From Aesthetics to Ecology: Landscape Restoration Planning of Waste Mine-site Based on Ecological Regeneration

摘要

In the context of the decline of traditional industries,Chinese industrial cities,especially those in the northeast,are now actively adjusting their industrial land use and its layout.The mine-sites left behind represent not only deterioration of the regional ecology,disruption of ecological balance,but also waste of land resources,and further a social problem affecting ecological structure and urban development.Thus,the landscape restoration of waste mine-sites through ecological regeneration is of great significance.Beginning with the feasibility analysis of landscape restoration of waste mine-site and the case studies from China and overseas,the paper summarizes techniques and modes of eco-restoration of mine-sites and suggests that western countries stress the preservation of historical context and the sense of places along with the utilization of eco-restoration techniques.On this ground,the paper proposes the methods of landscape restoration for mine-sites based on ecological regeneration.By taking eco-regeneration as the objective,landscape planning and design as the method,the paper attempts to combine aesthetics with ecology and concludes with general suggestions regarding the landscape restoration of China's waste mine-sites.
