Abstract:
Developing a deeper understanding of how human activities affect urban ecosystems is crucial for designing and promoting sustainable regional development. Although existing studies have explored the causes of environmental changes in cities, there remains a lack in revealing and quantifying the impact of urban expansion on the vegetation carbon sequestration capacity (VCSC). To address these gaps, this study calculated the 20-year monthly Net Primary Productivity (NPP) of vegetation in the Yangtze River Economic Belt (YREB). The contributions of climate and human activities to NPP were quantif
