Understanding the relationships among multiple land use functions (LUFs) is crucial for land-based spatial planning that can guide targeted land use policy-making in complex socio-ecological systems. However, few studies concerned the interactions among various LUFs integrating the issues of economy, environment, and society at a fine scale. In this study, we quantified 12 LUFs using a geospatial model and statistical analysis at the grid scale in Jiangsu Province.

Article Synopsis
  • Land use function (LUF) is key for evaluating land system changes and is important for effective land use planning and management.
  • A new classification system for LUFs, based on spatial planning goals, was tested in Jiangsu Province, analyzing data from 2000 to 2015 across 63 counties.
  • The study revealed significant changes in LUFs due to different county characteristics and identified four distinct LUF zones, suggesting a need for tailored local strategies in future land use policies.
