Abstract: The health of wetland ecosphere in an estuarine delta is determined by many factors, such as continuity of natural processes, ecosystem connectivity, habitat heterogeneity, and food web diversity. The contradiction between ecological and environmental protection and regional development in the estuarine delta is becoming more and more prominent. A series of man-made and natural processes directly and indirectly resulted in habitat fragmentation of wetlands, which has direct and strong impacts on the ecosphere health and the habitat function of wetlands. In this paper, we provided a perspective on researches on the basic theory of healthy wetland ecosphere, landscape ecological network system, hydrologic network construction, key food webs, and habitat heterogeneity. At the regional and landscape scales, with the linkages between land use and ecosystem integrity as the main line, we clarified the influences of habitat fragmentation on wetland ecological functions, especially the effects of landscape integrity and river connectivity on wetland habitat. At the community and ecosystem scales, emphasis should be given on the relationship between food web and ecosystem stability, especially the supporting role of food web diversity and habitat heterogeneity on the construction of wetland biosphere. Further efforts should focuse on the wetland habitats construction based on landscape integrity, hydrologic connectivity, habitat heterogeneity and food web diversity. These efforts could help to develop and optimize the theory and method of constructing wetland ecosphere and enhancing its ecological function, and promote the sound development of regional ecological environment and resource utilization in estuarine deltas.
