  • Abstract
Landscape ecological planning here is addressed to the issues of landscape patterns, landscape ecological process and interactions between human activities and landscapes. Building on existing landscape ecology and ecological planning methods, we developed a method for landscape ecological planning by applying Ecological Service Value (ESV) and Landscape Fragmentation (LF) analysis. Using classified Landsat TM (May 20, 2006) images, we quantified the regional ESV and LF for Lianyungang City. A spatial differentiation map of ESV and LF overlays was used to create a map of landscape ecological planning. Scenarios for landscape ecological planning were represented in 4 major functional zones for Lianyungang City, including optimized, emphasized, restricted and forbidden development zones.
