Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Territorial spatial optimization is a key strategy to promote long‐term regional sustainable development. Although ant colony optimization (ACO) is widely used in territorial spatial optimization, it is prone to local optima and offers limited integration of spatial suitability and regional heterogeneity. To address these problems, an adaptive
