Watershed ecology—New discipline, new idea and new approach

Abstract

Abstract: Based on the deliberation of the definition, origination and relative knowledge of watershed ecology, the scientific significance and major research contents of watershed ecology as a discipline were discussed in this paper.It is suggested that the study and application of watershed ecology should be an effective approach to the sustainable development of society and economics in certain watersheds, and that it is necessary to develop a systematic research on watershed ecology as soon as possible.

Key words: Watershed, Ecosystem, Watershed ecology
