In order to realize the effective protection of giant panda species, China has been promoting the system of
establishing giant panda national parks. Reserves are the core areas of these giant panda national parks, and the health and
stability of their forest ecosystems are the top priorities for the conservation of panda species, for which the value of forest
ecological services directly reflects the conservation effectiveness of the giant panda national parks. Since the 1990s, scholars at
home and abroad have carried out many researches on the forest ecological service functions, while researches on the“panda
reserve”as a specific subject are still insufficient, especially the selection of measurement system and method for evaluating
the specific forest ecosystem service functions in giant panda reserve needing to be further discussed. Based on this, this paper
summarizes the development process of framework for the evaluation of ecological service value and the evaluation indicators of
forest ecological service functions in the giant panda reserve, introduces the application of evaluation method in this field, and
finally discusses the shortcomings in the current research and the possible improvement direction in the future. |
