Landscape Ecological Security Pattern

Yu Kongjian believes that there is a potential spatial pattern in the landscape, which is composed of some key local, point and location relationships. This pattern plays a key role in maintaining and controlling a certain ecological process, and it is called Security patterns (SP for short). At the same time, it is believed that the landscape ecological security pattern can be identified and designed through the spatial analysis of the potential surface of the ecological process, so as to effectively control the ecological process. Whether the landscape is homogeneous or heterogeneous, the importance of each point in the landscape to a certain ecological process is different. There are some local, point and spatial relationships that play a key role in controlling the landscape level ecological process. These local, point and spatial relationships constitute the landscape ecological security pattern.
