Evaluation of land ecological security and diagnosis of obstacle factors in Loess Plateau of central and eastern Gansu Province based on PSR-TOPSIS model
Objective The fragile and complex of the land ecological environment in the Loess Plateau region of central and eastern Gansu Province were analyzed, and the land ecological security was evaluated and diagnosed, in order to provide a theoretical basis for the ecological management of the Loess Plateau region. Methods Taking the seven cities and prefectures in the Loess Plateau of central and eastern Gansu Province as the research units, a land ecological security evaluation indicator system was constructed based on the pressure-state-response (PSR) model. The TOPSIS method, entropy weight method, and obstacle factor diagnosis were then employed to investigate the land ecological security status and influencing factors from 2010 to 2022. Results ① Overall, the land ecological security level of the study area showed an upward trend. The land ecological security level of the region was Ⅳ in 2010 and 2011, and remained at Ⅲ in the period of 2012—2022. Spatially and temporally, the land ecological security level of Lanzhou City improved to Ⅱ in 2010—2022, and Linxia Prefecture, Dingxi City, and Tianshui City successively increased to Ⅲ, showing a pattern of high security in the west and low in the east. ② At the criterion level, the security evaluation levels of the pressure and state systems both upgraded from Ⅳ to Ⅲ from 2010 to 2022, while the response system consistently remained at Ⅲ. ③ The main obstacle factors were per-unit fixed asset investment, water yield modulus, per-unit output value of secondary and tertiary industries, proportion of effective irrigated area, and per capita GDP. In addition, the obstacle degrees of population density and land use rate increased year by year, and their effects on land ecological security could not be ignored. Conclusion The land ecological security level in the Loess Plateau of central and eastern Gansu Province generally shows an upward trend, but remains in a long-term “critical security” state. To further enhance the regional land ecological security level, attention should be given to issues such as soil and water conservation, optimization of industrial structure, and intensive land use. While promoting economic development, ecological protection and restoration should continue to be strengthened.
