Abstract:Comprehensive consolidation and ecological restoration have a positive promoting effect on ensuring regional ecological quality, optimizing ecological security patterns, and enhancing the value of ecosystem services. Zoning of comprehensive consolidation and ecological restoration of land space is an indispensable and important part of the arrangement of projects. Taking Zhaoping County, Hezhou City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region as an example, a zoning method of comprehensive consolidation and ecological restoration of land space was proposed based on Potential-Motivation-Pressure framework for county-level. The main conclusions were as follows: the potential of comprehensive consolidation was mainly analyzed from the aspects of new arable land potential, arable land quality improving potential, land development potential, land reclamation potential, rural construction land potential and urban construction land potential. While the potential of ecological restoration was mainly analyzed from the aspects of vegetation coverage potential, water conservation potential, windbreak and sand fixation potential and biodiversity potential. In the motivation index, the overall level of normalized difference vegetation index was relatively high, the overall level of forest coverage was relatively high, and the grassland coverage rate was significantly higher in the north than that in the south. The distribution pattern of water area ratio was higher in the west and lower in the east, and the spatial distribution of construction land area ratio was uneven. In the pressure index, the per capita arable land area was higher in the south than that in the north, the per capita GDP was higher in the east and lower in the west, and the per capita net income of rural residents was higher in the northwest and lower in the southeast. Zoning of comprehensive consolidation and ecological restoration of land space showed that there was one town in Zhaoping County that belonged to the priority rectification and restoration area, four towns that belonged to the key rectification and restoration area and seven townships that belonged to the moderate rectification and restoration area. The research results had important guiding significance for the arrangement and engineering layout of comprehensive consolidation and ecological restoration of land space.
