Public Perception of Biodiversity along Countryside Greenways:A Case Study of Qingshan Lake Greenway in Hangzhou
Studying the public's perception of biodiversity is of great significance for optimizing the planning and design of rural greenways and the conservation of urban and rural biodiversity.With Hangzhou Qingshan Lake Greenway for a case study,this paper divides the greenway into sections,conducts biodiversity assessment in each section,and investigates the public perception of biodiversity using questionnaire survey and individual interviews.The results show that the public satisfaction with biodiversity is positively correlated with overall visitor satisfaction.The public has the ability to accurately perceive the level of biodiversity,and gives a higher evaluation of biodiversity in the areas with complex vegetation structure and good hydrophilicity.Respondents with low education are more satisfied with biodiversity than respondents with high education,and higher satisfaction with biodiversity is observed among respondents who make multiple visits and longer stay.Based on these findings,strategies are put forward to provide scientific guidance for balancing the relationship between biodiversity conservation and public recreation,such as construction of a rich vegetation structure,emphasis on hydrophilic space creation,and landscape facilities design in combination with biodiversity science.
