Abstract
Ecological risk assessment (ERA) is a process of predicting the possibility of harmful effects of environmental pollutants on an entire or part of the ecosystem, which is closely connected with the early human health risk assessment. A rational assessment of ecological risks in an urban area can provide great significance for urban landscape pattern optimization, urban ecological risk warning mechanism establishment, and urban ecological environment risk reduction. This study is based on GIS system to assess the ecological risk of land use in Chongqing in 2020, according to the basic theoretical framework and method system of ecological risk assessment. The main process is using remote sensing image data to construct the Ecological Risk Index (ERI) from the perspective of landscape patterns to reflect the potential impact of resource-based urban land use on the ecological environment. In addition, the ArcGIS spatial analysis method was used to evaluate Chongqing's ecological risk. As a result, high-risk area close to the water body just occupied a small part of Chongqing City (around 5%) and this area should be taken into protective measures urgently.
