Developing a Planning Model for the Construction of Ecological Corridors for Low-Carbon Ecological Cities: A Case Study of the Shenzhen International Low-Carbon City

Article Preview

Abstract:

This study proposes a planning model for developing an ecological corridor in the proposed low-carbon city in Shenzhen. Employing research methods involving RS, GIS, and landscape indicator analysis, this paper identifies the priority strategic points (links) for the development of an ecological corridor in the study region. Based on the findings of the research, this study suggests several operational strategies for ecological corridor planning and related land development management.
