The spatial and temporal evolution of habitat quality and driving factors in nature reserves: a case study of 33 forest ecosystem reserves in Guizhou Province
The spatiotemporal variability of habitat quality in the study area was shaped by the combined effects of natural and social factors. The habitat quality of local-level protected areas is, furthermore, more significantly affected by human activities, which are the primary cause of their degradation.
