Discussion and Research on Ecological Planning of Wetland Park in Urban Areas

Abstract

Wetland is the most productive ecological system in the world, and the production and life of human being can’t be separated from its service functions. However, because of the overexploitation of wetland, the area and quantity of wetland have decreased greatly, which has caused many serious problems regarding to environment and sustainable development. Therefore, how to develop and utilize wetland scientifically and solve the contradiction between resource development and environmental protection are hot topics for the research on wetland. In this paper, it discusses the great significance that the construction of wetland part in urban areas has on the protection of urban green system. Besides, it analyzes the objectives and principles for the planning of wetland part from the perspective of ecological planning and illustrates the contents and methods of ecological planning of wetland from the perspectives of sub-region planning, topographical reform, water system planning, road system, planting design and building facilities etc, so as to form a frame for the ecological design and planning of wetland parks in urban areas.
