The Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau (QTP) is a critical ecological security barrier for China, playing an indispensable role in ecosystem services (ESs). However, comprehensive assessments of the ecological barrier functions o...

Ecological security (ES) is a crucial indicator of regional ecosystem health and integrity, serving as a fundamental basis for formulating sustainable ecological management strategies, particularly in ecologically fragil...

Urban microclimate are localized climatic conditions within urban areas that are shaped by the buildings, population density, land cover, and vegetation, and that differ significantly from surrounding rural contexts. The...

In the ecologically fragile karst region of Hechi City, Guangxi, unique landforms and human activities have increased demand for multiple ecosystem services (ES), degrading ecological functions, weakening ecological netw...

Soil is a living, finite resource that shapes chemical fate, microbial ecology, nutrient supply, and climate regulation, yet environmental science and policy often treat it as an inert substrate. Approximately one-third ...

Abstract The process of industrialization of arid areas can rapidly surpass the pace of environmental monitoring, which leaves a gap in the knowledge of long-term processes of soil degradation. Although conventional moni...
