Analysis and Optimization of Urban Metropolitan Landscape Patterns

Yining Zhang, Zhigang Wang

Abstract


The Shijiazhuang metropolitan area, located in northern China, is characterized by high population density and rapid economic
activity, but also faces acute urban environmental challenges. These include a highly fragmented green space system, significant ecological
stress, and degradation of ecosystem services. As a key indicator of ecological conditions, landscape patterns merit rigorous analysis to inform
strategies that can enhance urban ecosystem functionality and improve residents quality of life.
??This study employs quantitative methods using high-resolution remote sensing data to assess the current state, temporal dynamics, and
spatial connectivity of landscape patterns within the study area, with particular attention to habitat degradation and ecological fragmentation.
Based on these analyses, targeted recommendations are proposed to support ecological restoration and urban spatial optimization.
??The findings are expected to inform urban ecological improvement strategies for Shijiazhuang, contribute to the design of resilient
and inclusive public spaces, and ultimately enhance urban vitality. Furthermore, this research provides actionable insights for urban
planning across northern China and offers a replicable framework for cities of comparable scale, reinforcing its broad applicability and
practical value.
