Abstract:Urban problems caused by resource exhaustion have become an urgent issue that affect the urban construction, social development, and economic development in resource-exhausted cities. So far as the strategies adopted in resource-exhausted cities on industrial transformation and urban development are concerned, there tends to lack the combination between the sustainable development of the ecosystem, the exploration for their own cultures, and the satisfaction of their needs for purpose of economic and social development. Landsenses ecology takes realizing the sustainable development of both the ecosystem and the human society as its vision, and it is "human-oriented" while using "sense" as the way and means so as to improve the human well-beings maximally by changing land uses and their material and spatial elements. Its theories and methods are fairly applicable to the transformation and development of resource-exhausted cities. In the present study, progresses made in the research on resource exhausted cities and the existing problems in the research have been sorted out while both the theoretical basis and applicability of landsenses ecology have been analyzed and interpreted. It is found out through research that with the theories of landsenses ecology as the guideline, it is of great significance to the future development of resource exhausted cities to conduct landsense creation. In order to realize the landsense creation on industrial abandoned lands, first of all, it is necessary to sort out the composition of the comprehensive system of industrial abandoned lands in a systematic manner and develop the meliorization model for landsence creation on abandoned industrial lands. It is an innovative application of landsenses ecology to urban land use and material and space reconstruction to get social elements, economic elements, and eco-environmental elements closely integrated into land use, which is to be highly operable. Through the case study conducted in Jingdezhen, many studies have been conducted on how to tap the landsense of the abandoned industrial land system in Jingdezhen by following such fundamental principles for landsense creation as the vein-compliance principle of orientation and bearing, the systematic physical perception, the differences between different cultures, the multiscale rule for spatio-temporal combination, and the progressive creation process under the condition of landsense disorder caused by the traditionally industrial system and provide an authoritative reference for the reconstruction of the abandoned industrial land system in Jingdezhen.
