“Significant progress has been made in the study of ecosystem service functions in mining areas. As a research case, the Ningdong large-scale coal base evaluated the spatiotemporal evolution of five ecosystem service functions, including climate regulation, windbreak and sand fixation, carbon sequestration and oxygen release, water source conservation, and soil conservation, using remote sensing data-driven methods. The results indicate that from 2001 to 2019, the overall ecosystem service functions of Ningdong Base showed an improvement trend, but the production activities in the mining area had a certain lag effect on the increase of ecosystem service functions. The rate of increase in ecosystem services in non mining areas is generally higher than that in mining areas, indicating that coal mining activities have had a certain negative impact on the ecosystem. This study not only provides a new perspective for remote sensing monitoring of the ecological system status in mining areas, but also provides important references for ecological protection and restoration. In the future, it is still necessary to further increase efforts in ecosystem protection and restoration to address the challenges brought by climate change and human activities.”
