Abstract

In order to reduce the ecological damage and economic loss caused by mountain torrent disasters in the flooded basin, it’s very important to realize the self-repair of the ecosystem in a short time. Based on the analysis of the causes of mountain torrents, this paper summarizes three main parts of ecological restoration in the river basin, including rainwater storage, Sedimentation and wetland conservation. Taking a research base in Wenling, Zhejiang Province as an example, this paper also discusses the design methods of the landscape inside mountain torrent basins based on ecological restoration from these parts above. Finally, these methods were obtained and applied in design practice, providing more solutions and theoretical references for the ecological restoration design in the future.

Summary

Introduction

The sudden and heavy rainfall has caused many natural disasters in the flood season, such as mountain torrents, debris flows and landslides. It has caused serious ecological damage as well as economic losses to the river basin, which arises widespread concern from all walks of life[1]. Through the analysis of the causes of mountain torrents, this paper summarizes the three main parts of ecological restoration in the basin, including rainwater storage, sedimentation and wetland conservation. Taking a research base in Wenling, Zhejiang Province as an example, this paper explores the design methods of the landscape inside mountain torrent basin based on ecological restoration. Three theoretical design models, named Water Tree System, Zigzag Ditch and Habitat Archipelago, were obtained and applied in design practice, providing more solutions and theoretical references for the ecological restoration design in the future
