Urban forests play a crucial role in preserving biodiversity in highly urbanized areas by providing habitats for various species and promoting ecological connectivity. However, managing urban forests presents challenges such as low habitat quality and fragmentation risks. To address these challenges, protected areas serve as a fundamental policy tool. This study analyzes the effect of Greenbelt areas, protected spaces within urban settings, on future land-use and habitat changes. Through morphological analysis of forest areas, this study attempts to analyze the current status of habitats in cities affected by fragmentation and derive the effects of green belts, thereby presenting the direction of biodiversity conservation for city habitats. The Slope, Land-use, Excluded area, Urban, Transportation, Hillshade (SLEUTH) land-use change model was used to predict future land-use changes by applying a scenario that adjusts weights within the Greenbelt areas. In addition, the Morphological Spatial Pattern Analysis (MSPA) Tool was used to derive changes by habitat type, which aided in deriving the implications of the Greenbelt regulation on the habitat. Our findings indicate that Greenbelt regulation effectively prevents the reduction of critical Core areas and minimizes damage to Islets, small patches. Comparisons between Core and Edge areas reveal that Edge areas are more vulnerable to development, and the impact of regulating the Greenbelt area is significant. In addition, Greenbelt regulations can help prevent habitat fragmentation by reducing Perforation, which creates cavities within Core areas. This study quantitatively demonstrated that the Greenbelt can play an important role not only in preventing urban expansion but playing an important role in habitat conservation in cities.

绿地对城市森林栖息地的影响：形态分析在量化保护效果中的见解


城市森林为各种物种提供栖息地并促进生态连通性，在保护高度城市化地区的生物多样性方面发挥着至关重要的作用。然而，管理城市森林面临着栖息地质量低下和破碎化风险等挑战。为了应对这些挑战，保护区是一项基本的政策工具。本研究分析了绿化带区域、城市环境中的受保护空间对未来土地利用和栖息地变化的影响。本研究试图通过对森林面积的形态分析，分析受破碎化影响的城市生境现状，推导绿化带的影响，从而提出城市生境生物多样性保护的方向。坡度、土地利用、排除区域、城市、交通、山体阴影 (SLEUTH) 土地利用变化模型用于通过应用调整绿化带区域内权重的场景来预测未来的土地利用变化。此外，形态空间模式分析（MSPA）工具用于推导栖息地类型的变化，这有助于推导绿化带监管对栖息地的影响。我们的研究结果表明，绿化带监管有效地防止了关键核心区域的减少，并最大限度地减少了对小岛和小斑块的损害。核心区和边缘区的比较表明，边缘区更容易受到开发的影响，绿化带区域的调控效果显着。此外，绿化带法规可以通过减少穿孔（穿孔在核心区域内产生空洞）来帮助防止栖息地破碎化。 这项研究定量地表明，绿化带不仅可以在防止城市扩张方面发挥重要作用，而且可以在城市栖息地保护方面发挥重要作用。
