Development of appropriate tourism infrastructure is important for protected areas that allow public access for tourism use.This is meant to avoid or minimize unfavourable impacts on natural resources through guiding tourists for proper use.In this paper,a GIS-based method,the least-cost path（LCP） modelling,is explored for planning tourist tracks in a World Heritage site in Northwest Yunnan（China）,where tourism is increasing rapidly while appropriate infrastructure is almost absent.The modelling process contains three steps：1） selection of evaluation criteria（physical,biological and landscape scenic） that are relevant to track decision; 2） translation of evluation criteria into spatially explicit cost surfaces with GIS,and 3） use of Dijkstra＇s algorithm to determine the least-cost tracks.Four tracks that link main entrances and scenic spots of the study area are proposed after optimizing all evaluation criteria.These tracks feature lowenvironmental impacts and high landscape qualities,which represent a reasonable solution to balance tourist use and nature conservation in the study area.In addtion,the study proves that the LCP modelling can not only offer a structured framwork for track planning but also allow for different stakeholders to participate in the planning process.It therefore enhances the effectivenss of tourism planning and managemnt in protected areas.  相似文献   

Cosmogenic isotope (Cl) surface exposure dating of the Norber erratics, Yorkshire Dales: Further constraints on the timing of the LGM deglaciation in Britain

Cosmogenic isotope (³⁶Cl) surface exposure dating of four of the erratic boulders at Norber in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, northwest England, yielded mean ages of ∼22.2 ± 2.0 ka BP and ∼18.0 ± 1.6 ka BP for their emplacement. These two mean values derive from different ³⁶Cl production rates used for exposure age calculation. The ages are uncorrected for temporal variations in production rates and may underestimate the true ages by 5-7%. The former age, although implying early deglaciation for this area of the British ice sheet, is not incompatible with minimum deglaciation ages from other contexts and locations in northwest England. However, the latter age is more consistent with the same minimum deglaciation ages and geochronological evidence for ice-free conditions in parts of the northern sector of the Irish Sea. Within uncertainties, the younger of the mean ages from Norber may indicate that boulder emplacement was associated with North Atlantic Heinrich event 1. The limited spatial (downvalley) extent of the Norber boulders implies that at the time of their deposition the ice margin was coincident with the distal margin of the erratic train. Loss of ice cover at Norber was followed by persistent stadial conditions until the abrupt opening of the Lateglacial Interstadial when large carnivorous mammals colonised the area. The ³⁶Cl ages are between ∼3.0 ka and ∼13.0 ka older than previous estimates based on rates of limestone dissolution derived from the heights of pedestals beneath the erratics.  相似文献

王晓文  曾从盛 《湿地科学与管理》2006,2(3):8-11

城市湿地是城市景观单元中最重要的近自然空间,在城市湿地景观建设中协调湿地的自然生态功能与经济、文化功能之间关系,是城市景观生态建设的重要内容,也是促进城市可持续发展的重要因素。本文在分析城市湿地生态功能的基础上,对比国内外在城市湿地景观建设实践上的差异,运用景观生态学原理,提出了城市湿地景观建设应该遵循的4个原则,即生态性、连续性和整体性、乡土性和美学的原则。  相似文献

以广东省佛山市顺德区为研究对象,在GIS平台下,根据1979、1990和2000年遥感影像解译获取的景观动态数据,分析了最近20多年顺德区景观格局动态变化规律。结果表明,顺德区城市化的迅速发展,使得该区的基塘地、耕地和林地大面积退化,而居民地面积大幅度升高。在此基础上,分析了顺德区景观格局变化的驱动因子,并提出了维持经济可持续发展所需要解决的若干问题及建议。  相似文献   

基于DBI和稀疏轨迹数据的交通状态精细划分与识别

浮动车轨迹数据已逐渐成为城市交通状态识别的主要数据源之一,但是现有基于浮动车轨迹数据的交通状态识别中多数是应用高精度或是多源轨迹数据。针对稀疏轨迹数据在城市交通状态识别中存在识别精度不高的问题,本文提出一种结合戴维森堡丁指数（DBI）和轨迹相似性度量的动态交通状态划分方法。首先,对轨迹数据和路网数据进行预处理并且建立不同时间片的路段轨迹集合;接着,依据轨迹速度-空间相似性,利用戴维森堡丁指数动态地扩展轨迹的空间维度,并根据轨迹相似性度量方法构建最佳车辆队列;然后,将前后不同的车辆队列进行二次处理,连接组成交通流簇;最后,基于模糊C均值聚类方法将交通流进行划分,实现路段交通状态的识别。采用厦门市厦禾路、湖滨西路和湖滨南路交叉路段上的真实出租车轨迹数据进行测试,结果表明,本文所提方法保证了车辆队列速度分布与原始轨迹速度分布基本一致,相比对比方法Kmeans++和ST-DBSCAN,本文方法均方根误差平均下降了18.77%和21.22%,并且在不同的实验路段表现更加稳定,可有效、可靠地运用稀疏轨迹数据识别城市交通状态,进而实现城市交通状态的精细分析。  相似文献
