Visual approach for a new forest landscape management system

本研究的目的是从区域森林景观的角度来阐明森林景观的特征，并探讨这种观点在森林景观管理中的适用性。探讨了将这一思想应用于森林景观管理的措施，并将该理论应用于日本的实际森林中。在吉野(奈良)、日田(大雄)、莫罗须贺(宫崎县)、桑托姆(崎玉县)和琵琶湖(志贺县)实施了五个多样化的案例研究。从区域角度对各森林景观进行了评价，探讨了森林景观管理的可能性，并尝试建立森林景观数据库，对各区域森林景观进行相对评价。

The purpose of this study is to clarify characteristics of forest landscape from a viewpoint of regional forest landscape, and to discuss how that viewpoint is available for forest landscape management.First, we proposed the necessity of a standpoint to grasp forest landscape as regional landscape or places for human life. The measures to use this idea for forest landscape management was considered.Then, we applied this theory to actual forest in Japan. Five diversified case studies were implemented in Yoshino(Nara), Hita(Ohita), Morotsuka(Miyazaki), Santome(Saitama), and Biwa-Lake(Shiga). Each forest landscape was evaluated from a viewpoint of region, and possibilities of the way to manage the landscape were discussed.Furthermore, we tried to build the forest-landscape-database in order to evaluate these regional forest landscapes relatively.
