自然湿地在维持区域水量平衡、调节区域气候、维护生物多样性等方面发挥着至关重要的作用。由于中国的城市扩张，自然湿地的损失是戏剧性的。近年来，人们提倡采用包括湿地公园在内的基于自然的解决方案来弥补这一损失，并减少脆弱性和灾害风险。因此，在过去的十年里，无论是受到自然湿地的启发，还是在现有湿地生态系统的基础上，中国创建了数以百计的湿地公园。到目前为止，关于湿地公园生态系统服务的研究大多集中在技术角度，很少涉及公众感知；公众对湿地公园的感知还没有得到很好的理解。这项研究使用社交媒体(即新浪微博)访问大量数据，并提供时间和地理粒度。通过对微博的语义分析，了解公众对广州湿地公园生态系统服务的看法。本研究探讨了公众对生态系统服务的认知，并将其与专业机构所传达的生态系统服务进行了比较，探讨了影响公众感知的因素。结果表明，公众感知和机构沟通的前三位生态系统服务功能分别是游憩、美学和避难所/栖息地。人们对娱乐和审美服务的认知之间存在着很强的相互联系。开花植物种类和彩叶树种是影响审美服务感知的最重要的刺激因素，鸟类是避难/栖息地服务感知的关键。这些结果为更好地利用基于自然的解决方案(如湿地公园)管理项目提供了基础，符合公众的期望。
Natural wetlands play a vital role in maintaining regional water balance, regulating regional climate, and maintaining biodiversity. Due to urban sprawl in China, the loss of natural wetlands has been dramatic. In recent years, nature-based solutions, including wetland parks, have been advocated to compensate for this loss and to reduce vulnerability and disaster risks. As a result, inspired by natural wetlands or building on existing wetland ecosystems, hundreds of wetland parks have been created in China over the last decade. Most research on ecosystem services of wetland parks has to date focused on technical perspectives, with only a few addressing public perception; the public's perception of wetland parks is not well understood. This research used social media (i.e. Sina Weibo) to access large volumes of data and provide temporal and geographic granularity. A semantic analysis of microblogs was performed to understand how the public perceives the ecosystem services of wetland parks in Guangzhou. This study explored the public's perceptions and compared these with the ecosystem services as communicated by professional institutions, and probed into the factors that affect these perceptions. The results showed that the top three ecosystem services perceived by both the general public and communicated by institutions are recreation, aesthetics, and refugia / habitat. There is a strong interconnection between the perceptions of recreation and aesthetics services. Flowering plant species and colored-leaf trees are the most important stimuli affecting perceptions of aesthetics services, and birds are key to the perception of refugia / habitat services. These results provide a basis for better aligning management of projects utilizing nature-based solutions, such as wetland parks, with expectations from the public.
