Ecological Integrity Evaluation of Organically Evolved Cultural Landscape

Abstract

When the traditional method is used to evaluate the cultural landscape as a whole, due to the lack of historical and cultural factors, the impact of the ecological environment on the landscape change is not considered. Therefore, it cannot objectively reflect the law of landscape change. Therefore, from the perspective of the combination of cultural landscape composition characteristics and cultural ecological characteristics, this paper puts forward the concept of cultural ecological integrity based on the existing concept of cultural heritage integrity, aiming at the organic evolution of cultural landscape in cultural landscape heritage, and expounded the dynamic sustainability and effectiveness of natural environment and social environment on the process of cultural landscape. Considering the relevant characteristics and different forms of cultural landscape and cultural ecological integrity, according to the concept of cultural ecological integrity, this paper gave the principles and standards of cultural landscape ecological integrity evaluation and put forward the evaluation method of cultural ecological integrity. At the same time, each index in the ecological integrity evaluation model was decomposed and explained. Finally, taking the cultural heritage of Long-men Grottoes as an example, the paper used the cultural and ecological integrity evaluation model proposed in this paper to evaluate the material cultural landscape, intangible cultural landscape, and local traditional dwellings of Long-men Grottoes and made a comparative analysis between the control group and the observation group. The results showed that the cultural landscape ecological integrity evaluation model proposed in this paper can not only objectively evaluate the cultural landscape but also provide a certain theoretical and practical reference for the effective classification, protection and sustainable development, and utilization of the subsequent cultural landscape.
