重庆三峡库区生态安全研究

Through survey of present ecological security situation of the mountainous region in Three Gorges reservoir area of Chongqing, the reasons for threatening ecological security in Three Gorges reservoir area are analyzed. It is pointed out that planting in steep slope, over reclamation and graze, excessive cutting firewood and utilization of land and biological resources, vegetation distruction, unsuitable development mountain areas and construction of factory and town, and untreated emission waste of work and living are main factors to threat ecological security of Three Gorges reservoir area. The backword production model, extensive cultivation and management, unsuitable structure of industry and so on make ecological system further worsen. Finally, the countermeasures and proposes of establishing ecological security system including the accelerating natural protection region construction, putting small basin construction and stereoscopic agriculture construction into practice, and returning the grainplots to forestry are put forward.
