Land Degradation and Development, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Март 23, 2025

ABSTRACT Assessing hydrological connectivity is crucial for maintaining the health and integrity of wetland river‐lake ecosystems in arid regions as it plays a key role watershed ecological balance sustainable development. We utilized Joint Research Center's global surface water dataset. combined these data with indices circuit theory to analyze spatiotemporal evolution Xinjiang from 2000 2020. determined that an increase area generally enhances regional connectivity. However, fragmentation bodies may affect quality potential by increasing number connecting pathways. The expansion patches alter their connectivity, near large catchment areas often serving critical connection points. Additionally, we found impacts climate change human activities led corridors 427 527 2020, surrounding pinch points barrier showing trends. This study provides new evidence 2020 identifies priority protecting enhancing network Our results provide scientific basis optimizing conservation framework networks Xinjiang, aquatic ecosystems, accelerating environmental restoration networks.

Spatio-temporal pattern change of LULC and its response to climate in the Loess Plateau, China

Research Square (Research Square), Год журнала: 2024, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Апрель 18, 2024

Exploring LULC change is essential for the sustainable development of ecologically fragile areas. This study based on transfer matrix and land use dynamicity, combined with data meteorological LP from 1980 to 2020, explore spatio-temporal characteristics its response climate in LP. The results indicated that overall was characterized by a decrease area cropland, grassland bare land, an increase woodland build-up trend had obvious stage around 2000. 2000 2020 more drastic than comprehensive utilization degree increases. impacts human activities LUCC Loess Plateau have regional differences. In southeast agricultural region, mainly affected activities, spatial distribution types constantly adjusted population growth economic development. central project returning cropland has great impact LULC. northwest arid vegetation sensitive temperature precipitation, significantly higher humid region.

Exploring land use/cover (LULC) change is essential for the sustainable development of ecologically fragile areas. The main objective this study was to clarify characteristics and differences in spatiotemporal changes LULC on Loess Plateau (LP) based transfer matrix use dynamics quantitatively describe impact natural factors using a geodetector. results indicated that overall LP characterized by decrease area cropland, grassland, bare land, an increase woodland built-up land. This trend shows clear phase-change characteristic around 2000. were primarily affected human activities southeastern agricultural region. project returning farmland forest grassland had great central Vegetation sensitive temperature precipitation, significantly higher than humid region northwest arid NDVI, PRE, TEM determined be contributors LP.

Spatial and temporal change of hydrological connectivity in the Wusuli River Basin

Journal of Hydrology Regional Studies, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 53, С. 101814 - 101814

Опубликована: Май 11, 2024

The study region of this paper is the Wusuli River basin, which comprised nine sub-basins. basin located on border between China and Russia. We investigated hydrological connectivity an international boundary river that has received little attention. spatial temporal evolution over last 38 years was characterized using a geostatistical function combined with remote sensing technique. In particular, some key sub-basins were identified to help strengthen China-Russian cooperation ecological protection basin. results show in northwestern unstable several surges from 1984 2021. Analyzed perspective, effective range expanding showing overall upward trend due increased fluctuations rainfall. right bank better than left influence topography. Stable pathways are must for efficient within watershed. Another finding capacity resist extreme rainfall weakening.
