Interactive loops between anthropogenic urban-rural construction and natural systems in China: quantifying green development pathways and policy effectiveness
Xin Han
IntroductionAccelerating urbanization and rural construction (URC) in China profoundly alter natural systems (land cover, ecosystems, climate regulation). The existing green development index (GDI) systems remain inadequate in capturing anthropogenic impacts on natural ecosystems and lack an integrated framework that combines remote sensing and statistical data. Using these combined parameters, this study examines bidirectional interactions between anthropogenic construction activities and natur
