Abstract:Shandong province is a pilot province for ecological protection red lines, and the evaluation of ecological protection effectiveness is one of the requirements for the construction of an ecological province. Shandong section of the Yellow River Basin is located in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, and urbanization, industrialization, and transportation infrastructure construction have caused significant disturbance to ecological environment of the region. Based on remote sensing monitoring technology, selecting ecological indicators from water source conservation, soil and water conservation, and biodiversity maintenance, relying on the "sky air ground" integrated monitoring technology system, the "big data" of the ecological protection red line has been obtained, and an ecological function evaluation model of ecological protection red line in Shandong section of the Yellow River Basin has been constructed. The annual rating and interannual variation monitoring of terrestrial ecosystem functions have been achieved, and a quantitative scheme for ecological effectiveness of ecological protection red line has been formed. It is indicated that: ① The surface ecological quality in Shandong section of the Yellow River Basin is relatively stable, with a dynamic ecological change rate of only 0.00848 from 2022 to 2023. The ecological quality status is a dimensionless standardized result, with a value range between 0 and 1. 0.2 as the classification basis, and ecological quality status in Shandong section of the Yellow River Basin in 2022 and 2023 is at a moderate level. ② From the perspective of landscape pattern analysis, the average patch area and aggregation index of the ecological protection red line area in Shandong section of the Yellow River Basin have changed relatively little, and landscape pattern in the region has basically remained intact. ③The evaluation score for ecological protection red line protection effectiveness in Shandong section of the Yellow River Basin in 2023 is 80.75, which belongs to "good" level. Among them, Lixia district of Ji'nan city and Juancheng county of Heze city score the highest in ecological protection effectiveness, with scores of 87.317 and 82.371 respectively. The ecological protection red line system will continue to play a key role in maintaining national ecological security, promoting green development transformation, and enhancing ecological environment governance capabilities. Accompanying with continuous promotion of ecological civilization construction, optimizing and improving ecological protection red line system is an important direction for future ecological management.
