Article Preview

Abstract:

Weihe river system, which played an important role in the construction and development of cities in history, is the basic frame of the geographical environment in Xi’an area. In the process of accelerated urbanization, the ecological environment of the river system has been greatly damaged, which seriously constrained the sustainable development of local area. Aiming at improving regional landscape pattern and ecological development of cities, this thesis puts forward the conception of constructing Weihe river system ecological corridors in Xi’an area, analyzes the concept and features of corridors, and proposes the basic principles in construction. The methods of constructing ecological corridors are discussed from macro-view, middle-view and micro-view respectively.
