景觀生態(tài)學是一門成熟的、快速發(fā)展的跨學科科學的旗艦期刊，明確關注空間異質性的生態(tài)理解。景觀生態(tài)學匯集了生物物理和社會經濟科學的專業(yè)知識，探索有關生態(tài)、保護、管理、設計/規(guī)劃和景觀作為耦合的人類環(huán)境系統的可持續(xù)性的基本和應用研究問題。景觀生態(tài)學研究的特點是空間顯式方法，即直接分析景觀要素的空間屬性和布局，并將其與生態(tài)過程聯系起來。景觀生態(tài)學是生態(tài)學、自然保護、生態(tài)系統管理、景觀規(guī)劃與設計等領域的研究人員和實踐者的寶貴資源，目前是這些領域的領先期刊之一。

Landscape Ecology is the flagship journal of a well-established and rapidly developing interdisciplinary science that focuses explicitly on the ecological understanding of spatial heterogeneity. Landscape Ecology draws together expertise from both biophysical and socioeconomic sciences to explore basic and applied research questions concerning the ecology, conservation, management, design/planning, and sustainability of landscapes as coupled human-environment systems. Landscape ecology studies are characterized by spatially explicit methods in which spatial attributes and arrangements of landscape elements are directly analyzed and related to ecological processes. A valuable resource for both researchers and practitioners in ecology, conservation, ecosystem management, and landscape planning and design, Landscape Ecology is currently one of the leading journals across these fields.
