المنطقة البشرية الحرجة (HCA)‎: جوهر أبحاث نظام الإنسان والأرض في الأنثروبوسين

الملخص EN

The human-nature system is the core of geographic science, and the fundamental theoretical research of geographic science is inseparable from the tenet of human environment interrelationship.

Studies have shown that the concepts of the Anthropocene and the Earth Critical Zone have brought humans into the nature system, and that humans and the Earth have entered a common historical stage.

The human-nature relationship in the nearly ten thousand years of human history fall into three levels: human civilization and the global environment, human activities and geographical environment, human behavior and land use, from which the concept of Human Critical Area was born.

Human Critical Area can be classified into four types: built-up areas, agricultural areas, ecological areas, and bare areas.

Human Critical Zone exists at varying scales: global scale, national scale, regional scale, local scale, community scale, family and individual scale.

The main future research contents of Human Critical Zone include human-biogeochemical cycles and energy flow in Human Critical Zone, coupling interaction and dynamical mechanism of Human Critical Zone; Human Critical Zone geosimulator, and regulatory decision-making in Human Critical Zone.

In the context of global change and globalization (deglobalization), innovating Human Critical Zone’s theoretical system, methodological models, empirical research and practical application, and putting forward the theory of human-nature areal system with Chinese characteristics-Human Critical Zone, provide a geographic science innovation-guided Chinese plan for achieving Global Sustainability.
