Kurzfassung:
Many measures have been applied to quarry slopes for ecological restoration; however, the performance of these measures has not been clearly evaluated. Thus, research evaluating the effects of the ecological restoration of quarry slopes in Caidian District was carried out to quantify the performance of different ecological restoration methods, to evaluate the effect of ecological restoration projects and to learn the applicability of different restoration technologies in Caidian District. The research can provide a reference for scientific decision-making in the follow-up management of ecological environments in Caidian District. First, the ecological restoration process of quarries in Caidian District was described in detail by visiting the relevant design and construction units. Through observational analysis from the aspects of applicable slope gradient, slope flatness requirements, project cost, the vegetation coverage conditions, the species diversity conditions and construction difficulty, the advantages and disadvantages, as well as the applicability of different ecological restoration technologies were preliminarily clarified. Then, the comprehensive evaluation index system of the ecological restoration effects was established by using the fuzzy AHP method. The ecological restoration effects of each sample plot were evaluated quantitatively based on the data of the evaluation indexes obtained by the field investigation and sampling analysis. Finally, according to the evaluation results, the existing problems in the follow-up management of the ecological restoration of quarry slopes in Caidian District were analyzed, and corresponding countermeasures and suggestions were proposed. The results showed that the quantitative evaluation results obtained by the comprehensive evaluation system of ecological restoration were consistent with the observational analysis results, and the validity of the evaluation system was proven.
