生态修复是提升生态环境质量,实现自然资源的可持续使用,解决环境污染、恢复自然生态平衡的过程,从提出"生态修复"这个概念至今,国内外学者及科研机构已有大量工作和研究成果.本研究基于Web of Science核心数据库和CNKI核心数据库,筛选SCI论文216 篇和中文核心231 篇,使用CiteSpace软件进行分析,系统梳理生态修复的研究思路与方法、应用案例、存在问题及未来研究重点.主要结论如下:1)生态修复研究主题从最开始的单一生态系统逐渐转向多维度耦合,研究方法也从人工干预修复向近自然修复手段发展;2)针对不同生态系统类型均有各自的生态修复方法,缺点是修复方式单一、缺乏对整体生态系统效应的研究;3)生态修复主要存在缺乏对生态系统整体性的恢复措施,缺乏多维度、多类型、多方式组合的综合治理与修复方案、理论研究未与实践相结合等问题.未来研究重点应从整体性角度推进生态修复研究,开展多要素协同生态修复实践工程,发展更多区域与国家之间的合作,加强多对象、多尺度的生态修复.
Research progress and prospect of ecological restoration
Ecological restoration is a process of improving the quality of ecological environment,realizing the sustainable use of natural resources,solving environmental pollution and restoring the balance of natural ecology.Since the concept of ecological restoration,scholars and research institutions at home and abroad have done a lot of work and research results.Based on Web of Science core database and CNKI core database,216 SCI studies and 231 Chinese core studies were selected,and CiteSpace software was used to systematically sort out the research ideas and methods,application cases,existing problems and future research priorities of ecological restoration.The main conclusions were as follows:1)The research topic of ecological restoration gradually shifted from a single ecosystem to multi-dimensional coupling,and the research methods also developed from artificial intervention restoration to near natural restoration means;2)There were their own ecological restoration methods for different ecosystem types,and the lack of research on the overall ecosystem effect;3)The lack of restoration measures for ecosystem integrity,the lack of comprehensive management and restoration schemes of multi-dimensional and the combination of theoretical research and practice.The future research should focus on promoting the research direction of ecological restoration from the overall perspective and carrying out multi-factor association with the experience of ecological restoration practice projects,we will develop more cooperation between regions and countries,and strengthen multi-object and multi-scale ecological restoration.
