Abstract

Altai Mountain is the most concentrated area of mountain forest vegetation, biodiversity and wetland resources in Xinjiang, with unique biology groups, large numbers of rare species, but also the distribution area of the southern boundary of the taiga. This paper studied the Altai typical wetlands by using the methods of sampling the peats, remote sensing technology and landscape ecology. The results indicated that: First, Altai mountain marsh wetlands formed in the late Pleistocene-early Holocene deposits. Second, wetlands of Altai, different from wetlands of Central Asia and of any other districts in China, had unique high altitude and high latitude Siberia characteristics. Third, wetland resources were seriously degraded in the Altai Mountains under the influence of human activities and the climate changes. Research and protection of the wetlands were of great significance. Finally, the region was sensitive to the climate change. The wetland protection in the region was therefore very important. Otherwise, it would have significant and negative impact on the biodiversity, the ecosystem integrity, the landscape ecological service functions and the sustainable economic development of the region.

Key words： river wetland; marsh wetland; lake wetland; Altai Mountain; Xinjiang
