Overview

Spatio-temporal analysis reveals changes in ecosystem services in Kashgar, highlighting critical thresholds and interactions.

Key Points

  • Ecosystem services in Kashgar show growth in supply and regulatory services, while support services experienced slight declines.
  • Key metrics reveal that after a NDVI of 0.35, habitat quality and carbon storage negatively impacted by land use intensity.
  • Restricted Cubic Splines were employed to quantify nonlinear changes and determine thresholds affecting ecosystem services.
  • Local imbalances emerged due to increased land development, stressing the need for careful resource management to maintain ecosystem stability.
