城市荒野:夹缝中的自然与机遇
Urban Wilderness: Nature and the Potential in the Urban Cracks
作者:袁嘉 YUAN Jia
摘要
城市荒野是普遍存在于城市系统夹缝中的自然,可提供野生动植物生境及自然游憩地等,蕴藏着提升城市生态韧性的重要机遇。一方面,前所未有的城市化进程和公众的负面假设造成了城市荒野的不断缩减;另一方面,自然过程重新主导因工业衰退和城市收缩而产生的闲置土地,再野化理念与技术也逐步发展,突显了重建和激活城市荒野景观的巨大潜力。随着生态文明建设、“山-水-林-田-湖-草”生命共同体统筹协调,以及“基于自然的解决方案”在中国的不断推进,当前正是我们深入认知城市荒野、辨识其内涵与价值、构建认同并开展保护与修复实践的最佳时机。

Abstract
Urban wilderness is the remnant nature existing within the cracks of urban context, which can provide habitats for wildlife and natural recreation areas, with significance in optimizing urban ecological resilience. On the one hand, the unprecedented urbanization processes and the public’s negative hypotheses on the concept have caused continuous reduction of urban wilderness; on the other hand, opportunities are seen in reconstructing and activating urban wilderness when natural processes return to dominate the idle lands resulting from industrial recession and urban shrinkage, and the rewilding concept and techniques develop gradually. With ecological civilization construction, the initiative of a systematic management of the mountains, waters, forests, farmlands, lakes, and grasslands, and the advance of adopting Nature-Based Solutions in China, it is the best time to acknowledge urban wilderness in depth, identify its connotations and values, construct identity recognition, and carry out practices of conservation and restoration.

摘要
城市的扩张、转型和收缩等进程为城市荒野景观的产生与发展创造了可能。在物理范畴上,城市荒野景观指生态过程基本维持以自然为主导,且具备类似自然荒野野性表征与功能类型的城市空间。隐含在城市中的荒野景观片段,其存在与持续得益于有限程度的人工管理和对自然做功的最小干预。由于自然过程与社会过程的共同作用与相互抗衡,城市荒野景观往往呈现出不同的“荒野度”。这类景观具有独特和不可替代的生态、人文、审美、经济及健康价值,引发了多学科关注和广泛认同。本文对城市荒野景观概念进行界定,梳理其内涵的构建与衍生历程,并在价值认同研究的基础上分析城市荒野景观的复合效益。内涵辨析与价值审视能够为城市荒野景观的实证研究打下重要的认知基础,为城市居民、规划设计者和管理者发现、欣赏、体验与可持续管理城市自然资源和生态网络提供科学支持,对中国城市的生态化发展具有现实的指导意义。

Abstract
The process of urban sprawl, restructure, and shrinkage provides the possibility for the formation and evolution of urban wildscapes. Physically, urban wildscapes refer to the urban spaces where the ecology is basically dominated by natural processes and similar to the natural wilderness in appearance and functions. The existence and persistence of wilderness fragments in cities often result from the reduction of human management and with minimal intervention on the nature. Due to the different interactions and confrontations between natural processes and social processes, the wildness of urban wildscapes varies. The unique and irreplaceable values of urban widlscapes in ecology, culture, aesthetics, economy, and well-being have gained multi-disciplinary attention and been widely recognized. This paper defines the concept of urban wildscapes, reviews the conceptual development of its connotation, and analyzes the multiple benefits of urban wildscapes on the basis of value recognition research. It hopes to provide a value recognition framework for empirical studies, helping urban residents, planning designers, and managers identify, appreciate, experience, and sustainably manage natural resources and urban ecological network, and providing scientific guidelines for ecological urban development.

摘要
城市环境中残存着一些以自然过程为主导的荒野生境片段,在生物多样性保育、维持城市生态过程、连接人与自然等方面具有不可替代的作用。植被再野化提供了重建城市荒野生境的重要途径,旨在恢复严重退化的城市植物群落的物种组成、结构及功能,使其逐渐野化并达到自然过程基本不受人类干扰的程度。本文以野花草甸景观为例,提出了主动利用景观生态流、拟自然设计与最小限度干预进行城市植被再野化的技术框架;从自我设计、微地形设计、拟自然群落设计、植物–动物关键种协同共生设计,以及自然柔性材料运用等5个方面详细探讨并提供科学参考。同时,以重庆市梁平区双桂湖湖岸公园绿地为例,阐述了在“自然–人工”斑块复杂镶嵌的城市景观中进行植被再野化与荒野生境重建的实践原则与应用范式。

Abstract
Fragments of wilderness dominated by natural succession exist in urban environments, and play a critical role in protecting biodiversity, supporting urban ecological processes, and connecting human beings with nature. Urban vegetation rewilding is a key approach to restricting urban wilderness by restoring the species composition, community structure and functions, eventually towards a self-maintained vegetation community. This paper, taking wildflower meadows as a reference, establishes a technical framework of urban vegetation rewilding by leveraging ecological flows and adopting quasi-nature design with minimum interventions. The framework covers 5 aspects, namely self-design, micro-topographic design, quasi-nature design, collaborative symbiosis design between plant community and keystone animal species, and design with natural materials. Studying the green space along the northwest lakeside of the Shuangguihu National Wetland Park in Liangping District, Chongqing, this paper provides a scientific guidance and technical paradigm for vegetation rewilding and urban wilderness restoration in the complex context of natural–artificial urban landscapes.

城市闲置地块的生态自我修复特征研究——以北京林业大学校园为例
The Characteristics of Ecological Self-restoration in Urban Idle Lands: A Case Study of Beijing Forestry University
作者:尹豪,罗婧,宁雅萱,刘芳妮 YIN Hao, LUO Jing, NING Yaxuan, LIU Fangni
摘要
疏于人工管理的城市闲置用地会自发生长出一些植物,混杂无序的生长状态形成荒野自然景观。在荒野状态下自然生长的植被特征最能反映生态自我修复发生的特征。本文对北京林业大学校园一处闲置用地内的自生植被进行了研究,调查分析其生成变化特征、植物种类、优势植物群落、生长条件及周边同种成株的情况,探讨了城市闲置地生态自我修复的初始特征。结果表明,闲置场地封闭管理后,自生植物很快出现,3年后自生植被覆盖了场地近1/3的面积;自生植物绝大多数为乡土植物,草本植物种类多于木本植物;在优势植物群落的构成中木本植物群落和草本植物群落数量相差不大;场地日照充分的情况下,土壤条件的差异对草本植物和木本植物的分布有着明显的影响。研究认为,即便是在生长条件极差的城市环境中,只要停止或降低人为干扰,且具备植物生长的最基本条件(光照、土壤、种源),生态自我修复的现象就能迅速发生;在生态自我修复的初始阶段,乡土植物种类具有明显优势;迅速出现的以乡土乔木为建群种的木本植物群落,提示了城市环境中乡土木本植物的自生现象值得关注和深入研究。

Abstract
Natural plants would see a free growth in an idle land after an absence of management, leading to spontaneous biological processes that form the wildscape. Such vegetation demonstrates the characteristics of the ecological self-restoration. This paper studies the spontaneous species found on a site in Beijing Forestry University, inventories and analyzes the species, site conditions, possible maternal plants of them, and discusses the changes and characteristics of the community in its early establishment. The results show that several spontaneous plants sprout early, and cover nearly 1/3 of the site 3 years later. Most of spontaneous plant species are native, more of which are herbaceous, while little difference is found between the number of woody communities and that of herbaceous communities. Their distribution is obviously affected by soil conditions when the light is sufficient. This paper concludes that once the human disturbances are stopped or reduced, ecological self-restoration can occur rapidly with essential conditions for growth (light, soils, and seed sources), even poor as urban environment. At the early stage of ecological self-restoration, native plant species dominate obviously. It is worthy of attention to and further study on the spontaneous native woody communities as they emerge rapidly.

育野:技术多样性与机器中的“野”
Cultivated Wildness: Technodiversity and Wildness in Machines
作者:张子豪,耿百利 ZHANG Zihao, Bradley CANTRELL
摘要
本文基于景观设计和人工智能的交叉领域探究了“育野”这一理念。当代景观实践应克服针对“荒野”概念可能存在的狭义理解,借鉴环境人文学、科学技术论、生态科学及景观设计学理念,探索用以培育新型野地的景观策略。通过剖析环境工程、计算机科学及景观设计案例,本文构想了利用智能机器营造“野地”的理论框架。该框架将机器视为具有能动性、能够参与合作生产的智能体,而非用来扩大人类对环境影响力的“数字基础设施”。近年来控制论技术发展迅速,传感网络、人工智能和网络物理系统等理念亦可为构建“育野”框架提供支持。该框架的核心是与“生物多样性”同等重要的“技术多样性”,以性能优化、追求效率为目标的技术发展单一愿景拘囿了人们的思想,剥夺了人们与环境相联系的其他可能。因此,育野的关键也在于认识机器的“野”。

Abstract
This paper investigates the idea of cultivated wildness at the intersection of landscape design and artificial intelligence. The paper posits that contemporary landscape practices should overcome the potentially single understanding on wilderness, and instead explore landscape strategies to cultivate new forms of wild places via ideas and concerns in contemporary Environmental Humanities, Science and Technology Studies, Ecological Sciences, and Landscape Architecture. Drawing cases in environmental engineering, computer science, and landscape architecture research, this paper explores a framework to construct wild places with intelligent machines. In this framework, machines are not understood a layer of “digital infrastructure” that is used to extent localized human intelligence and agency. Rather machines are conceptualized as active agents who can participate in the intelligence of co-production. Recent developments in cybernetic technologies such as sensing networks, artificial intelligence, and cyberphysical systems can also contribute to establishing the framework. At the heart of this framework is “technodiversity,” in parallel with biodiversity, since a singular vision on technological development driven by optimization and efficiency reinforces a monocultural approach that eliminates other possible relationships to construct with the environment. Thus, cultivated wildness is also about recognizing “wildness” in machines.

城市野境:比“城市荒野”更准确的措辞
Urban Wildness—A More Correct Term Than “Urban Wilderness”
作者:万斯•G•马丁,梅拉尼•希尔 Vance G. MARTIN, Melanie HILL
摘要
“荒野”概念具有多样化的特征与多重价值,蕴含着生物、社会-经济及象征意义。为了厘清这一概念,1992年,该术语被列入了世界自然保护联盟的“自然保护地分类”中。然而,近年来“城市荒野”一词开始流行,使那些重视自然荒野区对地球未来健康与福祉的作用并致力于保护这些区域的人士感到担忧。这种用法还很可能令(现在占全球人口大多数的)城市居民对“真正的”荒野是什么感到困惑。狭义上,城市不可能拥有严格意义上的“荒野”;但荒野的某些元素可以且应该出现在城市内及城市周边地区,从而提高人类健康和生活品质。基于此,“城市野境”或为更恰当的措辞。因此,本文主张以“城市野境”替代“城市荒野”一词,阐述替代原因的同时列举了城市野境的特征和效益;剖析了“城市野境”的成功案例;阐明野生动物(尤其是捕食者)在城市中的角色和面临的挑战;最后,结合案例说明了将城市居民与野性价值和效益联系起来的公众参与和公众教育方法论。

Abstract
The concept of wilderness (荒野) has multiple characteristics and values relating to three principal areas: biological, socio-economic, and iconic. To provide clarity of concept, the term was included in the IUCN’s list of Protected Area Categories in 1992. More recently, a current and fashionable expression “urban wilderness” has emerged. For those who believe in the critical importance of natural wilderness areas to the future health and well-being of our planet, and who work to protect these areas, the term “urban wilderness” causes much consternation. It is very possible that such usages will create confusion in the mind of urban dwellers—now the majority of the global population—as to what “real” wilderness is. By definition, cities cannot be “wilderness” technically. However, elements of wilderness can and should be present in and around urban areas to enhance human health and quality of life. Rather than calling this urban wilderness, however, the term should be “urban wildness (野境).” This paper presents a rationale for using “urban wildness” to replace “urban wilderness,” citing some of the characteristics and benefits of urban wildness; provides case studies of urban areas that are working successfully with the concept; elucidates the role and challenges of wild animals (especially predators) in urban areas; and finally, gives an example of an engagement and educational methodology connecting urban dwellers to wild values and benefits.

与荒野共生:城市绿地的发展前景
Working With Wilderness: A Promising Direction for Urban Green Spaces
作者:英戈•科瓦里克 Ingo KOWARIK
摘要
“荒野”(wilderness)是一个根植于人类社会的文化概念。对于当代景观设计师或是景观设计先驱来说,荒野一直以来的重要性既在于其与人工景观元素的鲜明对比可以为自然主义植物设计提供灵感,也在于如今为协调城市、城市居民与自然做出的贡献。人们习惯上将城市和荒野视为对立面,因此有必要采取新方法以便更好地应对与城市语境下荒野相关的机遇和挑战。从生态学的角度来看,城市荒野是未受明显人类干扰的、具有生态系统过程高度自我调节特性的区域。由此可以区分出两种主要的荒野类型:以许多城市中的自然遗迹为代表的“古老荒野”,以及工业城市中诞生的“新生荒野”,在设计和管理绿地时需要对不同类型的场地区别对待。古老荒野一直以来都是保护和修复的对象,以及自然主义种植的灵感来源;相对地,新生荒野长期被视为疏于管理和社会经济衰退的产物。然而,自20世纪80年代起,德国的早期先锋项目开始将城市新生荒野融入绿色基础设施,产生了将荒野与设计相结合的、前所未有的绿色空间,既可以吸引游客,又可以保护生物多样性、支持许多生态系统服务。本文旨在说明将荒野元素、过程与城市绿色基础设施相融合——以便城市适时与自然恢复联系——的机遇和挑战。

Abstract
Wilderness is a cultural construct that is deeply rooted in many societies. For landscape architects and their predecessors, wilderness has long been important as a contrast to artificial garden elements, as an inspiration for naturalistic plant designs, or today as a timely contribution to reconciling cities and their inhabitants with the natural world. Since cities and wilderness have traditionally been seen as opposites, new approaches are necessary to better address the opportunities and challenges associated with wilderness in urban regions. From an ecological perspective, urban wilderness can be defined as an area characterized by a high degree of self-regulation in ecosystem processes where direct human impact is negligible. This allows two main types of wilderness to be distinguished: “ancient wilderness” represented by natural remnants in many cities, and “novel wilderness,” which arises in artificial urban-industrial sites. The two types require different approaches in designing and managing green spaces. Ancient wilderness is a traditional object of conservation and restoration, and offers inspiration for naturalistic plantings. In contrast, the emergence of novel wilderness has long been associated with neglect and socio-economic decline. Since the 1980s, however, early pioneer projects in Germany have started to integrate novel urban wilderness into the green infrastructure. The results are unprecedented green spaces that combine novel wilderness with design interventions. These places are attractive to visitors, contribute to biodiversity conservation, and support many ecosystem services. This article aims to illustrate the opportunities and challenges of integrating wilderness components and processes into the urban green infrastructure—a timely way to reconnect cities with nature.

从瓦砾堆到自然保护区——加拿大多伦多汤米-汤普森公园
From Rubble to Refuge—Tommy Thompson Park in Toronto, Canada
作者:沃尔特•科姆,彼得•德尔•特雷迪奇 Walter KEHM, Peter DEL TREDICI
摘要
加拿大多伦多市的汤米-汤普森公园建于一处大型垃圾填埋场上,由安大略湖湖滨向内延伸5km。自20世纪50年代到70年代末,项目利用建筑瓦砾和港口淤泥实施填湖工程,而后因经济形势变化被迫停工。项目搁置后,来自世界各地的众多植物在这里扎根,数百种候鸟在此筑巢觅食,原本的垃圾填埋场自发演变成为了“自然保护区”。20世纪90年代,多伦多市政府通过精心规划设计与施工,将其改造为一座公园——汤米-汤普森公园。通过提高公众可达性、野生动植物和栖息地的多样性,以及生态功能性,汤米-汤普森公园成为了探究自然演变与设计干预之间动态交互的理想案例,我们可以从中探知这两个看似矛盾的过程如何随时间推移而和谐相融。

Abstract
Tommy Thompson Park in the city of Toronto, Canada was originally a massive landfilling project that extended 5 kilometers out into Lake Ontario. It was constructed from construction rubble and harbor dredge from the 1950s through the late 1970s, when the project was halted due to changing economic conditions. Left to its own devices, the landfill spontaneously evolved into a “nature preserve” when innumerable plants from around the world established themselves and hundreds of migrating bird species descended on the site for nesting and feeding. In the 1990s, the city of Toronto took control of the site and transformed it into a park—Tommy Thompson Park—after a carefully planned design and construction process. The design interventions enhanced public accessibility, wildlife and habitat diversity, and ecological functionality. Tommy Thompson Park is an ideal case study for examining the dynamic interaction between spontaneity and design and for how, over time, these seemingly contradictory processes can come together harmoniously.

生态种植势在必行:创建功能性的系统,而非程式化的生态
Ecological Planting Imperative: Functional Systems, Not Stylized Ecologies
作者:托马斯•雷纳 Thomas RAINER
摘要
通过创建由植物构成的人工生态系统,景观设计项目得以缓解气候变化的严峻影响。尽管人们普遍认识到了生态学对于景观塑造的重要性,但景观设计专业人士却普遍缺乏构建稳定植物系统的知识和实践技能,因此迫切需要探索种植设计的新方法和新工具。本文概述了城市环境下高生物多样性植物系统的设计原理和方法,着重介绍了可提升物种丰富度、功能多样性和空间复杂性,有助于构造更具韧性的植物景观的设计方法。种植设计中选择那些对胁迫、干扰和竞争表现出相似适应性状的物种,以及构建由多样化植物形态构成的多层次组合,将有助于建构具有兼容性、长期稳定的植物组合。为平衡多种植物组合带来的视觉复杂性,本文结合美国华盛顿特区Phyto设计工作室的案例与研究和实践经验,探讨了提升景观效果的种植设计策略。这些方法总结于作者探讨如何创建人工植物群落的著作——《后荒野世界的种植设计》一书。

Abstract
The ability of landscape architectural projects to mitigate the worst effects of climate change will depend upon designed ecological systems. These systems will be built with plants. Despite the recognition of ecology as an essential driver of landscapes, the professionals of landscape architecture too often lack the knowledge and practical skills to create robust vegetative systems. New approaches and tools are required. This article outlines principles and methods for designing biodiverse plant systems for urban sites. Planting methods that increase species richness, functional diversity, and spatial complexity are emphasized as a way of developing more resilient plantings. Selecting species with similar evolutionary adaptions to stress, disturbance, and competition—as well as creating multi-layered compositions of diverse plant morphologies—allows designers to create compatible, long-lived plant mixes. To balance the increased visual complexity of diverse plant mixes, the article explores design techniques to make plantings more appealing to the public. The strategies explored here are based on the projects, experience, and research of Phyto Studio, a Washington, D.C. based studio. The methods build on work described in the author’s book, Planting in a Post-Wild World, an exploration of how to create designed plant communities.

Abstract
One of the core values of urban wilderness construction is to restore the structures and functions of biological communities in fragmented urban habitats, and enable the stability and ecological succession of native communities with low human intervention. The paper discusses the design principles and technical methodologies in active urban rewilding by the example of Shanghai Urban Biodiversity Education Base project. Aiming to restore urban biodiversity and enrich the technical and theoretical research of urban wilderness construction and Nature-based Solutions, this project conducted habitat division, native species introduction, natural community construction, ecological benefit assessment, etc. In a year and a half, 260 native plant species, 255 insect species, 7 amphibian and reptile species, 71 bird species, and 6 mammal species were recorded within the 1.7 hm2 project site, showing higher biodiversity and density of animal populations than unrestored consructed forests surrounding. Along with the spontaneous progressive succession of the plant communities, the project has achieved good results. The technical approaches proposed in the project can be broadly applied in design and construction of country parks, wildlife habitats, ecological corridors / networks, and environmental education bases.

Abstract
City as Nature is an ecological art and media studio based primarily in Kitakagaya, a former shipbuilding district on the outskirts of Osaka, Japan. Working with local and international practitioners, and public and private organizations across multiple disciplines and sectors, they produce ecological art projects that re-connect people, process, and place with the ecosystems in which we dwell. Two narrative project studies in Kitakagaya are presented here: 1) The Branch Osaka, a physical ecological space built inside a typical wood-and-earth row house in an 80-year-old marketplace—rebuilt by City as Nature, using locally recycled materials, it now serves as a residence and ecological art space, with a natural garden and donation-based programming; 2) City as Nature Festival, an ecological neighborhood “happening,” taking place in multiple local public and privately-owned spaces. The festival explores urban relationships with the nature through art-driven dialogs between practitioners, the general public, and the urban space itself. From these projects, City as Nature hopes to explore approaches to cultivating relationships—individual, meaningful relationships between designers, executives, civic leaders, citizens, and the communities of ecosystems in and around our cities. Through an ongoing, truthful dialog with the environment, people might just discover the possible city, an equitable place for all beings.

摘要
在人类的印象中,荒野植物是随遇而安、坚韧又脆弱的——人类亦如是。城市环境中充斥着的植物,诗意地扎根于工业基础设施遗迹之上——无论是顺着路沿和铁丝网、于路面裂缝之间,还是在空地、碎石堆和公路分隔带中。
未来绿色工作室通过一系列城市漫走、演讲、公民科学的活动对城市自生植物进行调查,并将成果集结为《城市自生植物:纽约城野草》一书,希望借此促使人们与周边的街道、墙壁、土地和树池等环境互动。这项工作也不断为工作室的众多景观设计项目提供种植理念支撑,力图展现出城市荒野强健且富有魅力的一面。在进行种植设计时,工作室会从项目所在地的植物群落(如橡树林和灌木丛)中选择能够耐受目标生境环境的物种;项目地的植物和生态总能为设计师提供源源不断的灵感。野生植物不再被视为破坏城市环境的幽灵;反之,它们是保证人类与其他地球居民健康和福祉的无形资产,展现了城市促进未来生态演进发展的能力。

Abstract
Wild places remind us of the adaptability, resilience, and fragility of plants and humans alike. The urban environment is awash in plant life, often taking root in remnants of industrial infrastructure in poetic ways—along roadsides and chain-link fences, between cracks of pavement, and within vacant lots, rubble dumps, and highway medians.
Future Green Studio’s investigations into spontaneous urban plants have aspired to engage people with their neighborhood environments—streets, walls, lots, and tree pits—through a series of walks, talks, citizen science participation, and the publication of a book, SUP: Weeds in NYC. This work continues to feed planting concepts behind many of the studio’s designed landscapes, which seek to capture the rugged vision of urban wilderness. Species for the studio’s projects are selected for their ability to tolerate the proposed habitats created on sites and are often drawn from local plant communities, such as oak barrens and shrublands; the plants and ecologies of project sites are a frequent source of inspiration. The studio does not see uncultivated plant growth as the specter of disinvestment, but as an asset to the performance, health, and well-being of its inhabitants, human or otherwise, which demonstrates the ability of the city to support the evolving ecologies of the future.
