碩士 / 東海大學 / 景觀學系 / 100 / It has been 57 years since Tunghai University was established in 1955. The campus space planning has been changed along with the governing policy of the university in different periods of time. Some of the existing Acacia confusa woods and pastures were replaced with buildings and facilities, and vegetation patches shrinked or even fragmented. The phenomena, as a matter of course, may cause negative impacts to biotope quality of the campus. However, several problems have not been thoroughly investigated yet. For example, how much is the level of the impact? How does the development of the built environment affect the landscape ecological structure, and further disturb the biotope quality of the campus? What are the relationships between physical environment, landscape ecological structure, and the biotope quality of the campus? Accordingly, the main purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between physical environment, landscape ecological structure and the biotope quality of Tunghai University campus from the perspective of landscape ecological theories. More specifically, the purpose of the study was as following: 1. To inventory the physically environmental development and changes of Tunghai University campus in different periods; 2. To explore the structural states and changes of landscape ecology in different periods; 3. To analyze the biotope quality of the campus in every periods; 4. To explore the relationship between physical environment, landscape ecological structure and the biotope quality of the campus. The campus was divided into seven homogeneous areas labeled from A to G, and the data were analyzed based on five periods of time labeled as: Foundation and Expansion Period (1952~1978), Facility Expanding Period (1979~1983), Radical-Changing Period (1984~1993), Saturation of the West Side Period (1994~2004), and Second Campus Expansion Period” (2005~2012). The results show that the distributed area of buildings and public facilities increased in every period of Tunghai University campus, and vegetations decreased in every period. Compared to Period 1, the distributed area of buildings in Period 5 increased by 7.72%, the distributed area of public facilities increased by 4.93%, the distributed area of vegetations decreased by 23%. The best state of the biotope quality of the campus is in the second period, Facility Expanding Period (1979~1983). It was also found that there was a relationship between physical environment, landscape ecological structure, and the biotope quality of the campus. The amount of buildings and public facilities and woods distribution area showed critical impact on the biotope area factor. The mode of building configuration might cause the changes in ecological structure and biotope area factor of the campus, and even reduced the number of bird species. The size of large vegetation structure and the configuration of landscape ecological structural might also affect the quality of the habitat. Based on the findings of the study, several strategies were proposed to enhance the biotope quality of Tunghai University campus. They include changing the surface type, retain the large-size vegetation patches and habitat types, or even rebuilt large-size vegetation patches and biological paths.
