霍林河露天煤矿区开发的生态影响与恢复研究

该文以内蒙古霍林河露天煤矿为例，在国家九五攻关子专题“大型煤矿生态环境综合整治及其试验示范研究”的支持下对半干旱地区大型露天煤矿开采所造成的生态环境影响与生态恢复的理论与技术问题进行了深入研究.1.从生态环境影响、生态恢复理论与生态恢复技术等方面对露天煤矿区生态环境恢复与重建这一学科领域的发展历程、现状与趋势进行了系统的论述.2.建立了适用于半干旱草原矿区生态环境质量评价的指标体系与模糊数学综合评判模型.3.筛选了沙棘、草木樨等十余种适于半干旱地区矿山生态恢复的植物种类.

Analysis of arable land loss and its impact on rural sustainability in Southern Jiangsu Province of China

Rapid urbanization and industrialization in southern Jiangsu Province have consumed a huge amount of arable land. Through comparative analysis of land cover maps derived from TM images in 1990, 2000 and 2006, we identified the trend of arable land loss. It is found that most arable land is lost to urbanization and rural settlements development. Urban settlements, rural settlements, and industrial park-mine-transport land increased, respectively, by 87 997 ha (174.65%), 81 041 ha (104.52%), and 12 692 ha (397.99%) from 1990 to 2006. Most of the source (e.g., change from) land covers are rice paddy fields and dryland. These two covers contributed to newly urbanized areas by 37.12% and 73.52% during 1990-2000, and 46.39% and 38.86% during 2000-2006. However, the loss of arable land is weakly correlated with ecological service value, per capita net income of farmers, but positively with grain yield for some counties. Most areas in the study site have a low arable land depletion rate and a high potential for sustainable development. More attention should be directed at those counties that have a high depletion rate but a low potential for sustainable development. Rural settlements should be controlled and rationalized through legislative measures to achieve harmonious development between urban and rural areas, and sustainable development for rural areas with a minimal impact on the ecoenvironment.
