“…Drawing from the study of urban recreation theory, and considering the binary spatial level, recreational space is conceptualized as a space system comprising physical space and recreational behavior space [26]. While emphasizing the regional aspect of the venue, it is also essential to concentrate on recreational activities and behaviors [27].…”

Park green spaces serve as essential urban public recreation spaces and represent significant components of urban construction land. Investigating the quality of park green spaces is a vital requirement for the establishment of a high-quality urban living environment and the enhancement of land use efficiency. This study developed a quality evaluation index system for park green spaces in Shenyang, considering the constituent elements of recreational spaces. By categorizing 168 park spaces into four size grades and employing the entropy-TOPSIS method with multiple data sources, the research assessed and analyzed the generally quality of park green spaces in Shenyang. Additionally, the study analyzed factors limiting park green spaces and introduced the Recreational Quality Index (RQI) to represent the distribution of park green space resources within the study area. The results demonstrated that 46 low-quality park green spaces require urgent improvement, and the riverside area and the vicinity of the second ring road possess high-quality park green space resources. Barriers of the same scale in park green spaces exhibited similar characteristics. Park green spaces in Huanggu District were allocated recreational resources optimally. The analysis determined that system construction and deep cultural heritage are crucial factors. This study can offer a scientific basis and recommendations for the development of park green spaces and the enhancement of efficient urban land use.

“…The services provided by ecological spaces in urban agglomerations mainly depend on the status of the ecosystem while the demand for ecosystem services depends on the level of economic and social development (Zhang et al, 2010). While research on the human demand for ecosystem services in urban agglomerations has tended to focus on subjective needs and well-being, such as regulation, culture and recreation, and the ecological spaces of urban agglomerations dominated by forests, grasslands, and wetlands, we mainly consider water supply, the regulation of air and water quality, and recreation and leisure in this study Yan et al, 2017;Yu et al, 2018;Wu and Zhou, 2019).…”

“…Green and blue spaces, such as forests, grasslands, water bodies, and wetlands, can provide leisure and recreation services, i.e., urban recreational spaces, including urban parks, ecological scenic spots, and public green spaces (Sun et al, 2016). A large volume of research has focused on assessing the function and layout of these spaces (Sun et al, 2016;Yu et al, 2018;Wang et al, 2020). The following indicators and methods are used to quantify the human demand for ecosystem services in urban agglomerations: The demand for water resources is derived from domestic use, use for production, and ecological use, which is calculated based on the regional water consumption.…”

The rapid expansion of China's urban agglomerations in recent decades has resulted in over-occupied ecological spaces and increased ecological pressure that are restricting healthy regional development. This paper examines the structure and characteristics of distribution of "production-living-ecological" spaces in five mega-urban agglomerations in China: Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH), the Yangtze River Delta (YRD), Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA), Chengdu-Chongqing (CY), and the middle reaches of the Yangtze River (MYR). We analyze spatial and temporal variations in the ecological spaces and factors influencing them from 1990 to 2020, and examine the comprehensive ecological carrying capacity and status of ecological spaces in the past 30 years based on the available water resources, regulation of water and air quality, and leisure and recreation. The results show the following: (1) Urban agglomerations in different stages of formation and development represent varying area ratios of "ecological-production-living" spaces. The modes of expansion and evolution of the living spaces are dominated by multi-center combinations as well as the spatial structure of ecological spaces, including barrier, compact, discrete, and fully enveloping spaces. (2) From 1990 to 2020, the area occupied by living spaces in urban agglomerations continued to increase significantly while that of spaces for ecological production decreased. Except in the GBA, ecological spaces have exhibited a trend of increase in area, especially in the past 10 years. The area ratios and spatio-temporal variations in the "production-living-ecological" spaces indicate that the main functions of production and ecological spaces in mega-urban agglomerations have shifted from supply to regulation and culture, and reflect the transition from rapid urbanization to sustainable urbanization in China. (3) The comprehensive ecological carrying capacities of 78.6%, 73.1%,

“…Changes in the ecological service value of urban green space systems are closely related to changes in urban land use structure, and the increase in construction land and the decrease in green space [ 32 ]. Urban green space ecological service value evaluation studies mostly take urban land use change research and green space landscape factor change research [ 33 , 34 ] as research perspectives, utilizing land use change models [ 35 , 36 ]. The landscape model index [ 37 ] uses the comprehensive valuation and trade-off model (InVEST) to evaluate the ecological service value of the urban green space system.…”

In this study, an urban fringe green space classification system was established to explore the spatiotemporal variation of green space landscape and ecosystem service value (ESV) based on multi-source land-use data of Ganjingzi district from 2000 to 2018. (1) Results show that the total green space area declined from 359.57 to 213.46 km2 over the study period. Green space large plaque index (LPI) and class area both gradually declined, whereas the number of plaques (NP) and plaque density (PD) gradually increased, indicating green space landscape fragmentation. (2) Additionally, the value of green space ecosystem services reduced from 397.42 to 124.93 million yuan. The dynamic degree of ESV change in green space increased or decreased moderately, always being < 0 and showing a decreasing trend of ESV. From a spatial variation perspective, dynamic degrees of ESV variation in the western and northern regions with relatively intensive green space were higher than those in the east. Regarding ESV of various green space types, forest land had the highest functional values of ecological regulation and support, whereas arable land provided the highest functional values of production supply. (3) The ecological service function value of green space system is negatively correlated with PD, NP, edge density, landscape shape index, and Shannon’s diversity index, and positively correlated with aggregation index, contagion metrics, and LPI. The correlation coefficient between the climate regulation function of forest and the change of number of plaques is -0.874. The correlation coefficient of the recreation and culture of the wetland to the plaque density change is no less than -0.214.
