生态可持续与经济发展之间的矛盾难以解决，特别是在贫困农村地区。不幸的是，极端贫困和生物多样性热点往往在地理上重合。在这里，我们选择了中国秦岭山区生物多样性热点金水流域，研究保护项目下社会生态系统的可持续性，即1978年建立佛坪国家级自然保护区（FNNP）以及自2000年以来实施天然林保护计划（NFCP）和退耕还林工程（GGP）。我们利用遥感陆地卫星分析了土地利用/土地覆盖变化。在 1978 年、1994 年、2000 年和 2007 年的生长季节获得的 MSS/TM/ETM 图像。我们还收集了 FNNP 中大熊猫（Ailuropoda melanoleuca，世界上最受认可的保护旗舰物种之一）的种群、社会经济环境以及当地农民的态度和看法的信息。结果表明，保护项目有效保护了现有森林，促进了植被恢复和经济发展，同时FNNP的大熊猫种群数量大幅增加。生活在不同人类干扰强度地区的农民普遍对 GGP 表现出类似的积极态度。在轻度和中度扰动区，大多数农户对GGP后的环境变化表现出积极的认知，但在强烈扰动区，大多数农户的认知是负面的。我们的研究结果对恢复/保护项目具有重要意义，特别是在发展中国家的贫困农村地区。
The conflicts between ecological sustainability and economic development are difficult to resolve, especially in poverty-stricken rural areas. Unfortunately, extreme poverty and biodiversity hotspots are often geographically coincident. Here, we selected the Jinshui watershed, a biodiversity hotspot in China’s Qinling Mountains, to study the sustainability of the social–ecological systems under conservation projects, i.e., establishment of the Foping National Nature Reserve (FNNP) in 1978 and implementation of the Natural Forest Conservation Program (NFCP) and the ‘Grain-for-Green’ Program (GGP) since 2000. We analyzed land use/land cover change using remotely sensed Landsat MSS/TM/ETM imagery obtained in the growing season of 1978, 1994, 2000, and 2007. We also collected information on the population of giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca, one of the world’s most recognized flagship species for conservation) in the FNNP, socio-economic circumstances, and local farmers’ attitudes and perceptions. The results showed that the conservation projects had effectively protected the existing forests, facilitated vegetation recovery and economic development, and meanwhile the giant panda population in the FNNP had considerably increased. Farmers living in zones with varying human disturbance intensities generally showed similarly positive attitudes towards the GGP. In the slightly- and moderately-disturbed zones, most farmers showed positive perceptions to environmental changes after the GGP, but the perceptions of most farmers in the intensely-disturbed zone were negative. Our findings have important implications for restoration/conservation projects, especially in poverty-stricken rural areas in developing countries.
