Assessment of ecological environment quality and their drivers in urban agglomeration based on a novel remote sensing ecological index by Fangyuan Lu, Chen Zhang, Haoyu Cao, Xibin Wang, Tong Zheng, Zhenfang Huang

“…However, notable regional disparities exist, with a spatial pattern characterized by “low EEQ in the northwest and high in the southeast.” (2) An analysis of NRSEI variations over this period indicates that the YRDUA’s EEQ has remained largely stable, although ecological degradation is concentrated in densely populated, low-lying areas near lakes, rivers, and plains. (3) Topographic complexity, economic development, and population density are the primary factors driving spatial differences in EEQ, with interactive effects among these factors exerting a more significant influence than individual factors alone.…”
