This research aims to evaluate how land use/land cover changes influence habitat quality in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.
Simulated land use/land cover trends for 2035 and 2050 under three scenarios
Utilized FLUS-InVEST model to assess changes in habitat quality
Employed Geodetector to analyze driving factors of habitat quality fluctuations
Habitat quality declined by 0.041 from 2000 to 2023
Under Business as Usual scenario, average habitat quality projected to be 0.341 in 2035 and 0.337 in 2050
Ecological Priority scenario results in improved habitat quality with lower landscape fragmentation
