| The increasingly serious of global warming, sea level rise and coastal disasters has become a problem which heated debated and researched by contemporary international society, government and academia institution. Estuary cities in delta area are regions with the great challenge from climate change. On the one hand, locating in the boundary of river, sea and land makes it vunarable for coastal disasters. On the other hand, the highly concentration of economic, social and environment resources make it easty to suffer great destruction by coastal disasters. Therefore, how to improve the ability of estuary cities to adapt to coastal disaster avoiding unnessary destruction is one of the most important things which should be taken into account in the development of estuaty cities.Firstly, the paper analysis the related fields background and core concept nouns such as estuary cities, coastal disaster and adaptability. According to this, the concept of adaptative landscape design response to coastal disaster in estuary cities was proposed. Besides, according to the integrated environmental characterastic of estuary cities, disaster vunarable factors and risks by sea level rise are developed. Secondly, the paper combines the perspective of landscape design and disaster adaptation theory, study the relationship between landscape theories such as eco-design, disaster prevention design and landscape urbanism. In this context, the paper builds the evaluation modle of adaptative landscape design response to coastal disaster in estuary cities. By selecting adaptive strategies from the ten estuary cities in the world used as the standard index system. According to the results of questionnaire about evaluation, the paper studied the relationship between adaptation strategies and landscape design by using AHP analysis method. In addition, basing on the results of evaluation, the paper developed four taype adaptative landscape design strategies with different perspective such as land using mode, defense engineering infrastructure, natural process and advanced technology of landscape engineering which are fully explained and discussed by providing specific landscape cases. Finally, in order to improve the effectiveness of adaptative strategies, the paper analysis the relevant factors which possible influence the performance of the strategies. And then making some implemention masures and policies such as regulations and law, dynamic of design plan, public participation mechanism to make sure that improve the development of adaptative landscape design strategies for estuary cities. |
