Abstract
The perspective of ecosystem services bundle is virtually a spatial clustering on landscape to mapping the relationship between ecosystem services and support the spatial strategy of landscape management. However, the efficiency of various clustering algorithms for geographically different regions are still in obscurity. In this study, we provided landscape functional zoning as a planning tool based on the ecosystem services bundles formed by carbon sequestration, soil retention and water yield. Then we used four landscape pattern indices to evaluate the performance of six clustering algorithms on landscape functional zoning. The case counties include Lankao, Jinggangshan and Luquan in China. The results showed the Natural Breaks (Jenks) scheme should be the most reasonable zone because of its high aggregated distribution and low diversity. This scheme was adjusted using some other schemes and has been employed as the final 7 kinds of zoning types. There were 5 types appeared in Lankao and Jinggangshan, and 6 types appeared in Luquan. We discussed that landscape functional zone can be a nexus connecting landscape planning and social policy. Rural reconstructing process on landscape was depicted, and landscape functional zone was proposed a practical planning tool bridged human wellbeing. The task of landscape functional zoning with the management indications may provide interdisciplinary support to decision-makers and natural resource users on landscape management.
