Here, the authors provided a novel approach to assess the dynamics of carbon sequestration in vegetation (VCS) affected by large-scale surface coal mining and subsequent restoration. This approach effectively overcomes the limitations imposed by the lack of finer scale and long-time series data through scale transformation. The findings deepen insights into the intricate relationship between coal resource development and ecological environmental protection.
