Narrative Summary:
National Ecological Security Pattern Planning of China Research:
This research is a pilot project aiming at establishing ecological security patterns at the national scale that will protect the most sensitive ecological landscapes and critical pattern as a strategy for conservation and development. Critical natural processes are analyzed systematically at the national scale, including headwater conservation, soil erosion prevention, storm water management and flood control, combating desertification, and biodiversity conservation. Individual security patterns for safeguarding each of these natural processes are identified and then integrated into an overall ecological security pattern. Three levels of National Ecological Security Pattern are defined, the lower security level, the moderate security level and the higher security level, which account for 34%, 37% and 75% of the national land respectively. This study is expected to provide a scientific basis for the under-going national function zoning and land use planning at the national scale.
