Overview

Spatial modeling demonstrates that paddy expansion enhances food production and soil conservation while reducing carbon storage and habitat quality, highlighting trade-offs in agricultural growth.

Key Points

To evaluate the spatial-temporal dynamics of ecosystem services resulting from paddy field expansion and identify the trade-offs and synergies among these services.
Applied the InVEST model to assess five ecosystem services (carbon storage, habitat quality, soil conservation, water yield, and food production) from 1990 to 2020.
Identified environmental drivers using the Optimal Parameter Geodetector and analyzed multiscale spatial trade-offs and synergies using correlation analysis and Geographically Weighted Regression.
Employed Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling to quantify the direct impacts of agricultural land-use changes on ecosystem services.
Paddy field area expanded by 12,998.41 km² (increasing from 5,775 km² in 1990 to 18,773.41 km² in 2020) while other land-use classes generally contracted.
Carbon storage and habitat quality exhibited an initial decline followed by recovery, whereas soil conservation, water yield, and food production experienced continuous increases.
Carbon storage demonstrated positive synergies with habitat quality and soil conservation, but showed distinct trade-offs with water yield and food production directly tied to paddy expansion.
