Assessing and Explaining Human–Nature Coordination at the County Scale in China: Combining an Interpretable Spatiotemporal Graph Neural Network and Difference‐In‐Differences

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coordinating high‐intensity human activities with fragile ecosystems remains a major challenge for global sustainability. Accurate assessment of human–nature coordination (HNC) is critical, yet county‐level variations, underlying drivers, and responses to ecological zoning have seldom been examined simultaneously within a unified framework. We

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

open access: yesLand 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.
