How do the surrounding areas of national parks work in the context of landscape fragmentation? A case study of 159 protected areas selected in 11 EU countries

Marta Kubacka et al.

Summary: This study assessed the dynamics of land use and land cover changes in the buffer zones of national parks in 11 European countries and found that high natural and landscape values in the surrounding areas affect the degree and rate of landscape fragmentation.

Assessing spatial-temporal heterogeneity of China's landscape fragmentation in 1980-2020

Lilin Zou et al.

Summary: Exploring the spatial-temporal heterogeneity of landscape fragmentation helps to understand the dynamic evolution of landscape patterns and the impacts of physical-geographical environment and human activities. This study proposed a Landscape Fragmentation Index (LFI) to assess the spatial-temporal heterogeneity of China's landscape fragmentation from 1980 to 2020. The results showed that landscape fragmentation metrics had distinct phased change characteristics, and China's LFI increased gradually during the study period. Additionally, the landscape fragmentation exhibited fluctuation features in certain spatial directions. This spatial-temporal heterogeneity indicated that landscape fragmentation was influenced by both the physical-geographical environment and human activities.

Impact of Roads on Environmental Protected Areas: Analysis and Comparison of Metrics for Assessing Habitat Fragmentation

Manuel Sanchez-Fernandez et al.

Summary: This study focuses on evaluating the effect of fragmentation caused by road infrastructures on a territory with unique characteristics. Different approaches and metrics were used to analyze the fragmentation of landscape units, and the combination of these indicators allowed for the assessment and improvement of the design of the landscape units. The results of this study are significant for decision-making regarding territory and road infrastructure management, as well as the organization of the Natura 2000 network.

From resilience attributes to city resilience

Emilio Rodriguez-Izquierdo et al.

Summary: Bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and urban planning is crucial for resilience challenges in cities. While resilience attributes have been used in international policy initiatives, their representation in public policies is often overlooked. This study presents an analytical approach to evaluate the application of resilience attributes in resilience public policy. The findings demonstrate the need for tangible and practical actions in government for urban resilience, highlighting the importance of translating concepts into urban planning.

Tourism Business in Spanish National Parks: A Multidimensional Perspective of Sustainable Tourism

Esteban Perez-Calderon et al.

Summary: In recent years, nature tourism has gained importance in the tourism market due to sociocultural change and increased concern for the environment. Spanish national parks have become significant tourist destinations, contributing to the socioeconomic development of their surrounding rural areas. The study aims to compare the development of tourism businesses in the socioeconomic influence areas of Spanish national parks. The findings show that perceived economic development and infrastructure have a significant impact on tourism businesses. Effective public-private partnerships are crucial for the sustainable nature tourism in national parks.

Assessing the effectiveness of protected areas against habitat fragmentation and loss: A long-term multi-scalar analysis in a mediterranean region

Jesus Santiago-Ramos et al.

Summary: The study evaluates the effectiveness of Protected Areas in reducing habitat loss and fragmentation in a South West European context. It finds that while PAs have limited impact on habitat loss, they play an important role in addressing habitat fragmentation. Loss of habitat continuity is mainly found in non-protected areas, and small losses of natural cover in key areas outside of PAs can significantly increase habitat fragmentation at the regional scale. Improved ecological connections between large PAs and proactive landscape planning in non-protected environments are recommended based on the study results.

Contributions of climate change and human activities to vegetation dynamics in Qilian Mountain National Park, northwest China

Qing Peng et al.

Summary: The study found that climate factors had the largest impact on vegetation dynamics in the Qilian Mountain National Park, with precipitation being the dominant factor. The contributions of CC and HA to the increase in NPP were 39.70% and 60.30% respectively, with HA-dominated areas containing most ecological restoration projects.

Reversing conflict between humans and the environment - The experience in the Qilian Mountains

Li Zongxing et al.

Summary: The long-standing conflict between human resource needs and the environment in the Qilian Mountains, China has resulted in severe ecological and environmental problems. To achieve sustainable development, the government implemented various policies costing a total of 10.71 billion yuan, including removing buildings, resettling residents, revegetating grassland, and prohibiting grazing. These efforts led to an increase in vegetation index and can be attributed to favorable political climate, natural environment, and cooperation between locals and government departments.

The Imprint of Built-Up Land Expansion on Cropland Distribution and Productivity in Shandong Province

Meng Wang et al.

Summary: Utilizing Shandong Province as a case study, this research investigated the impact of built-up land expansion on cropland loss and the dynamic changes in cropland landscape from 2000 to 2020. The findings revealed that the majority of new built-up land was converted from cropland, leading to an increase in cropland fragmentation and encroachment on high-quality cropland. These results highlight the importance of implementing sustainable land use strategies in the study area as well as in similar regions.
