“…Zhoushan Archipelago is the gateway to East China and is located in Zhejiang Province, facing the Pacific Ocean, bordered by Shanghai, Hangzhou, and Ningbo [36]. In the context of rapid urbanization, it is bound to affect the ecosystem health of Zhoushan Archipelago in the face of a sharp increase in construction land, an accelerated nonagricultural transformation of cultivated land, a rapid decrease in tidal flats and wetlands, and an increasingly deteriorating environment [4,37].…”

Due to the rapid rise of China’s coastal economic zone, the urbanization of the surrounding islands has accelerated. Intensive disturbance caused by human activities and frequent changes in land types have resulted in the continuous erosion of ecological sources and the degradation of ecosystem services on the islands year by year. It is particularly important to explore sustainable development strategies for the islands to achieve a balance between conservation and development, which is particularly important for the islands in the process of urbanization. Taking Zhoushan Archipelago as an example, this paper uses multi-source spatial data and employs InVEST models and USLE to quantify island ecosystem services. Furthermore, using principal component analysis and cluster analysis, the study aims to identify clusters of island ecosystem services and investigate their tradeoffs, synergistic mechanisms, and regional heterogeneity using spatial analysis. In addition to providing island urban planners with effective zoning governance recommendations and assistance in spatial planning to promote coordinated and sustainable development, the findings of this study can assist in the development of appropriate management plans for each ecological functional service cluster on islands.

Based on the theories of industrial structure and settlement environment, this paper conducts a quantitative and qualitative study to investigate how the evolution in the industrial structure of the island affects the settlement environment with relevant statistical data, local chronicles, and questionnaire survey data. The study found that the industrial structure of Liuheng Island has transformed from a fishery-led to industry-led island, which has led to the rapid increase of urbanization on Liuheng Island, and the public service facilities have been increasingly densely distributed urban-type communities with high modernization levels, such as Longshan Community, Xuanzhuotou Community, and Taimen Community. The local residents of Liuheng Island are also satisfied with the public service facilities in terms of facility availability, transportation convenience, environmental comfort, and environmental health. For a period, the island residents were particularly concerned about the regional differences in environmental health, and the main reasons were the industrial structure upgrade towards industrialization, which would cause certain industrial waste emissions, and the pressure of commuting within the island, which would affect residents’ sense of security. This indicates that the evolution of industrial structure will directly affect the speed and quality of urban and rural settlement hardware construction and also, to a certain extent, the subjective perceptions of residents around the dense industrial areas on the state of the settlement, especially in terms of environmental health and community living safety.
