“…Analysis of the relationship between ESVs and their driving factors can provide an important basis for scientific ESVs research, ecological protection and restoration, urban and rural planning and sustainable development of land [ 57 , 71 ]. Many studies have identified anthropogenic influences as the main driving factors of ESVs [ 41 , 72 , 73 ], and the results of this study are consistent with these studies. The GPP represents the total amount of organic matter produced by vegetation and the initial material and energy of ecosystems [ 71 , 74 ].…”

“…Both construction land and forested land area in the Dongting Lake increased during 2000–2018, which is in line with the trend of China’s forest resource growth and urbanization development, and is related to the forest protection and expansion plan implemented in China [ 66 ]. Water bodies, forests and wetlands dominated the changes in ESVs [ 41 , 67 ], while increases in built-up land and unused land areas dominated the decrease in ESVs [ 68 ]. The total coverage area of forests, water bodies and wetlands accounted for more than 50% of the total area of the Dongting Lake, and these land cover types were the main components of the ESVs of the Dongting Lake.…”

“…Wang, et al [ 71 ] showed that the interaction between the NPP and soil conservation increased when the slope decreased, indicating that the synergy of these driving factors can be increased by changing the driving factors of the ESVs. Pan, et al [ 41 ] showed that the differences in the spatial distribution of ESVs in the study area were caused by the synergistic effects of anthropogenic factors, natural conditions, and landscape patterns. This paper quantitatively analyzes the effects of the HAI in synergy with other driving factors on ESVs and lays the foundation for exploring the differences in the spatial distribution of ESVs and their complex relationships with their driving factors.…”

“…The study of the factors influencing ESVs currently needs further improvement. This paper analyzes the importance of nine driving factors (HAI, GPP, Slope, DEM, POP, Temp, GDP, Pre and PM) on ESVs; however, ESVs also respond to other influencing factors such as oxygen release [ 57 ], the normalized difference vegetation index [ 41 ] and soil conditions [ 40 ]. Therefore, further refinement is still needed to comprehensively consider the effects of driving factors on ESVs in future studies to fully reflect the values of the ESVs.…”

“…Most of the above studies have estimated regional ESVs and analyzed their dynamics; however, the analysis of the driving factors of ESVs contributes to the understanding of an ecosystem’s environmental protection and formation mechanisms [ 40 ]. Understanding the changes in ESVs and their driving factors is the basis for regulating a positive response of ecosystems to the driving factors [ 41 ]. There are also many studies on the driving factors of ESVs [ 42 ], and the main factor is land use change, which is mainly influenced by anthropogenic factors [ 43 , 44 ].…”

Ecosystem service values (ESVs) are crucial to ecological conservation and restoration, urban and rural planning, and sustainable development of land. Therefore, it is important to study ESVs and their driving factors in the Dongting Lake Eco-Economic Zone (Dongting Lake). This paper quantifies the changes in ESVs in the Dongting Lake using land use data from 2000, 2005, 2010 and 2018. The eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) model is used to study the effects of individual driving factors and the synergistic effects of these driving factors on ESVs. Our analysis suggests that: (1) From 2000 to 2018, the largest dynamic degree values in the Dongting Lake are in unused land types, followed by construction lands and wetlands. The ESVs of the Dongting Lake show an increasing trend, with those of forestlands being the highest, accounting for approximately 44.65% of the total value. Among the ESVs functions, water containment, waste treatment, soil formation and protection, biodiversity conservation and climate regulation contribute the most to ESVs, with a combined contribution of 76.64% to 76.99%; (2) The integrated intensity of anthropogenic disturbance shows a U-shaped spatial distribution, decreasing from U1 to U3. The driving factors in descending order of importance are the human impact index, total primary productivity (GPP), slope, elevation, population, temperature, gross domestic product, precipitation and PM2.5; (3) When the GPP is low (GPP < 900), the SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanation) value of the high human impact index is greater than zero, indicating that an increase in GPP increases the ESVs in the Dongting Lake. This study can provide technical support and a theoretical basis for ecological environmental protection and ecosystem management in the Dongting Lake.

China' Loess Plateau, which was once dominated by sloping fields with poor farming conditions and serious soil erosion, has experienced a series of ecological programs. This article sought to explore the impacts of ecological programs on land use and ecosystem services in a typical catchment of China's Loess Plateau from 1984 to 2017, and thus understand what needs to be improved for future ecological programs. The findings showed that: (a) Due to the implementation of various ecological programs, the land use structure was optimized, and vegetation coverage was significantly increased, especially with the implement of the Grain for Green (GFG) Program. (b) The change of the total ecosystem service value (ESV) presented a Ushaped curve. The total ESV decreased under the Comprehensive Management of Small Catchments Program, and increased significantly since the implementation of the GFG. The rapid increase stage can be traced to the effects of the Gully Land Consolidation Program, reflecting the time lag effect of ecological programs on the improvement of ecosystem services. (c) The various ecosystem services were improved significantly, except for the food provisioning value (FPV). The abandonment of croplands without consolidation determined the decline of the FPV, implying the necessity for a land-use efficiency boost. Our research proposed to build up an actor network to integrate local governments, rural cadres, villagers, enterprises, and natural resources, especially land resources, into ecological programs to ensure ecological restoration and activate the factors of production, thus securing the sustainable development of China' Loess Plateau.
