China circa 2020, including three state-of-the-art 10-m (i.e., Google Dynamic World, ESRI Land Cover, ESA WorldCover) 30-m ones GLC_FCS30, GlobeLand 30, CLCD). We investigated effects landscape fragmentation, climate, management. Validation using a ground-truth sample revealed that 10-m-resolution WorldCover provided highest (92.3%). These collectively overestimated Chinese by up to 56%. Up 37% land showed maps, concentrated mainly mountainous regions attributed varying fragmentation management practices such as irrigation. Our work shed light on promotion future mapping efforts, highly inconsistent regions.

Owing to rocky desertification, farmland abandonment in karst areas is different from that normal landforms. Aiming at the phenomenon of large-scale region Southwest China, this study investigated characteristics desertification control typical counties. We interpreted land use changes area using high-resolution images (5 m) 2010 and 2020 through human–computer interaction. After removing patches converted forests, we extracted spatial distribution abandoned farmland. The was found have a high rate (24.83 %), with dryland showing 2–3 times higher than paddy fields. accounts for 50.57 % (499.04 km2) dryland. It worth noting non-rocky lowest (22.45 while shows no significant difference among other grades, an average 28.00 %. In addition, change level, index degree showed trend initial increase followed by decrease. Slope, lithology soil type joint effect on abandonment. Slope core factor affecting abandonment, interaction between slope dominant its change. results show serious areas, primarily occurring government should take targeted management measures based current status drylands levels especially sloping areas.

Effective soil organic carbon (SOC) management can mitigate the impact of climate warming. However, response different SOC fractions to warming in abandoned croplands remains unclear. Here, categorizing into particulate and mineral-associated (POC MAOC) with physical fractionation, we investigate responses POC MAOC content temperature sensitivity (Q10) through a 3-year situ experiment (+1.6 °C) across 12 sites China (latitude: 22.33–46.58°N). Our results indicate that unchanged while significantly increases under changes are mainly influenced by root biomass microbial necromass changes, respectively. The Q10 is lower than regardless or control treatment, suggesting represents most persistent least vulnerable fraction within SOC. Collectively, sequestration stable be enhanced short-term Natural recovery generally benefits accrual croplands, but on this ecosystem authors showed enhances these lands.

Land ecological security (LES) is crucial for human well-being and sustainable development, especially in areas like the Lower Yellow River Flood Plain (LYRFP), which faces flood threats, economic challenges, fragility. This study introduces a "Quality-Structure-Function" framework evaluating LYRFP's LES, incorporating baselines impacts of land use changes on comprehensive assessment. Using Optimal Parameter Geographic Detector (OPGD) model, we analyzed agricultural, industrial, socio-economic factors as potential LES drivers. The findings indicate gradual improvement over past two decades, with spatial variations—higher upstream estuarine lower middle. Significant enhancements post-2010 were observed Shandong Province, unlike modest gains Henan. Spatial heterogeneity was evident across floodplain segments, Jitai Beach witnessing most decline, Dongying improvement, Zhengkai largest internal disparities. Economic growth reduced agricultural activities positively impacted while population growth-related contributed to its decline. suggested safety improvements LYRFP by considering spatiotemporal influencing regional protection development.
