“生態(tài)文明建設”和“可持續發(fā)展戰略”已成為科技工作者廣泛關(guān)注的新時(shí)代議題。近二十年來(lái)，堅持以人為本、聚焦人地關(guān)系、為可持續發(fā)展提供科技支撐的新興學(xué)科—“可持續性科學(xué)”已日漸發(fā)展成為國際顯學(xué)。景觀(guān)作為區域發(fā)展的內在載體和外在表現，既是當前可持續發(fā)展和生態(tài)文明建設的重要熱點(diǎn)，也是可持續性科學(xué)研究的關(guān)鍵尺度和核心對象。隨著(zhù)遙感、大數據等技術(shù)的不斷發(fā)展，景觀(guān)可持續性科學(xué)的相關(guān)理論、方法和應用研究對于可持續發(fā)展和生態(tài)系統的可持續管理等具有重要的科學(xué)指導意義。

　　以此為背景，中科院東北地理所毛德華副研究員、上海師范大學(xué)馬群副研究員、亞利桑那州立大學(xué)周兵兵博士接受《Landscape Ecology》期刊的邀請，作為Guest Editor以“Sustainability of human–environment systems through the lens of landscape”為題組織專(zhuān)刊，以期推動(dòng)以景觀(guān)為視角的人與環(huán)境耦合系統的可持續性研究。專(zhuān)輯（Volume 35，Issue 11）共收錄論文15篇，其中包括3篇綜述論文，分別從土地系統科學(xué)、草地生態(tài)學(xué)、旱區社會(huì )生態(tài)學(xué)的角度展示了景觀(guān)可持續性科學(xué)的發(fā)展前景；4篇案例研究論文聚焦城市化背景下的景觀(guān)可持續性；5篇論文介紹了景觀(guān)可持續性研究方法的新進(jìn)展；最后3篇論文介紹了推進(jìn)景觀(guān)可持續性科學(xué)發(fā)展的不同視角。毛德華等為此專(zhuān)輯撰寫(xiě)了編者按“Sustainability of human–environment systems through the lens of landscape”。該專(zhuān)輯的順利出版將進(jìn)一步推介可持續性科學(xué)這一新興學(xué)科，也可為人地耦合系統研究領(lǐng)域的相關(guān)學(xué)者提供新的思路和借鑒。

　　《Landscape Ecology》是景觀(guān)生態(tài)學(xué)研究領(lǐng)域的旗幟期刊，重點(diǎn)關(guān)注對空間異質(zhì)性的生態(tài)學(xué)理解。《Landscape Ecology》將生物物理學(xué)和社會(huì )經(jīng)濟科學(xué)的專(zhuān)業(yè)知識結合在一起，探索有關(guān)生態(tài)、保護、管理、設計與規劃、以及人地耦合系統的景觀(guān)可持續性的基礎和應用研究問(wèn)題。
