Abstract:

【Objective】 From the perspective of ecological security patterns, the study aimed at guiding the protection and utilization of landscape resources in mountainous scenic areas. 【Method】 Taking the Tianmu Mountain Scenic Area in Zhejiang Province as an example, based on the identification of ecological security patterns, ArcGIS geospatial analysis tools and the minimum cumulative resistance model (MCR), and ecological source and natural background conditions of the scenic area, this study constructed a research framework for the protection and utilization of landscape resources in mountainous scenic areas: “ Ecological Source Diagnosis-Security Pattern Identification-Ideal Source Extraction-Protection and Utilization Strategy”.【Result】 The comprehensive ecological security pattern of the scenic areas was constructed through the analysis and identification of the safety patterns of rainwater security, biological protection, cultural heritage protection and geological disasters in the study area. Furthermore, 37 ideal scenic points were finally extracted on the basis of the existing scenery resources in the scenic area, including 32 natural scenic points and five cultural scenic points, combined with the analysis, extraction, and superposition of the natural geographical features of the ideal scenery sources.【Conclusion】 This study proposes a strategy for the protection and utilization of landscape resources in mountainous scenic areas based on the ecological security pattern, the results provide a reference for ecological protection and scenic areas construction related to the mountainous environments.

Key words: mountainous scenic area, landscape resource, ecological security pattern, ArcGIS, Tianmu Mountain Scenic Area in Zhejiang Province
