Temporal and Spatial Variation of Vegetation in Net Primary Productivity of the Shendong Coal Mining Area, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region
Coal mining can cause significant local environmental damage while driving the regional economy of an area. The key index of net primary productivity (NPP) measures the amount of energy made available in an ecosystem and serves as a useful metric for understanding vegetation restoration in mining areas. This study used a CASA model to estimate the vegetation NPP of the Ordos area of the Shendong coal fields from 2000 to 2019. Model output, human factors, and regional meteorological data were subjected to trend analysis, significance testing, partial correlation analysis, and residual analysis. The NPP data generated by a CASA model inversion approximated measured data to a reasonable degree. The average annual NPP of the vegetation in the study area from 2000 to 2019 was 44.51 g C/m2 a. In general, NPP showed a fluctuating upward trend, with slower increases before 2011 and more rapid increases after 2011. The trend exhibited considerable spatial heterogeneity. Areas with increasing NPP accounted for 21.54% of the study area and occurred mainly in the Dongsheng District, the Kangbashi District, and areas bordering the Ejin Horo Banner. Analysis detected consistent spatial variation between NPP and each factor in the study area. NPP is positively correlated with precipitation and human activities and negatively correlated with air temperature. The change in vegetation cover depended on both human activity and meteorological conditions. In terms of the strength of influence on vegetation NPP, human activity exceeded climate, followed by temperature and precipitation. Although the NPP of vegetation in the region directly affected by coal mining shows a trend of improvement, it is still lower than that in the natural growing region. In the next step, the ecological restoration of vegetation should be further strengthened to achieve regional ecological balance.
