Abstract

As a typical ecologically fragile region in the north of China, ecosystems in western Jilin Province have been severely damaged by a combination of natural factors and human activities. Ecological restoration sites need to be identified and viable strategies need to be developed to maximize the restoration of ecosystem functions and enhance human well-being. This study used the InVEST model, K-means clustering, and spatial statistical tools to identify priority sites for ecological restoration in western Jilin Province based on the change in ecosystem service bundles and in the human activity footprint. The results showed that provisioning services continued to increase and other services decreased and then increased during the study period. The provisioning service bundles and provisioning-regulating bundles increased continuously, the regulating service bundles, cultural service bundles and the service synergy bundles decreased continuously, and the supporting service bundles first increased and then decreased. Out of 48,005 evaluation units, 10,203 were prioritized for ecological restoration, accounting for 21.25% of the total. This study provides a scientific basis for restoring regional ecosystems and improving the supply of ecosystem services.
