“…After obtaining the land-use data and referring to relevant research on land-use change [35][36][37], we utilized three indices to discuss transfer between different land-use types. These indices are "land-use transfer flow," "activity degree of land use," and "dominant change" indices.…”

“…To investigate the driving forces behind land-use changes in the polder area, we divided the research area into rectangular raster units of 500 m × 500 m as spatial analysis units and used the proportion of polder in each grid as the dependent variable (Y) of the driving force model. In addition, we referred to the literature to identify six categories of driving factors (independent variables): ecology, transportation, topography, population, services, and construction [36,38,39].…”

This study tries to gain an understanding of the unique spatial patterns of polder areas. Starting from a typical “water-polder-village” combination of spatial elements, our study begins by identifying land use in the polder area using Sentinel-2 data and unsupervised machine learning techniques, taking Gaochun District, Nanjing (China), as an example. Next, we conducted a spatial analysis of change for different years using multiple land-use change indices. Finally, geographically weighted regression (GWR) was developed to account for the heterogeneity of spatial patterns and visualize the spatial distributions of the estimated coefficients. The results, derived from the indices we have constructed, indicate that the water-polder-village is the main subject of spatial pattern changes, with spatial replacement of water and polder and incremental quantitative changes in village areas. Additionally, the main source of existing village land comes from the occupation of polders. Furthermore, the impacts of natural and ecological, development and construction, population, and economic factors on the spatial patterns of the polder area exhibit spatiotemporal heterogeneity. Meanwhile, in rapidly developing areas, population, economy, and construction development may negatively impact the protection of polders. The results provide a reference for the construction and protection of production, living, and ecological spaces in polder areas.

“…Studies have shown (Wang et al 2018 ; Yao et al 2021 ; Wei et al 2022 ) that the unbalanced pattern of agricultural, urban, and ecological spaces reflects the impact of human activities on the natural environment, causing social and ecological problems such as ecological degradation, energy shortages, and natural disasters. The International Geosphere-Biosphere Program (IGBP) and the Human Dimensions in Global Environmental Change Program (IHDP) have proposed the study of land use change patterns and the analysis of driving forces as core research directions to reduce the negative impacts of land use change on nature and society (Qin et al 2022 ). From this, land and resource development are shifting from a production space to a model of coordinated production, living, and ecological space (Wang 2021 ).…”

With the rapid development of the economy, problems such as resource depletion, environmental degradation, and increasingly strained human-land relations have become increasingly prominent. The rational layout of the production, living, and ecological spaces is the basis for solving the contradiction between economic development and environmental protection. This paper analyzed the spatial distribution pattern and evolution characteristics of the Qilian Mountains Nature Reserve based on the theory of production, living, and ecological space. The results show that the production and living function indexes are rising. The most advantaged areas are in the northern part of the research area, where the terrain is flat and transportation is convenient. The ecological function index rises, falls, then rises again. The high-value area is located in the south of the study area, and its ecological function is intact. The study area is dominated by ecological space. During the study period, the area of production space increased by 858.5 km2 and the living space area increased by 341.12 km2. The intensification of human activities has separated the continuity of ecological space. The area of ecological space has decreased by 233.68 km2. Among geographical factors, altitude has a significant impact on the evolution of living space. Population density is the main socioeconomic factor in changing the areas of production space and ecological space. This study is expected to provide a reference basis for land use planning and sustainable development of resources and environment in nature reserves.

The division of the territorial space functional area is the primary method to study the rational exploitation and use of land space. The research on the Production–Living–Ecological Space (PLES) change and its motivating factors has major implications for managing and optimizing spatial planning and may open up a new research direction for inquiries into environmental change on a global scale. In this study, the transfer matrix and landscape pattern index methods were used to analyze the temporal changes as well as the evolution features of the landscape pattern of the PLES in the Chaohu Lake Basin from 2000 to 2020. Using principal component analysis and grey correlation analysis, the primary driving indicators of the spatial changes of the PLES in the Chaohu Lake Basin and the degree of the influence of various driving factors on various spatial types were determined. The study concluded with a few findings. First, from the standpoint of landscape structure, the Chaohu Lake Basin’s agricultural production space (APS) makes up more than 60% of the total area, and it and urban living space (ULS) are the two most visible spatial categories. Second, the pattern of the landscape demonstrates that the area used for agricultural production holds a significant advantage within the overall structure of the landscape. Although there is less connectedness between different landscape types, less landscape dominance, and more landscape fragmentation, the structure of different landscape types tends to be more varied. Third, the findings of the driving analysis demonstrate that the natural climate, population structure of agricultural development, and industrial structure of economic development are the three driving indicators of the change of the PLES. Finally, in order to promote the formation of a territorial space development pattern with intensive and efficient production space, appropriate living space, and beautiful ecological space, it is proposed to carry out land regulation according to natural factors, economic development, national policies, and other actual conditions.
