Tradeoffs and synergies between ecosystem services: A comparison of the karst and non-karst area
Journal of Mountain Science, 2020Under the influence of various natural and human factors, the relationship between the ecosystem services provided for human beings by a karst ecosystem is becoming increasingly complex, profoundly limiting the effective and sustainable development of the social economy and ecosystem protection in karst areas. Taking Guizhou, China as an example, which

Changes in ecosystem service values in karst areas of China
Agriculture, Ecosystems and Environment, 2020Abstract Karst ecosystem services (ESs), the key components of global terrestrial ESs, play a crucial role in human welfare and livelihood. However, the spatiotemporal changes of ecosystem service values (ESVs) in the karst areas of China remain unclear. In this paper, land use/land cover (LULC) data were used to estimate the ESVs changes during 1992–
