Abstract:
Based on the data of the comprehensive scientific surveys of and, overall planning for the 1458 nature reserves in China and their analysis, status of
in-situ conservation of nature relics in nature reserves were assessed. Results show that a total of 220 nature reserves have set the nature relics found therein as major objects of protection. The protected nature relics encompass 35 sub-groups in 12 groups of 3 categories, accounting for 76% of the total sub-groups, 92% of the total groups and 100% of the total categories. An
in-situ nature relics protection network system has primarily come into shape. Meanwhile, problems in
in-situ protection of nature relics in the nature reserves, like low in development, imbalance in spatial distribution, irrational in type structure and inadequate in knowledge, are addressed and corresponding countermeasures are put forward.
