Abstract

Traditional analytical methods are inadequate for dealing with the complexity and dynamics of plant landscapes in ecological scenic spots in Zhejiang Province.It is difficult to quantify fuzzy information and dynamic weight distribution effectively in multi-criteria decision-making.To address the above issues, this study proposes a plant landscape feature analysis method that combines the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method (FCE).The research results showed that the AHP-FCE model significantly improved the interpretation rate of ecological indicators and the accuracy of aesthetic evaluations compared with traditional methods.It also demonstrated outstanding performance in handling fuzzy information and maintaining data consistency (both over 96.5%).The weight analysis of the criterion layer showed that ecological adaptability (0.400) was the most critical dimension influencing landscape features.This method provides a scientific analytical tool for plant landscape planning and scenic area management.Its research results clearly indicate that, in managing ecological scenic areas, the stability and health of the ecosystem should be prioritized.Then, the aesthetic quality of the landscape can be optimized.This provides a clear decision-making path for achieving the coordinated improvement of ecological sustainability and tourism attractiveness of the scenic area.
