Abstract:Uncontrolled rainstorm runoff hindered urban residents' normal life. As a typical ecological infrastructure for rainstorm treatment, rain garden is an important means of urban water management. To improve the rain garden's ecosystem services capacity mainly based on runoff control, the research team built a rain garden demonstration plot (hereinafter referred to as demonstration plot) with runoff control benefit monitoring system (hereinafter referred to as benefit monitoring system) based on the Internet of things in the Institute of urban environment (IUE), Chinese Academy of Sciences. As a science specialized in the ecosystem services and sustainable development, also, landsenseology is a new approach to land-use planning. To analyze the landsense creation' approach, principles, and ecosystem services capacity of the demonstration plot based on landsenseology's theory, which is helpful to make people-ecological infrastructure-natural environment integrate and adapt to each other more harmoniously, to provide experience for the creation of rain garden. It is found that the creation of the demonstration plot followed the bidirectional principle of vision manifestation, the vein-compliance principle of orientation and bearing, and the progressivity principle of process. And the demonstration plot could provide supporting service, regulating service, and cultural service to regional residents from various aspects. The benefit monitoring system monitored and analyzed the runoff control process and efficiency of the demonstration plot. We found that the demonstration plot had significant regulating service (runoff reduction) capacity, and people could feel cultural service and partial regulating service through their senses of sight, hearing, and touch. However, the Internet of things' monitoring technology is difficult to monitor the cultural service of aesthetics, environmental education, and popular science. Similarly, people's physical senses are difficult to feel the regulating service of runoff reduction, runoff quality purification, oxygen release, carbon fixation, and the supporting service of maintenance of soil quality. Therefore, this study believes that the effect of landsense creation of ecological infrastructure could be evaluated from the monitoring technology of the Internet of things and the physical senses of people. About the Internet of things' monitoring technology, it should add the monitoring links for regulating service and supporting service. The benefit monitoring system of this study would also increase the monitoring function of water purification service and local microclimate regulation service in the next step. About people's physical senses, we could evaluate the effect of landsense creation from the perspective of whether people could graft vision is consistent with the endow or integrate vision by landsense designer. If the grafted vision is part of the integrated vision, it means that there is room for further improvement of the landsense creation.
