Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explore the landscape quality of aquatic plants in the landscape water in Wuhan, reveal the rules of its construction, and provide some basis for landscape design and evaluation of aquatic plants. Based on the six representative parks in Wuhan, 9 quantitative and qualitative indexes were selected, and the evaluation model was constructed by using the analytic hierarchy process(AHP). The results showed that a total of 36 species of aquatic plants were found, mainly emergent plants. The five research objects are in grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ, and only the aquatic plants in Shahu Park are at the level of level Ⅲ, which indicates that the quality of aquatic plants in the main landscape water of Wuhan is at an excellent level. The evaluation model can objectively be used in the Wuhan landscape water body . Based on the evaluation results, 3 excellent aquatic plant plots are recommended.
Highlights
In order to understand the status quo and configuration of aquatic plants in Wuhan water landscape, this study focused on 6 artificial landscape waters in Wuhan.The application status of aquatic plants was investigated, and the landscape quality of aquatic plants was comprehensively analyzed from quantitative and qualitative perspectives by using analytic hierarchy process (AHP)
According to the distribution of aquatic plants in Wuhan, six typical water landscapes were selected as the research objects, including Jiefang Park, Jinyinhu Wetland Park, Wuhan Botanical Garden, Shahu Park, Yuehu Park and Canglongdao Wetland Park
Aquatic plants is wet marshes or the shore zone in water plants, according to plant ecological habits can be divided into four categories: emergent plants, floating leaf plants, floating plants, submerged plants[7,8]
Summary
The study area is located in Wuhan, Hubei Province, ranging from 113°41′~115°05'E and 29°58′~ 31°22'N, which belongs to subtropical monsoon climate. According to the distribution of aquatic plants in Wuhan, six typical water landscapes were selected as the research objects, including Jiefang Park, Jinyinhu Wetland Park, Wuhan Botanical Garden, Shahu Park, Yuehu Park and Canglongdao Wetland Park
