碩士 / 南華大學 / 環境與藝術研究所 / 95 / The main purpose of this research is to present the transitions of the past, present, and future lifestyles and economics of the Siding Settlement in Gongtian Village of Fan-lu Township in Chia-yi County. Using this settlement as the research target, this paper looks back at their history with a macro view and traces back their daily life with a micro view.
Through data collection, face-to-face observation, in-depth interviews and the use of information technology in Geography as the means of studying and analyzing the physical shape of the village, the daily route used by the villagers is drawn, and the living environment of the region is studied. Accompanied with Kelvin Lynch’s five elements in Environmental Image, finally, the images of the village is established and created.
For this study, we interviewed and recorded down the residents’ occupations and the time in which they have been involved with. Then we took the quantitative approach and created a histogram about the Industrial transitions in Siding to demonstrate the rise and decline of the settlement, the correlation between land and the local people and the economic changes there. The result indicates that the market demand is the main drive for the economic changes in Siding; however, during the transition period, Agriculture and Forestry Industries moved in and caused the loss of natural resources. In recent years, the aging of the soil in the tea farmland was the result of the over development of the Tea Industry. Siding is facing with the first Industrial change as the result of the changes in its internal resources.
The main results are described as follows.(1)The cognition of village territory is shaped by the former experience from daily live and the terrain of the natural environment, so it is different from administrative dividing.(2)Most of the living node of the villages is for a short stay, therefore some public interaction space is need to gather the perception of community.(3)The finding of Capparis micracantha DC in the investigated area demonstrates that the phenomenon of northward movement of the plant caused by global warming, which is also suggested by other study that the ecological borderline in Taiwan had been moved north for fifty to seventy kilometers.(4)The intensive cultivation of tea plantation causes the shortage of soil mineral substances, and results in difficulties of re-cultivation of old tea gardens.(5)It is possible to transfer the tea plantation into recreation agri-tourism that we take advantage of location, culture feature and landscape resources of this area.
