Landscape Fragmentation Driven by Land Use Change Dominates the Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity of Non‐Point Source Pollution Loads in Human‐Intensive Basins: A Case Study of the Dongjiang River Basin, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Landscape fragmentation may influence the spatial distribution and temporal variation of non‐point source (NPS) pollution by altering hydrological processes, pollutant transport pathways, and ecosystem service functions. However, under the combined effects of natural factors (e.g., precipitation, topography) and anthropogenic factors (e.g ...

Assessing Land Use Conflict in the Yangtze River Middle Reaches Megalopolis for 2030: Integrating Landscape Pattern Analysis and Scenario Simulation to Address Uncontrolled and Severe Conflict Zones

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land use conflicts (LUCs) significantly impact regional food security and ecological security. Identifying LUCs helps cut down ecological risks. This study focuses on the Yangtze River Middle Reaches Megalopolis (YRMRM) as a case, employing a landscape pattern approach to construct a land use conflict measurement model.

Cropland Suitability–Use Mismatches and Differentiated Zoning Regulation in the North China Plain: Implications for Spatially Optimised and Sustainable Land Use

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cropland distribution is often shaped by historical cultivation patterns rather than natural suitability, leading to mismatches between actual land use and agricultural production potential. However, their extent and spatial characteristics remain insufficiently understood in the North China Plain, one of China's most important grain‐producing

Integrating Ecosystem Service Benefits to Assess Ecosystem Health and Its Response to Land Spatial Structure Conflicts in Anning River Basin, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land spatial structure conflicts (LSSC) weaken the actual benefits of ecosystem services by inducing trade‐offs among them, directly threatening regional ecosystem health (EH) and sustainable development. However, most studies have failed to incorporate ecosystem service benefits (ESB) into EH assessments and have overlooked their response to ...

Asymmetric Responses of Ecosystem Health to Urbanization in a Typical Karst City: Spatiotemporal Patterns and Driving Mechanisms in Guilin, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban expansion can substantially reshape ecosystem structure and functioning, especially in ecologically fragile Karst landscapes. Clarifying how ecosystem health (EH) responds to urbanization and identifying the factors that drive spatial variation in EH are important for regional sustainability.
