Abstract
Natural disturbance and human-caused disturbance of estuary wetland ecosystem were identified. The effects of natural disturbance such as sea level rise, typhoon and storm tide, and human-caused disturbance such as reclamation, coastal engineering, environmental pollution and natural conservation area construction, on the structure and function of estuary wetland ecosystem were analyzed. The results show that human-caused disturbance has become the main driving force for estuary wetland landscape evolution. The healthiness of estuary wetland ecosystem may be realized through regulating and controlling all types of disturbance.
