Unveiling the Spatial Variation in Ecosystem Services Interactions and Their Drivers Within the National Key Ecological Function Zones, China by Tingjing Zhang, Quanqin Shao, Haibo Huang

“…The dominant factors in different functional zones influenced ES interactions in a non-stationary manner, with the same factors potentially showing diverse effect types in different sub-regions. Additionally, we detected the dominant role of landscape configuration factors in sub-regions for specific interaction types (e.g., WR-NPP interaction in the SP zones), suggesting the potential for achieving multi-ES synergies through landscape planning without altering landscape composition. …”
