jismart2024052: Exploration of Methods for Enhancing Biodiversity in Mountainous Protected Area：A case study of Taiping Mountain Natural Park in Qingda

Abstract

This study focuses on integrating and optimizing natural protected areas by addressing the trade-offs between ecology and recreation in natural parks. Utilizing Nature-based Solutions and multi-source data analyzed through the ArcGIS spatial analysis model, a human-forest symbiosis model is developed to enhance biodiversity in Taiping Mountain Forest Park. Integrating of AI-powered cameras for real-time visitor monitoring and augmented reality (AR) navigation systems effectively guides visitors along low-impact trails, reducing human disturbance by 35%. The findings reveal that the dual-layer network structure of ecological and recreational networks, along with the matrix-corridor-patch model, led to a 25 dB(A) reduction in noise pollution and a 40% improvement in habitat connectivity. This research aligns with China’s 2025 National Park System goals by providing a scalable framework for harmonizing biodiversity conservation with smart tourism management.
