Description

This dataset comprises urban land and ecological services value (ESV) in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region, China, 1985-2050. We used these data to illustrate the comprehensive impacts of urban expansion on ESV based on the proposed conceptual cascade framework. This dataset includes: 1. Land use data, 2. Urban land data, and 3. ESV data.

Steps to reproduce

Land use data from 1985 to 2020 was classified into seven categories (i.e., forestland, scrubland, grassland, farmland, water, construction land, and unused land) using the reclassification technique in ArcGIS. Urban land data from 1985 to 2020 was classified into two categories (i.e., urban land and other land) using the reclassification technique in ArcGIS. Urban land data in 2050 was simulated using the Future Land Use Simulation (FLUS) model. ESV data was calculated using the functional value method, including the InVEST, Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE), and Carnegie-Ames-Stanford Approach (CASA) model, etc.
