Coordination level, spatio-temporal effects and driving mechanisms of Chinese agricultural water–land–economy composite system from the perspective of sustainable development by Shanwei Li, Yongchang Wu, Guangxuan Dai, Xueyuan Chen, Meng Li

“…The findings reveal that: (1) Regarding coordination level, the CS coordination level is on the rise, accompanied by distinct dynamic evolution patterns among regions and provinces. (2) Regarding spatial effects, the coupling coordination displays a clustered distribution pattern, with the eastern region acting as the core cluster, and a diminishing radiation capacity from east to western with decreasing geographical proximity. (3) Regarding driving mechanisms, the spatial differentiation in coupling coordination is attributed to the collective influence of various factors, with irrigation coverage and land-water coordination degree emerging as primary drivers. …”

Monitoring of Cultivated Land Quality Grade Changes Based on Spatiotemporal Scanning Statistics by Qiu Dayong, Fan Xieyu, Jiang Xuerong, Chen Hanyue, Zhang Liming, Xing Shihe, Lin Peng

“…Furthermore, the experimental results generated by the introduction of the spatiotemporal scanning model were compared with the results of a local autocorrelation model in the traditional spatial autocorrelation analysis method. [Results] ① The spatiotemporal scanning model was superior to the local autocorrelation model for mining high-value clustering features. ② The change amplitude and spatial distribution breadth of cultivated land quality grades at Minhou County from 2018 to 2019 were greater than in 2019—2020. ③ From 2018 to 2020, the overall cultivated land quality at Minhou County was stable from year by year, and showed an upward trend. ④ According to the variation of the spatial and temporal patterns of cultivated land quality at Minhou County, cultivated land was divided into five areas: high quality improvement area, low quality improvement area, primary key improvement area, secondary key improvement area, and moderate improvement area. …”
