[Ecological environmental effects of land consolidation:Mechanism of action and application path]

Abstract

With the continuous implementation of ecological civilization and the transformation of multi-functional land management, the ecologicalization of land consolidation has entered a critical period of theoretic innovation and practical application. Systematically combing the development of theoretical research and practical exploration of ecological environment effect of land consolidation, and clarifying the service direction and implementation path of the land science discipline research under the "New Era" are urgent for the implementation of the "ecological" land consolidation stra-tegy. We reviewed the literatures on the ecological environment effects of land consolidation in the past 18 years. Using Citespace 1.0 software as analysis tool, we identified the research hotspots of ecological environmental effects of land consolidation, and discussed the mechanism of ecological environmental effects of land consolidation based on the analysis of relationship among ecological environment elements, ecological landscape and ecosystem services. Further, we proposed a new application path of "ecological" land consolidation from the measurement of regional ecosystem service level and the diagnosis of obstacle factors, the impact of land consolidation on regional ecosystem services and its mechanism, and the construction of ecological land consolidation model based on the promotion of ecosystem services, which aimed to provide a scientific basis for the restoration and construction of the life community of "mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes and grasses" in China.

Keywords: ecological environment elements; ecological land consolidation; ecological landscape; ecosystem services; land consolidation.
