Abstract

(1) Background: Ecosystem service value assessment is a trending area of sustainable development research and ecological civilization construction. Ecosystems provide supply, regulation, support, and cultural services, and the value assessment of ecosystem services is helpful for people to understand the importance of natural ecosystems to production and life. Based on the insufficiency of the current research on the value of land ecological services, this paper discusses the research direction of the evaluation of the value of ecosystem services in the future, provides a reference for the evaluation of the value of ecosystem services, and promotes multi-scale and multi-directional research experiments on the value of land ecological services. (2) In this paper, the basic information data are obtained through the interpretation of remote sensing images, and the value equivalent factor is corrected according to the average grain yield per unit area and grain price data in 2000, 2010, and 2020 to calculate the land ecological service value. The relevant data obtained by processing the ecological service value are classified into different levels to discuss the changes and trends of 129 county-level administrative units in three periods and analyze the quantitative and spatial variation characteristics of the ecological service value of 129 county-level administrative units. The paper studies the spatial agglomeration state of the total value of ecological services and finds the hotspot areas of the land ecological service value in the study area. (3) During the study period, great changes have taken place in the land use pattern of Yunnan Province, with the area of construction land expanding and the area of wetland decreasing. The ecological service value level of 129 county-level administrative units is relatively stable. The total value of each service is ranked as soil formation and protection > gas regulation > water conservation > biodiversity protection > climate regulation > raw materials > waste treatment > entertainment culture > food production. In the three periods, Shangri-La City has the highest value of ecological services per unit of land and Wuhua District has the lowest. The value of ecological services per unit of land in 129 county-level administrative units continues to rise. The areas with high average values are mainly in western Yunnan, southwestern Yunnan, southern Yunnan, and southeastern Yunnan. (4) The development speed of land ecological service value in Yunnan Province is far less than the development speed of GDP. There is still a lot of room for the development of ecological service value in Yunnan Province. The economic influence of Kunming is radiating to various cities through expressways and high-speed railways. The spatial distribution of land ecological service value in Yunnan Province has a strong correlation, showing a pattern of spatial agglomeration distribution, and the clustered areas are very stable.
