Abstract:

Since the mid-1990s, ecological security pattern has gained popularity in the research on ecological construction and environmental protection in the fields of regional landscape design and land planning. Despite abundant research findings and the attention given to this area by many famous scientific and technical journals and scholars, there is still a lack of systematic summaries and analyses for innovating theories, methods, and applications in this field. We used the CiteSpace software to analyze 378 recent publications related to ecological security pattern from CNKI and WOS databases. This paper discusses the trends of ecological security pattern research at home and abroad, aiming to provide references for theoretical research and engineering practices in this field. Research in this area, both at home and abroad, had rapidly increased since 2014, accounting for 77.8% of all publications retrieved from the establishment of the database as of August 10, 2021. These studies were mainly conducted in the disciplines of environmental sciences and ecology related to resources and the environment, accounting for 44.37% of all ecological security pattern research within 15 disciplines. The highly influential and most frequently cited journals included Landscape Urban Plan and Acta Ecologica Sinica (Chinese Journal) that had 57 and 45 citations, respectively. Most authors of highly cited literature were Chinese scholars, who had made great contributions in this field. Ecological corridor and networks had been the primary research focus for the construction of regional ecological security pattern. The enrichment of identification methods for ecological security patterns, their scale effects, and the construction of an elastic network with ecological resilience needs to be explored in depth in the future research. The construction and optimization of ecological security patterns based on key ecological processes, a multi-objective and socio-cultural coupling ecosystems that integrate ecological, economic, and social benefits, and the further innovation of theories and methods for the national major ecological construction strategies are the key directions for the sustainable development of ecological security pattern research.

摘要：

生态安全格局自上世纪九十年代中期以来成为区域景观设计和国土规划等领域生态建设和环境保护研究的热点,众多著名科技期刊和学者开始关注这个领域,取得了大量研究成果,但在理论、方法创新和应用方向等方面的系统总结还较为缺乏。基于CiteSpace软件,以CNKI与WOS数据库中最新的378篇生态安全格局相关文献为研究对象,对国内外生态安全格局研究现状及发展态势进行总结和讨论,旨在为生态安全格局构建理论研究与工程实践提供借鉴。研究发现,2014年以后为国内外研究的蓬勃发展期,此阶段发表的文献成果呈指数增长,占到截至2021年8月10日全部检索文献的77.8%。生态安全格局研究的学科主要为资源环境领域的环境科学和生态学,占比达到44.37%。国际期刊Landscape Urban Plan为被引频次最高期刊,国内期刊《生态学报》具有较高的影响力,共引频次分别达到57和45。国内外高被引文献作者大多为中国学者,中国学者在此领域作出了较大的贡献。生态廊道和生态网络始终是区域生态安全格局构建研究中的热点。未来,丰富生态安全格局识别的方法、生态安全格局的尺度效应、具有生态韧性的弹性网络构建是有待深入探讨的主题。基于关键生态过程,综合考虑生态、经济和社会效益的多目标,社会-文化-生态系统耦合的生态安全格局构建与优化,服务于国家重大生态建设发展战略等理论和方法的进一步创新是生态安全格局研究可持续发展的重点方向。
