Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ecosystem services (ES) play a crucial role in sustainable development. We systematically assessed the spatial and temporal dynamics of ecosystem service supply (ES‐s) and demand (ES‐d) in China from 1990 to 2020 by using a supply–demand matrix integrated with land use/cover data. The findings indicate that in 2020, grasslands accounted for 28.
