“…In recent years, the government acknowledged the importance of the development and utilization of marine resources in this area [15]. Zhoushan is focused on cultivating and developing marine industry as the center of marine economy development with the Zhoushan Archipelago New Area designated as a state-level economic reform pioneer zone in the national strategy [15,16]. The rapid development of the economy caused the increase in household and industrial waste that degrades the environment.…”

Rapid development of the economy increased marine litter around Zhoushan Island. Social-ecological scenario studies can help to develop strategies to adapt to such change. To investigate the present situation of marine litter pollution, a stratified random sampling (StRS) method was applied to survey the distribution of marine coastal litters around Zhoushan Island. A univariate analysis of variance was conducted to access the amount of litter in different landforms that include mudflats, artificial and rocky beaches. In addition, two questionnaires were designed for local fishermen and tourists to provide social scenarios. The results showed that the distribution of litter in different landforms was significantly different, while the distribution of litter in different sampling points had no significant difference. The StRS survey showed to be a valuable method for giving a relative overview of beach litter around Zhoushan Island with less effort in a future survey. The questionnaire feedbacks helped to understand the source of marine litter and showed the impact on the local environment and economy. Based on the social-ecological scenarios, governance recommendations were provided in this paper.

“…Population explosion and related infrastructure development are very common phenomena in urban area, which changes the LULC pattern (Gao et al, 2017). As a result, natural ecosystems are transformed to human-nature ecosystems, and destroy the ecosystem structureand functions (Shao et al, 2017;Wang et al, 2017). The environmental sustainability and regenerating capacity are under great threats due to loss of water bodies and vegetation cover within urban space (Keshtkar et al, 2017).…”

The structural strength and functional diversity of ecosystems were maintained by natural process, where the living organisms interact with their physical environment and exchange materials between them. Land use and land cover change exert signi cant impact on ecosystem services and their values, especially in the urban agglomerations. Kolkata urban agglomeration of India has been selected to determine the causes in changes of ecosystem services under present and projected land use land cover scenario. Land use land cover maps of 1990, 2000, 2010 and 2020 were prepared by support vector machine method, using LANDSAT satellite imageries and projected maps were produced with the help of CA-Markov model. Built-up land was increased by 65.39% during 1990-2020 and it will be increased by 76.88% during the period 1990-2040. Built-up lands are mainly encroaching crop lands and wetlands. The ecosystem service value will be decreased from $38486.49 during 1990 to $28060.79 during 2040. The rate of change of ecosystem service value was -27.09% during the same period. In Kolkata urban agglomeration, area under very low ecosystem service value will be increased from 16.60 to 58.88% during 1990-2040; whereas, the area coverage of very high ecosystem service value will be decreased from 2.69 to 2.35% during the same period. Water supply contributed highest ecosystem service value followed by disturbance regulation and nutrient cycling; whereas, lacking in soil formation, pollination and biological control services contributed lowest. The study will contribute for decision making process in sustainable management of natural resources and also provide some useful guidelines for the improvement of ecological quality in the study landscape.

“…The research object of ESV can be a single landscape unit including forest [15], island [16], basin [17], and even an administrative scope, such as a specific city [18] or regions [19][20][21] of different scales. In 1997, Costanza [22] systematically assessed the functional value of global ecosystem services.…”

Monitoring and Assessing Land Use/Cover Change and Ecosystem Service Value Using Multi-Resolution Remote Sensing Data at Urban Ecological Zone

et al. 2022

An urban ecological zone (UEZ) is an important part of a city, focusing on environmental conservation and ecological economic development simultaneously. During the past decade, the urban scale of Xi’an city in China has been expanding, and the population has been increasing rapidly. This dramatic change is a huge challenge to urban sustainability. It puts forward higher requirements for the construction of an UEZ. Under different spatial resolution scales, this study adopted Landsat8-OLI and gaofen-2 (GF-2) satellite high-resolution remote sensing data to interpret the land use/cover change (LUCC) of the Weihe River UEZ. The ecosystem service value (ESV) was assessed, and the ecological effect was analyzed based on LUCC. The results showed that the spatial distribution of land types in the Weihe River UEZ changed significantly from 2014 to 2020. The construction land gathered to the southeast. Especially, the vegetative land (i.e., forestland, grassland and other green land) and water body showed a slightly increasing trend since the official establishment of the UEZ in 2018. The cultivated land area gradually reduced, and the vegetative land area tended to be concentrated as well as expanded. Through the interpretation of GF-2 remote sensing data, the ESV at the Weihe River UEZ showed a downward trend in general. The high-value areas were mainly distributed in the Weihe River and its surrounding beach areas, which were greatly affected by river water scope. Construction land normally had low ESV, and it was affected by human activities obviously. Therefore, the development of urban construction had significant impacts on the Weihe River UEZ.
