This study developed a Modified Remote Sensing Ecological Index (MRSEI) using satellite imagery and Human Footprint data to assess ecological quality across 14 cities surrounding the Wuyi Mountains. We applied Sen\u2019s slope analysis, the Mann\u2013Kendall test, and spatial autocorrelation to evaluate spatiotemporal ecological changes from 2000 to 2020, and used partial correlation analysis to explore the drivers of these changes. The main findings are as follows: (1) Ecological quality generally improved over the study period, with significant year-to-year fluctuations. The eastern region, characterized by higher altitudes, consistently exhibited better ecological quality than the western region. The area of low-quality ecological zones significantly decreased, while Ji\u2019an, Ganzhou, Heyuan, and Meizhou saw the most notable improvements. In contrast, urban areas experienced a marked decline in ecological quality. (2) The region is undergoing warming and wetting trends. Increased precipitation, especially in the western and northern regions, improved ecological quality, except in urban areas, where it heightened flood risks. Rising temperatures had mixed effects: they enhanced ecological quality in high-altitude areas (~516 m) but negatively impacted low-altitude regions (~262 m) due to intensified heat stress. (3) Although industrial restructuring reduced environmental pressure, rapid population growth and urban expansion created new ecological challenges. This study provides an innovative method for the ecological monitoring of hilly regions, effectively integrating human activity and climatic factors into ecological assessments. The findings offer valuable insights for sustainable development and ecological management in similar sensitive regions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16244731","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,18]],"date-time":"2024-12-18T09:43:03Z","timestamp":1734514983000},"page":"4731","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Application of a Modified Ecological Quality Monitoring Method in the Southeastern Hilly Region of China"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Yusheng","family":"Huang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geography Sciences, Fujian Normal University, Fuzhou 350117, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xinyue","family":"Fu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geography Sciences, Fujian Normal University, Fuzhou 350117, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jinming","family":"Sha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geography Sciences, Fujian Normal University, Fuzhou 350117, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory for Subtropical Mountain Ecology of the Ministry of Science and Technology and Fujian Province, Fujian Normal University, Fuzhou 350117, China"},{"name":"China-Europe Centre for Environment and Landscape Management, Fuzhou 350117, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eshetu","family":"Shifaw","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geography Sciences, Fujian Normal University, Fuzhou 350117, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory for Subtropical Mountain Ecology of the Ministry of Science and Technology and Fujian Province, Fujian Normal University, Fuzhou 350117, China"},{"name":"Department of Geography and Environment Studies, Wollo University, Dessie 1145, Ethiopia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"104451","DOI":"10.1016\/j.resourpol.2023.104451","article-title":"Synergizing natural resources and sustainable development: A study of industrial structure, and green innovation in Chinese region","volume":"88","author":"Shi","year":"2024","journal-title":"Resour.
