Abstract

Based on the landscape data obtained from the data of forest resources inventory in Wuliangshan national nature reserve and its adjacent area,characteristics of broadleaves forest landscape,coniferous forest landscape,fruit forest landscape,shrub land landscape,open forest land landscape,un-stocked forest landscape,grassland landscape,farmland landscape,residential sites landscape and other landscape were studied using 8 landscape indexes of patch number,patch area,patch perimeter,Shannon-Wiener diversity index,evenness index,dominance index,isolation index,patch shape index and dynamic changes of 10 landscapes by Markov model.The results showed that broadleaves forest landscape was the preponderant landscape,open forest land landscape,unstocked forest landscape and residential sites landscape were the inferior landscape,the 6 other landscapes were all in between preponderant and inferior landscape.Broadleaves forest landscape,coniferous forest landscape,fruit forest landscape,un-stocked forest landscape and residential sites landscape would be increasing,shrub land landscape,open forest land landscape,grass landscape and farmland landscape would be decreasing,other landscape would be stable in 20 years in the future.The results from this study are in accordance with the actual situation of the study area.
