Abstract:

China is one of the world’s largest ecological sensitive areas(ESAs), with the greatest varieties of vulnerable ecological types and the most notable manifestation of ecological vulnerability. In the presented work, features of regional housing environment are analyzed in the northwestern settlements of dry oasis edge through the line of macro bancground. Farmers’ housing spaces are constrained by windy, sandy, hot, dry and eroded environments.Therefore, famers bring about uncertain attitude towards harsh conditions and develop correspondent distributing patterns, structural features, materials and technology in local community. The reason about the lacking adaptability of housing environment is that people doubt the environmental adaptability of these local houses using Generates Technology( low-cost, low power, low-tech) as a result of further deterioration of ecological environment. The work is to explore human’s constructing behavior in the ESAs located in northwest arid oasis edge, expecting to find the way to further research.
