Changes of land use have great impacts on terrestrial ecosystems.The trends of land use changes were analyzed based on the land
social
economic
and environmental data.Using the methods of the composite index and analytic hierarchy process(AHP)
we established the ecological risk assessment systems considering natural
societal
and economic pressure
and evaluated ecological risk index and composite risks of land use structure including cultivated lands
forestlands
grazinglands
and water body.The results showed that the ecological risks were the greatest in cultivated lands
and smallest in water bodies.T he order of the risks is:cultivated land>woodland>land for inhabitation
mining and manufacturing > grazing and pasture land>unutilized land>land for transport facilities>land for water conservancy facilities.The ecological risks caused by economic pressure
nature pressure
and society pressure were greatest
intermediate
and smallest
respectively
while composite risk increased.The ecological risks are related to an unreasonable structure of land-use
increase in population
decrease in water resources and increase of natural disaster.
