Ecosystem service bundle index construction, spatiotemporal dynamic display, and driving force analysis

Introduction: Existing studies on ecosystem service relationships are mainly qualitative or semi-quantitative assessments, but lack of quantitative exploration of aggregated ecosystem services and their influencing factors. We mapped the distributions of 12 ecosystem services of Zhejiang Province in...
