景观生态学复习（Review of landscape ecology） Review of landscape ecology.Txt Courseware arrangement (2) First, noun interpretation 1. plaque and disturbance plaque A patch is a non linear surface area that differs from the surrounding environment or substrate in appearance Disturbed plaque is a type of plaque that develops due to local disturbances in a matrix 2. residual patches and environmental resources patches A small area that is undisturbed by the widespread disturbance of the land around it, such as small patches of woodland surrounded by suburbs and small plots of wood left behind by fires If the occurrence of patches is due to environmental heterogeneity, such as swamps in the forests and low lying wetlands in farmland, they are patches of environmental resources 3. edge effect The first refers to the edge effect of ecotone species richness increased. At present, landscape ecology, edge effect refers to the difference between the patch edge and internal habitat and species distribution on the edge and interior. 4. corridors and ecological corridors Corridors are long and narrow regions, such as roads and roads, forest belts, rivers and riparian forest belts A corridor composed of water, vegetation and other ecological structural elements 5. landscape connectivity Landscape connectivity is an index to measure landscape ecological process and ecological function. It is a biological measure of connectivity between spatial structure units, including structural connectivity and functional connectivity in two aspects 6. landscape contrast Landscape contrast refers to the dissimilarity between different landscape units in the vicinity. If the difference between adjacent landscape elements is very large, narrow transition zone and clear, it can be considered a high contrast landscape, conversely, for the low contrast landscape. 7. landscape boundaries The landscape boundary is a heterogeneous transitional area existing in a relatively homogeneous landscape at a particular
