The Application of Landscape Indices in Landscape Ecology

Landscape ecology is essentially the ecological approach of landscape research, the theoretical background that facilitates landscape use and planning in practice (Mander & Jongman, 2000; Richling et al., 1994; Wu & Hobbs, 2007; Szilassi et al., 2010). It is a study of spatial variation in landscapes, research of the biophysical and societal causes and consequences of landscape heterogeneity. In order to plan the proper landscape use according to the constantly changing social requirements, we should know the actual condition of the landscape, its function, its spatial structure and history (Tress et al., 2003).
