• A spatially-zoned land use simulation framework based on ecosystem services was construct. • Zoning-based land use simulations demonstrated enhanced comprehensive benefits. • Coastal areas exhibit high demand for SR and HM, while inland regions require enhanced PS and CS in the YRD. • The YRD requires clearer boundaries for ecological protection zones and innovative eco-product valorization. Integrating ecosystem services (ESs) into land use planning is critical for achieving socio-ecological sustainability, yet systematic methodologies remain underdeveloped. This study proposes a novel framework that couples ES supply–demand analysis, trade-off assessment, and scenario simulation to optimize land use zoning of the Yellow River Delta, China. Results reveal significant spatial mismatches in the supply and demand of four ESs: coastal areas exhibit high demand for soil retention and habitat maintenance, while inland regions require enhanced provisioning and carbon sequestration services. Based on ES trade-offs and bundles, the study area was partitioned into five management zones: natural evolution, strategic development, and three ecologically vulnerable zones addressing habitat fragmentation, carbon sequestration, and soil erosion. Partition-specific scenario simulations for 2030 demonstrated a 1.03 million CNY ES value increase over global uniform simulations, highlighting superior comprehensive benefits. The simulation revealed significant land use changes include rapid ex...
