The pairwise interaction of environmental factors for ecosystem services relationships in karst ecological priority protection and key restoration areas

Understanding the relationships among ecosystem services (ESs) and exploring their driving factors is required for the efficient eco-environment management of karst regions. This is especially so for ES hotspot/coldspot areas that would deserve priority protection/key governance. In this study, four...
