| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北大學 === 都市計劃研究所 === 100 === From viewpoint of ecological energetics, energy flow is a specific characteristic of urban spatial development . This concept of energetics study is different from the traditional studies concentrated on human and economic dimensions of urban development. In recent years, some emerging studies analyze the dynamic relationship between urban development and environmental change based on energy flows in urban system. For example, the study of Huang et al. (2003) on Taipei’s energetic hierarchy Huang(1997)analyzed the spatial distributions of energy use in Taipei basin and investigated the characteristics of spatial organization of energetic hierarchy. Global urbanization is sharpening the impacts of human development on ecological system. Spatial and temporal patterns of landscape responded to urbanization causes the changes of ecosystem services landscape pattern in urban ecosystem, due to the different types of landscape provide a different functions and services.
However, fewer studies have focused on the relationships between spatial distribution of urban energetic hierarchy and urban landscape patterns. Therefore, this study choose Taipei Metropolitan as the study area and integrate the researches of energetic hierarchy and landscape spatial pattern. The relationships between energetic hierarchy and landscape spatial pattern are calculated by using the emergy index and landscape metrics. Our analytical results show more detailed information about the landscape pattern and energy flows of the spatial dynamic sand are contributive to the understanding on the impact of urbanization on urban environment.
Key words: Energetic hierarchy, Landscape pattern, Emergy analysis, Landscape metrics, Urban spatial structure.
