长江中下游湖泊保护和管理的若干建议

COUNTERMEASURES FOR PROTECTION AND MANAGEMENT OF LAKES IN MIDDLE AND LOWER REACHES OF THE YANGTZE RIVER

长江中下游地区是我国面向21世纪的经济重地,长江是我国唯一具有全国意义的战略水源地,是我国水资源供需平衡的最后防线。然而在自然演化宏观背景下,流域经济的高速发展,大规模开发利用等人类活动的强烈影响,引发了一系列负面环境效应。湖泊湿地生态环境被破坏问题严重,突出表现在生态调节和自我恢复功能大幅度降低,并已造成了严重的生态后果,危及长江水系的生态平衡,影响了区域经济的可持续发展。在大量野外考察和调查基础上,针对长江中下游湖泊湿地当前的生态环境状况及存在的问题,提出了若干对策和建议。

The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are economically important in 21th century, with the water source of national strategic importance. The area is the last defence for the balance of water supply in our country. However, with the macro background of natural evolvement,the high-speed development of valley economics and the deep effect by human activities, for example, large-scale exploitation , a series of negative environmental effects appears. Of them the most serious problem is the destroyment of lakes, especially the large degradation of the ability to adjust ecological environment and self-recover, which has brought bad ecological result, and has already threatened the ecological balance in the Yangtze River, and affected the continuous development of territorial economics.Based on investigations into the situation and problem of the ecological environment of the lakes in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, some countermeasures were suggested for the protection and management of lakes.
