| 英文摘要 | Protected areas (PAs) are vital for biodiversity conservation and ecosystem services, but their benefits are unevenly distributed. However, the extent of this inequality remains unclear. A quantitative accessibility-availability framework is developed to evaluate the spatial equality of PAs in China. Using data on 3,710 PAs, a county-level spatial distribution index is constructed by combining road-network accessibility (distance to the nearest PA) and availability (PA quantity and coverage) across 2,859 county-level divisions. Distributional equality is summarized with the Gini coefficient, supplemented by spatial clustering and Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR). Results reveal four main patterns: (i) approximately one-third of county-level divisions lack any PA sites, and PA quantity is more unevenly distributed than coverage rates; (ii) accessibility analysis shows an average road distance of 56.57 km to the nearest PA (maximum 503.45 km), with half of all county-level divisions located within 40 km; (iii) pronounced regional asymmetries emerge-eastern, northeastern, and central China host 62.9% of PA sites but only 8.3% of total PA area, whereas western China contains 37.1% of sites and 91.7% of area-indicating fragmented, small PAs in the east versus large, sparse PAs in the west; and (iv) GWR identifies population, road length, GDP per capita, and biodiversity value as the dominant correlates of spatial equality, reflecting the combined demographic, infrastructural, economic, and ecological determinants shaping inequality. Policy implications for PA system planning: (i) integrating spatial equality into PA planning objectives; (ii) prioritizing new PAs near urban and densely populated regions; (iii) enhancing connectivity and gateway infrastructure in remote regions; (iv) supporting small and community-based PAs; and (v) integrating public health into PA planning. Embedding the Gini-based accessibility-availability metric in national and provincial planning can advance an inclusive, just, and ecologically effective PA system. |
