Family Meal Environment Differentially Conditions the Prospective Association between Early Childhood Screen Time and Key Social Relationships in Adolescent Girls.

Background: Despite screen time recommendations, children are increasingly spending time on electronic devices, rendering it an important risk factor for subsequent social and developmental outcomes. Sharing meals could offer a way to promote psychosocial development. This study examines the interaction between family meal environment and early childhood screen time on key adolescent social relationships. Methods: Participants are 1455 millennial children (49% boys) from the Quebec Longitudinal Study of Child Development birth cohort. Parents reported on child screen use at ages 2 and 6 years and family meal environment quality at age 6 years. Parents and children reported on parent-child relationships and peer victimization experiences, respectively, at age 13 years. Sex-stratified multiple regression estimated the direct association between screen time trends, family meal environment quality, and their interaction on later social relationship outcomes. Results: For girls, when preschool screen time increased, sharing family meals in high-quality environments was associated with more positive and less conflictual relationships with their mothers, whereas meals shared in low- and moderate-quality environments were associated with fewer instances of victimization by their peers. Non-linear associations were not significant for boys. Conclusion: Capitalizing on family meal environment represents a simple/cost-efficient activity that can compensate for some long-term risks associated with increased screen use, above and beyond pre-existing and concurrent individual and family characteristics. Public health initiatives may benefit from considering family meals as a complementary intervention strategy to screen use guidelines.

Indicators sand flies and environment associated to spatial landscaping change in Choco Biosphere Reserve UNESCO.

Sand flies are insects vector associated with terrestrial forest ecosystems; in the Ecuadorian Andes, they participate in the transmission of human cutaneous leishmaniasis. This geographical area is an opportunity to evaluate the role of sand flies as bioindicators od the degree of intervention of a tropical humid forest ecosystems (THF) associated with changes in the ecology of the local landscape. CDC-light traps were used for collecting adults' sand flies in February 2020 in a humid tropical forest within Choco Biosphere Reserve. All species were identified using morphological keys. Analysis data about abundance, richness, species accumulation, diversity index, species composition communities, species sex proportion, spatial sand flies environmental, Renyi's Diversity Profile were performed to compare six spatial habitats in Mashpi locality, Ecuador. Sand flies were collected (n-1435); the main species are represented by Th. reburra Ny. trapidoi, Pa. aclydifera, Py. panamensis and Lu. hartmanni. Only Th. reburra is associated with not intervened forest, while the other 3 species are associated with intervened forest within Mashpi in the Choco Biosphere Reserve. The secondary forest has the major sandflies' richness, while the primary forest exhibits the major abundance. The results indicated that Th. reburra is a sandfly restricted to the Andean Forest and is a bioindicator of the high environmental health quality of the forest, while Ny. trapidoi and Pa. aclydifera are bioindicators of environmental disturbances in the forest. Additionally, Ps. panamensis, Lu. hartmanni and Ny. trapidoi are bioindicators of human impact and the risk of leishmaniasis.

The interactive effect of environmental penalties and environmental subsidies on corporate environmental innovation: Is more better or worse?

Most previous studies fail to investigate the interactive effects of different environmental instruments. Whether adopting more environmental instruments is better or worse for corporate environmental innovation (CEI) remains unclear. In this study, we distinguish between regulatory pressures as punitive pressures (environmental penalties, EP) and incentive pressures (environmental subsidies, ES) and focus on investigating whether EP and ES act as complements or substitutes on CEI. The results reveal that the interactive effect of EP and ES can act as substitutes rather than complements in promoting CEI. The results remain unchanged after a series of robustness tests. Further heterogeneity analysis reveals that the substitutive effect of EP and ES on CEI is more pronounced for state-owned firms and for firms operating in regions characterized by higher environmental quality and greater marketization. Our results provide valuable insights for the government on achieving an optimal outcome by mixing environmental instruments to promote CEI.

Ecological innovations in the development of sustainable tourism

In a situation of a significant increase in risks and restrictions imposed by the action of homeostatic mechanisms of the biosphere, without taking into account the environmental imperatives of development, it will not be possible to prevent irreversible anthropogenic changes in natural complexes. For the tourism sector of the economy, for which the high quality of the natural environment is vital, the problem of stimulating innovations in the field of rationalization of nature management and resource conservation is particularly relevant. The development of sustainable tourism involves the integration of environmental, economic and social principles of managing biological and physical ecosystems in such a way as to protect environmental sustainability, biological diversity and environmental productivity. It is environmental innovations in tourism that play a significant role in increasing the efficiency of using natural ecosystems, preserving the wealth of natural heritage and biological diversity. The aim of the work was to study the potential, conditions, key factors for the practical implementation of environmental innovations in the tourism industry, as well as the development of mechanisms for the implementation of state policy aimed at transforming tourism activities on ESG principles. The scientific novelty of the work consists in identifying current priorities and measures for integrating environmental and innovation policies in relation to the tasks of ensuring sustainable tourism development by using the benefits of their joint implementation.

Semivariogram Modeling based on Provincial Clusters for Infectious Diseases and Mental Health in Indonesia

Health is a valuable asset that profoundly impacts individuals and society as a whole, enhancing overall well-being and quality of life. Both internal and external factors, along with geographical location, play a crucial role in health. These factors exhibit spatial patterns that can be effectively analyzed through geostatistical methods, particularly semivariogram modeling. This study explores appropriate semivariogram models to depict disease distribution in Indonesian provinces using data from National Health Insurance Agency (NHIA). The provinces will be grouped into five clusters based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI), health claim amounts, the number of participants, and 23 disease groups through non-hierarchical cluster analysis. Three clusters, with the most provinces, will be selected for semivariogram modeling: exponential, Gaussian, and Spherical models. The best-fitting semivariogram models are anisotropic exponential for claim amounts and anisotropic Gaussian for CPI, number of participants, infectious diseases, and mental health issues. Meanwhile, the most suitable spherical model is identified for a specific cluster (Kalimantan and Nusa Tenggara regions). The results of this modeling can serve as recommendations for the inter-province radius of influence in disease prevention measures and the creation of a high-quality environment.

What constitutes a high-quality environment for speech and language development?

ABSTRACT This paper discusses a study that considered how the quality of three different learning environments, indoor classrooms, outdoor classrooms and forest schools, for children aged 3–5 years, is associated with the quality of their utterances. Adopting a theoretical framework of interactionism it was found that, within the study settings (n = 4), the quality of utterances differed depending on the environment in which the children were playing and learning. The data were collected through a phased approach, firstly by undertaking interviews, with children, parents, practitioners and experts, (n = 63). These interviewee responses defined the features of a high-quality environment to promote speech and language. The second phase, using the features identified, resulted in an audit tool which was used to assess different environments. By then analysing lexical diversity, through observations (n = 43) using body-worn cameras attached to children using chest harnesses, alongside the environmental audit, a positive association was found between the quality of the environment and the quality of children’s utterances. It is asserted therefore that it is possible to define a high-quality environment, for the purposes of language development.

Comparative Hotspot Analysis of Urban Living Environments and Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Strategies: A Case Study of Beijing and Xi’an

The quality of urban living environments has become a focal point for local governments and citizens. By conducting a thorough analysis of the human settlement environment, the study can not only gain an intuitive insight into the quality of life of residents but also propose forward-thinking and sustainable suggestions for areas of improvement. This study optimizes and analyzes open platform data closely related to residents and assesses the suitability of different areas for living from diverse perspectives and methodologies. This study has chosen Beijing and Xi’an as the primary case studies. The local living environment is categorized into residential, living, recreational environment, transportation convenience, and safety. Our evaluation combines subjective and objective analysis methods and considers hotspot and cold spot analyses. This study employs the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) as a subjective analysis method and the entropy method for objective analysis. By integrating both methods, it assesses the living environment conditions of Beijing and Xi’an. Furthermore, using GIS software, hotspot analysis is conducted for both cities, identifying areas of high and low quality. Detailed analysis is subsequently carried out for the low-quality clusters. Ultimately, this study, grounded in the theory of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD), presents recommendations for sustainable development aimed at representative rural towns and streets. City centers in Beijing and Xi’an have high-quality environments, while the outskirts show declining quality. Xi’an has uneven resource distribution, while Beijing is more balanced, with hotspot analyses indicating specific high- and low-quality cluster locations in both cities. These disparities and characteristics of the low-quality clusters offer insights for future urban development.

Sustainable energy efficiency, greener energy and energy‐related emissions nexus: Sustainability‐related implications for G7 economies

The topic of energy efficiency and environmental quality is quickly becoming one of the most pressing concerns facing the globe today. The linkage between energy efficiency and high environmental quality standards has significant repercussions for the long‐term viability of the ecosystem. The prime objective of this study is to explore the nexus between sustainable energy efficiency, green energy and energy‐related emissions. Energy efficiency has the potential to be a key tool in the pursuit of environmental sustainability. This study investigates the dynamic relationships between energy efficiency and energy‐related greenhouse gases (GHG) in developed countries from 1990 to 2020. Using advanced econometric approaches, the results argue that energy efficiency, globalization and greener energy adoption are helpful for the reduction of GHG emissions in developed countries. Moreover, economic growth increases GHG emissions in developed countries. Furthermore, we find a bidirectional causality of energy‐related greenhouse gas emissions with energy efficiency, income and globalization. The study results guide policymakers on the policies they can implement apropos greener energies and enforce to ensure sustainable development.

Effect of environmental integrity on the functional composition of the Odonata (Insecta) community in streams in the Eastern Amazon

Anthropic activities affect the dynamics of aquatic communities and can influence the reproductive behavior of many species. In addition, functional diversity is expected to be influenced by the environment. In this context, we evaluated how the biological functional characteristics of the Odonata adult community respond to impacts caused by human action on streams in the Eastern Amazon, using bionomic characteristics as response variables. Concomitantly, we analyzed which characteristics are responsible for the presence of species in the environment. We sampled adults of Odonata in 98 preserved and altered streams in the Eastern Amazon. We used as functional characteristics: oviposition, thermoregulation and body size, and as morphological characteristics: width of the thorax, width of the wing at the base, length of the abdomen and length of the thorax. We recorded 80 species, distributed in 16 functional groups and three categories: present in all environments, present only in preserved environments, and present only in altered environments. There was variation in the functional characteristics studied between the environments (PerMANOVA; F = 15,655; P < 0.01), with a significant difference in the composition of attributes between the environments studied. Although PCoA did not find a strong relationship between the functional attributes and the level of integrity, the individuals found in altered areas are heliothermic, exophytic oviposition, with a wider wing width at the base and larger size. Individuals with smaller body size and endophytic and epiphytic oviposition, and thermal and endothermic conformators are found in preserved areas. Our study provides evidence that functional attributes are determining factors for the occurrence of species in the environment. The high quality of environment has a significant effect on the composition of functional groups. Exophytic and heliothermic species are favored by altered environments, while in preserved environments, the species that are best adapted are those that present epiphytic and endophytic oviposition and ectothermic thermoregulation (thermal conformers). As for morphology, altered environments favor medium to large individuals, with greater thorax length and abdomen size, preserved environments may favor the smaller and/or specialized species.

A sustainable neighbourhood for the future

In the global context, cities are becoming more and more necessary to adapt to crisis changes and local development, and people's attention to the creation of high-quality environment is gradually increasing. Considering that the construction of the block scale is more flexible, diverse and practical than the overall construction of the city, so this paper analyses the design and practice of multiple future neighbourhood in China and France, summarizes strategies and experiences in important aspects such as infrastructure, mobility, architectural style and form, provides diversified references for urban workers, and puts forward a future-oriented sustainable neighbourhood vision.

Impacts of environmental decontamination on the rebuilding of returnees' lives after the Fukushima accident.

Environmental decontamination after a nuclear disaster not only contributes to reducing the public's exposure to radiation, it also introduces waste disposal issues arising from the decontamination process. In addition to that issue, the optimisation of decontamination efforts necessitates the consideration of various environmental, economic, and societal factors. Stakeholders' perspectives are important for identifying the multifaceted aspects to be considered. We conducted a semi-structured interview survey in 2019 with ten residents in a rural community in Fukushima, Japan, which experienced a six-year-long evacuation due to the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident. The main survey questions addressed returnees' perceptions of the decontamination of farmlands and forests. The 'Steps for Coding and Theorization' procedure was used for qualitative analysis. The analysis illuminated the positive and negative impacts of the decontamination process on the rebuilding of the returnees' rural lives from various perspectives and identified elements to be considered for the optimisation of future remediation efforts. The removal of radioactive materials had a positive psychological impact on the returnees, fostering a sense of security that their crops were safe and instilling confidence that the high-quality environment of the region had been restored. These aspects were not included among the initial governmental objectives for decontamination, which were aimed solely at reducing radiation exposure. By contrast, the removal of fertile topsoil from farmland had a negative impact on the residents, making them hesitant to resume farming. Our findings suggest that emphasising procedural fairness in decision-making of decontamination options such as reflection of stakeholders' opinions led to residents perceiving their post-decontamination situation more positively. Our results provide valuable insights for optimising remediation strategies for the recovery process following a significant nuclear accident.

Similarities and differences between CLASS and ECERS-R estimates of educational environment quality.

The conducted research was devoted to comparison of kindergartens' educational environment quality evaluation via ECERS-R and CLASS methods. Both methods were applied in the same kindergarten groups. Therefore, in this study we attempted to find out if the educational environment quality assessments acquired via the two methods mentioned above would coincide. We analyzed the results from the cultural-historical psychology perspective. The educational environment quality assessment has been conducted in 83 Moscow kindergarten groups where study 5 to7 years old preschoolers. The correlation analysis results show that the ECERS-R method subscales are not related to the "Emotional support" CLASS domain, however, a significant correlation with the total ECERS-R score has been revealed. The "Classroom Organization" CLASS domain has the highest number of correlations to the ECERS-R subscales (4) as well as to the total ECERS-R score. The "Instructional Support" domain is connected only to the Parents and Staff subscale within the ECERS-R method. As a result of comparing groups with relatively low and high quality of the educational environment, that were identified based on the evaluation via the ECERS-R and CLASS methods, a good agreement between the results has been revealed. However, a fairly large number of groups with high CLASS scores have made it to the pool of average-low ECERS-R scores, which demonstrates a non-linear connection between the educational environment quality evaluations according to these two methods. Research allows to conclude that the ECERS-R and CLASS approaches complement each other well.

Long-term sediment records reveal over three thousand years of heavy metal inputs in the Mar Menor coastal lagoon (SE Spain)

The Mar Menor lagoon combined high biological production and environmental quality, making it an important economic engine. However, the pressure of human activities put its ecological integrity at risk, the oldest environmental impact being mining activity recorded since Roman times, about 3500 years ago, reaching its maximum intensity in the 20th century, contributing heavy metals to the lagoon sediments for almost 30 centuries.This work reviews the spatiotemporal evolution of the main heavy metals in this coastal lagoon using data from 272 surface sediment samples obtained during the last 40 years and two deep cores covering the total history of the lagoon (c. 6500 yrs BP), so as their incidence in the lagoon trophic web.The observed patterns in sedimentation, sediment characteristics and heavy metal content respond to the complex interaction, sometimes synergistic and sometimes opposing, between climatic conditions, biological production and human activities, with mining being mainly responsible for Pb, Zn and Cd inputs and port activities for Cu. High Fe/Al, Ti/Al and Zr/Al ratios identify periods of mining activity, while periods of arid climatic conditions and deforestation that increase erosion processes in the drainage basin and silt concentration in the lagoon sediments are determined by high Zr/Rb and, to a lesser extent, Zr/Al and Si/Al ratios. After the cessation of direct discharges into the lagoon in the 1950s, the recent evolution of heavy metals concentration and its spatial redistribution would be determined by hydrographic and biogeochemical processes, solubility of different elements, and coastal works in harbours and on beaches. The bioconcentration factor decreases along the trophic levels of the food web, suggesting that the lagoon ecosystem provides an important service by retaining heavy metals in the sediment, largely preventing their bioavailability, but actions involving resuspension or changes in sediment conditions would pose a risk to organisms.

PropósitoEsta investigación pretende aclarar cómo afecta el humor al efecto persuasivo de la señalización sobre el comportamiento responsable de los turistas respecto al patrimonio.Diseño/metodología/enfoqueSe realizaron tres experimentos basados en escenarios a través de Credamo (una plataforma de encuestas en línea). En los estudios 1 y 2 se utilizó un diseño entre sujetos de un solo factor (estilo de lenguaje: humorístico frente a serio) para comprobar los efectos directos e indirectos de los señalización humorísticos. El estudio 3 utilizó un diseño entre sujetos de 2 (calidad del entorno: alta frente a baja) × 2 (estilo lingüístico: humorístico frente a serio) para revelar con más detalle la condición límite (calidad del entorno) del efecto del humor.ConclusionesLos resultados revelaron que las señalización humorísticas (frente a las serias) persuaden mejor a los turistas a participar en las HRB. El gusto por el contenido influye en la relación entre los señalización humorísticos y las HRB. Además, la calidad del entorno modera de forma significativa el efecto de los señalización humorísticos sobre los THRB, de modo que el efecto persuasivo de los señalización humorísticos es mayor en condiciones de alta calidad del entorno que en condiciones de baja calidad del entorno.Implicaciones prácticasLas organizaciones de gestión de destinos pueden utilizar el humor para reducir la reacción de los turistas ante las señalización a la persuasión conductual. Además, también es importante adaptar oportunamente las señalización humorísticas a los cambios en la calidad del entorno.Originalidad/valorBasándonos en la teoría de la reactancia psicológica, nuestra investigación confirmó el efecto dominante de las señalización humorísticas empleando el gusto por el contenido como variable mediadora, proporcionando una nueva perspectiva para la investigación sobre la regulación de las THRB. Además, aclaramos una condición límite para la persuasión de los señalización humorísticos, lo que ayuda a reforzar la comprensión de la persuasión humorística.

How do weather conditions and environmental characteristics influence aesthetic preferences of freshwater environments?

Freshwater (inland) blue space environments provide a range of public health benefits to visitors. However, health related exposure outcomes are dynamic and can vary depending on several factors, including the environmental characteristics of freshwater environments and their surroundings. Developing and managing inland blue spaces to promote health and wellbeing therefore requires an understanding of whether specific freshwater attributes, and prevailing weather conditions, enhance or devalue landscape aesthetics. The aim of this study was to utilise a mixed-methods research approach to investigate aesthetic preferences of inland blue spaces. A three-phase data collection method was adopted involving (i) analysis of a national-scale landscape image dataset; in combination with (ii) a national-scale online survey; and (iii) a series of in-person focus groups. We found environmental characteristics associated with the waterbody itself, as well as the characteristics of the nearby green space, to have a significant impact on the overall aesthetic appeal of inland blue spaces. Strong preference was demonstrated for inland blue spaces perceived to be of a high environmental quality and which have a natural, rather than human-modified, appearance. The findings highlight the need to conserve the quality of both the waterbody and waterside environment to encourage frequent recreational use and maintain the beneficial public health outcomes associated with inland blue spaces.

Environmental technology licensing with multi-product competition in a vertically differentiated duopoly

ABSTRACT In many polluting industries, firms with high environmental quality (HEQ) products often license their new environmental technology to firms with low environmental quality (LEQ) products. After accepting the licensing arrangement, firms with LEQ products can produce both the HEQ and LEQ products and compete with the licensor. What type of licensing mode is optimal under such circumstance becomes an interesting question and warrants analysis. To analyze this issue, we construct a vertical product differentiation duopoly model with multi-product competition. The results show that two-part tariff licensing is always the optimal strategy for the licensor, and it is the optimal licensing strategy as well to improve the environment and social welfare only when the degree of product environmental quality differentiation is relatively high.

Status of Local Populations of Isolated Mountain Lakes in the Altai by Histological Parameters and Elemental Composition of the Eye Lens of Peled Fish <i>Coregonus peled</i>

This paper examines the state of the population of a native fish species in three lakes of the Altai Mountains. Analysis of the age and weight composition showed that in the studied water bodies in conditions of oligotrophic mountain lakes the pelad Coregonus peled Gmelin, 1788 population showed different growth dynamics. The age distribution of fish varied in different lakes, so in Lake Kedelu-Kol individuals of four age groups (1+ …4+) were present, and in Lake Kidelu only yearlings were caught. Histological examination of the liver and gills of fish showed the absence of significant abnormalities, both of parasitic and toxicological nature. Calculation of the histopathological index showed that the prevalence and severity of pathological abnormalities were significantly lower (p 0.05) in Lake Kidelu. The analysis of the elemental composition of peled lens confirmed the absence of a significant level of pollution in the studied water bodies and the high quality of the aquatic environment. The presence in some samples of trace amounts of heavy metals may be associated with the geomorphological features of the region involved in the formation of the hydrochemical composition of the water of the studied lakes. The data obtained in the study indicate that the peled populations in the isolated mountain lakes of the

Economic Growth and Environmental Pollution in Tanzania: An Environmental Kuznets Curve Analysis

The creation of a long-term linkage between economic growth and environmental protection is a subject of an ongoing discussion among scholars and policymakers. The relationship between environmental quality and economic growth is viewed from two different angles. According to the first, it is impossible to protect the environment and increase the economy at the same time since doing so will inevitably result in the extinction of either one or both. The other contends that economic advancement and higher environmental quality can be achieved simultaneously since increasing economic growth raises income levels, which in turn increases the demand for environmental protection. However, there is a disagreement over how much environmental resources should be exploited to support rapid economic expansion. This study used the approach of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis to investigate the relationship between economic growth and environmental pollution in Tanzania. Tanzania’s economy annual data from 1970 to 2018 was used in the ARDL bounds testing for cointegration procedures. The evidence suggests that environmental pollution and economic growth have a U-shaped relationship, which rules out the existence of a traditional EKC in Tanzania. Like in many emerging economies, environmental pollution is anticipated to rise in Tanzania if economic expansion continues beyond a threshold level. The U-shaped link between economic growth and environmental pollution is important for policy formulation because both economic growth and a clean environment are welfare-enhancing; therefore, it is possible to have two policies that are mutually supportive rather than antagonistic. This can be achieved by having a proper environmental, legal, and institutional frameworks.

Сучасні підходи до бюджетної децентралізації

Introduction. Decentralization in Ukraine, the new stage of which began in 2014, in particular regarding the redistribution of powers and financial resources between the levels of the budget system, played a positive role in ensuring the livelihood of communities under martial law after the start of full-scale Russian aggression. Problem Statement. In domestic scientific opinion, attention is usually paid either to the applied aspects of budgetary (fiscal, financial) decentralization, or to the analysis of classic works of representatives of the first and second generations of fiscal decentralization. At the same time, any practical measures require the study of theoretical foundations, including those that have been developed over decades and those that have developed in recent years. The purpose is to generalize the work of foreign scientists on fiscal decentralization, which cover the first and second generation of theories, as well as relate to currently relevant issues. Methods. General scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, grouping, generalization, etc. are used. Results. An analysis of the theories of fiscal decentralization of the first and second generation was carried out, in particular in the aspects of increasing accountability and transparency of the government system, balanced (centralized and decentralized) provision of local public goods, the influence of endogenous and exogenous factors on its overall effect, theories of social choice, etc. The issue of fiscal decentralization, which is currently the subject of research by scientists, is considered: the impact on economic growth and human development, the dependence of the positive effect on the quality of the institutional environment, the role in anti-crisis regulation, the ratio of advantages and disadvantages in countries with developed economies, newly industrialized countries and cranes that are developing Conclusions. A certain consensus of scientists has been formed on the positive impact of decentralized systems, implemented worldwide over the last few decades, on socioeconomic development and growth of the economy, especially subject to proper substantiation of relevant reforms. At the same time, the impact on human development is ambiguous and depends on many internal and external factors. A sufficiently high quality of the institutional environment is a prerequisite for the successful course of the fiscal decentralization. In centralized countries, which are characterized by a rather rigid mechanism of economic regulation, fiscal decentralization is not only possible but also causes positive consequences, although they do not always coincide with the results of countries with liberal economies. Fiscal decentralization also justifies itself in emergency situations, which confirms the example of Ukraine after the start of full-scale Russian aggression, when communities have shown the ability to respond quickly to internal and external challenges, including accepted and satisfied the urgent needs of several millions of internally displaced persons.

Landscape Pattern Changes and Climate Response in Nagqu Hangcuo National Wetland Park in the Tibetan Plateau

Wetlands are vital ecosystems in the Tibetan Plateau that play a crucial role in water conservation, flood storage, and biodiversity maintenance. They are sensitive to climate change and typically have high ecological and environmental quality levels due to minimal human disturbance. This study aimed to quantify landscape pattern changes within the Nagqu Hangcuo National Wetland Park (NNWP) and identify the impact of climate on wetland change. Using remote sensing data from six periods (1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, and 2015), dynamic change analysis, landscape pattern analysis, and correlation analysis were employed to determine the evolutionary features of the wetland landscape and explore their relationship with climatic factors. The results showed that the total wetland area increased from 15.11 km2 in 1990 to 15.23 km2 in 2015. The meadow area increased the most among landscape types, primarily converted from swamps. Over 25 years, the fragmentation of the NNWP’s landscape increased while diversity decreased and its shape became more complex. Meadows were more sensitive to climatic factors than other landscape types, with correlation coefficients between wetland separation and sunshine duration being more significant than other climatic factors. Therefore, it is imperative to monitor landscape pattern changes and the effects of climate change to better protect wetland parks through long-term planning, suitable mechanisms, and advanced technology.
