The alpine marsh wetlands in the Qilian Mountains of Qinghai (QMQ) are under constant threat from effects climate change and human activities. Identifying key ecological protection areas (KEPAs) is prerequisite for formulating strategies executing spatial planning programs. current study developed a novel method to identify KEPAs by following ecosystem pattern–characteristics–functions (EPCFs) combined source–ecological corridor–ecological node research paradigm. More specifically, an evaluation system resistance was constructed integrating drivers EPCFs wetlands. Additionally, wetland degradation disturbances were analyzed through incorporated with field survey. findings indicated following: (1) had total water yield approximately 3.96 × 108 m3. soil conservation rate habitat quality per unit area calculated be 52.92 t·hm−2·a−1 0.992, respectively, higher values observed on southern bank lower northern river QMQ. (2) covered extent 996.53 km2 QMQ, encompassing 40 sources, 39 corridors, nodes, predominantly located source regions. (3) restructured into framework comprising two axes, four belts, cores, multiple nodes In response factors contributing wetlands, adaptive measures including prioritizing natural restoration, modifying grazing strategies, restoration projects as minimum, designating protected have been recommended.

This study focuses on the Xiaoxing’an Mountains, examining evolution of ecological security patterns and suggesting optimization strategies by integrating carbon storage landscape connectivity, using multi-source data from 2000, 2010, 2020. The provides a comprehensive assessment region’s estimating stocks InVEST model, analyzing connectivity through MSPA, spatially extracting corridors nodes circuit theory. key findings are as follows: (1) High-value areas for primarily concentrated in southeastern northwestern forested mountain regions; (2) Ecological source predominantly southeast dispersed north, with total area peaking 2010 at 47,054.10 km2; (3) Northern dense, radiating spider-web pattern, pinch points corridor termini; sparse, mainly short, fewer points; (4) barriers increased 280% over past 20 years. Four major barrier zones were identified, all located junction forest farmland northwest, composed wetlands, drylands, rural residential areas; (5) Based evolutionary characteristics Security Pattern years, an “axis, two belts, four zones, multiple cores” planning framework was proposed, along corresponding strategies. theoretical support practical guidance enhancing regional network stability, optimizing strengthening sink functions.

Introduction Investigation of the evolutionary trend habitat quality in karst and rocky desertification zones is crucial for enhancing ecological security conservation. Methods Analysis land use statistics from years 2000, 2010, 2020, changes (HQ) (LULC) between 2000 2020 were analyzed using Huize County Yunnan Province as an example. The InVEST FLUS models applied to simulate LULC under different scenarios 2030 2040 assess spatial gradients at each timepoint factors influencing them. Results findings indicated that (1) predominant types are grassland woodland, experiencing most significant growth urbanized areas, main sources which paddy fields high-cover grassland. (2) was average displayed a consistent decline. distribution pattern indicates low HQ urban high outskirts, south-west, north-east. In all four scenarios, predominantly decreases areas regions with dense concentration built-up land. (3) Habitat primarily affected by type use, NDVI being secondary determinant. Discussion environment must be restored safeguarded focus on priorities harmonious development scenarios. This study provides methodological lessons ecorestoration policymakers karstic desertification.
