Analysis reveals supply-demand mismatches in ecosystem services in Xingtai, with urbanization impacting soil retention and carbon sequestration.

This study aims to analyze the supply-demand relationships of ecosystem services in resource-based cities.
Examined ecosystem services in Xingtai, China, from 2000 to 2020.
Utilized ecosystem service bundle theory to identify supply-demand relationships.
Employed redundancy analysis (RDA) and geographically and temporally weighted regression (GTWR) models.
Identified a supply gradient, with high supply in western Taihang Mountains and low supply in urbanized eastern plains.
Demand patterns showed higher urban needs for cooling and PM2.5 removal.
Found supply-demand imbalances, with undersupply of soil retention and carbon sequestration in urban areas.

Wang et al. (2025) studied this question.
