Abstract

It is important to carry out planning evaluation and regulation of ecological security (PERES) after implementing urban planning, which is the most urgent demand in China’s national-level urban planning according to China’s national strategic target for intensive urbanization. In this chapter, the importance of research on PERES is discussed after related literature review, and a method for PERES is designed in order to integrate ecological planning and sustainability into urban planning process in China. The suggested PERES system should include (1) determining the key bottlenecks in the implementation of urban planning, (2) identifying the basic elements of the evaluation and regulation of urban ecological security, (3) developing criteria to evaluate ecological security, (4) ecological safety monitoring, and (5) building regulations and a system of spatial regulations.
