Impact of management modes on ecosystem service values: a case study in Fujin City, Northeast China

Different management modes can influence land-use and land-cover changes (LULCC), resulting in changes in ecosystem service values (ESV). However, few studies compared the differences in ESV under different management modes. The objective was to analyze the impact of different management modes on ESV. Multisource remote sensing images were used to obtain the LULCC data for Fujin City over four periods (1986, 1995, 2005, and 2015). We modified the equivalent value factors method by crop yield to estimate the ESV in different years. Statistics show that paddy increased from 59.2 to 1341.8 km(2) in the agricultural region, whereas it increased from 60.1 to 2236.3 km(2) in the reclamation region during 1986 to 2015. The total ESV decreased by 49.0% and 43.4%, respectively, in the agricultural region and reclamation region. The agricultural products function exhibited a larger increase and the freshwater supply function exhibited a greater decrease in the reclamation region than in the agricultural region. Two regions can learn from each other and carry out innovations in land management approaches to promote common developmental goals. (C) 2018 Society of Photo Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE)
