Abstract :
Wetlands in urban are important part of environment. The state of wetland is tightly related with the security and sustainable development of ecosystem and society. This study is about wetland investigation in park of Jinan city which having been famous for its springs based on high spatial resolution remote sensing QUICKBIRD data. Through study, we conclude that :(1) the vegetation structure is reasonable; (2) water quality is low in part of park wetlands, and eutrophied plants are obvious in some water area; (3) the water areas have decreased contrast to history recorded document; (4) It is a big challenge for the government to protect and restore the wetland resource in urban parks.
