ABSTRACT
To sustain ecosystem development, ecosystem quality reflects the basic capabilities of ecosystems.
This study used a three-layer analysis method to explain seismic ecological effects and reveal
the evolution mechanism. The results are as follows: (1) The north had better vegetation growth and
quality than the south, west, and east based on basic characteristics; In terms of stability characteristics,
vegetation growth in the north is better than that in the south, and vegetation quality in the south is better
than that in the north; In addition, in terms of restoration degree, both vegetation growth and vegetation
quality have been restored. (2) A change in the ecosystem pattern is the root cause of ecosystem
quality changes. (3) Ecological effect evolution has the following aspects. The spatial and temporal
changes of background change: the urban area increased by 0.82%, while the grassland and farmland
areas decreased by 0.76% and 0.68%, respectively. The heterogeneity of the background is reflected
in the landscape pattern: the completion of the forest is reduced, the fragmentation is increased,
the actual situation is not improved despite the increase of forest area, and the living space provided
for species is reduced. The background evolution is reflected in the correlation: the forest has a strong
promoting force to the ecosystem change, while the city restrains the development of the ecosystem.
(4) The background evolution is reflected in the coupling relationship: although the coupling relationship
has fluctuations, it is in a benign change. The calculation presented in this paper is rational and objective,
reflecting the evolution of ecosystems.
