RESUMO
Exploring the spatiotemporal change characteristics of ecosystem service value (ESV) under the influence of national land space pattern (NLSP) changes is of great significance for promoting the rational use of land resources and the optimization of ecosystems. In this study, Fengdu County in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area was selected as a case study. We analyzed the changes in NLSP using land use data from 1990, 2000, 2010 and 2018. Then, we used the equivalent factor method and exploratory spatial data analysis method to explore the spatiotemporal change characteristics of the ESV of Fengdu County. The results show that: (1) From 1990 to 2018, the changes in NLSP in Fengdu County generally manifested in the transformation of agricultural space into urban space and ecological space; (2) The spatiotemporal change of ESV is a process that positively responds to the increase in ecological space and negatively responds to the expansion of urban space. From 1990 to 2018, the total ESV of Fengdu County showed a trend of continuous growth, with a total increase of CNY 11.10 × 108, and the change rate was 9.33%. The ESV gain area is mainly located along the Yangtze River and the southernmost part of the county, and the loss area is mainly located near the south bank of the Yangtze River; (3) ESV and its changes in Fengdu County have a significant positive spatial autocorrelation. The cold and hot spots of ESV change are mainly distributed along the Yangtze River and to the south of the Yangtze River. Therefore, it is suggested to integrate ESV as an important indicator into the decision-making of national land space planning. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the intensive use of urban space and protect the important ecological space from decreasing. Our study results provide useful insights for the development of regional NLS management and environmental protection policies. However, it is worth noting that the results of this paper are more applicable to areas where the terrain is dominated by mountains.

Natural capital utilization in ecologically sensitive areas is an important subject for ecologically sustainable quantification. Research on the natural capital flow and stock is helpful to analyze the utilization of natural capital and promote its sustainable development. Thus, we attempted to combine the three-dimensional ecological footprint model with the decoupling model and GM(1,1) model to analyze the current and future state of land natural capital utilization, and then analyze the status of decoupling between economic development and the sustainable use of the land natural capital. The results showed that: (1) Overall, the land footprint and land capacity in the hinterland of the Three Gorges Reservoir area increased. The occupation of the land natural capital flow increased, and the footprint depth first increased and then decreased. (2) The utilization ratio of capital stock to the flows of cultivated land increased, and the space for sustainable utilization of natural capital was larger. The gray prediction showed that the ratio of capital stock to the flows in all the districts and counties of the study area will increase from 2022. (3) A decoupling relationship existed between the utilization ratio of the stock flow and Gross Domestic Product as a whole, indicating that the pressure of economic development on the sustainable utilization of natural capital has always existed. This study has a certain reference value to construct an ecological civilization in the hinterland of the Three Gorges Reservoir and formulate relevant policies on the increase of rural land natural capital.
