Abstract
The land-water ecotone is under the influence by the combinatory of natural and human factors, and the adaptability development of its landscape system urgently needs scientific and rational assessment tool. This paper explored the holistic adaptation assessment method of the land-water ecotone in southern Chongming island, based on the landscape physical characteristics analysis from baseline evaluation, and the characteristic zoning from the Landscape Character Assessment tool (LCA). The study formed the adaptation assessment system from three sub-target levels: the importance status of natural resources protection, the suitable situation of land resources utilization and the significant characteristics of environmental security pressures. The assessment system was constructed by 12 selecting indicators, and the adaptation assessment analysis at the factors level and target level was carried out. Six type of adaptation zonings were formed and the promotion strategies for the holistic adaptation of landscape resources were put forward. The research provides the evaluation method and decision support path for the integrated development of land-water Ecotone Landscape system.
