Xiangshan Science Conference focuses on the development, utilization, monitoring, and early warning of natural resources


From October 16th to 17th, the 756th Xiangshan Science Conference academic discussion was held in Beijing, focusing on the development, utilization, monitoring, and early warning of natural resources. The conference invited academicians and experts to conduct in-depth discussions on the frontier dynamics of natural resources, monitoring and early warning technologies for natural resource changes, simulation of natural resource change processes and service platforms, and research on resource security supported by geographic information and artificial intelligence. The aim was to refine and deepen the key scientific questions in this field, providing scientific support for national resource security and ecological security.

 

Experts from the Natural Resources Comprehensive Survey Command Center of the China Geological Survey, the Department of Earth Sciences of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and the Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, respectively, exchanged academic views on promoting research on the earth's surface matrix, research hotspots in land science and natural resource management, and remote sensing monitoring and ecological effect assessment of agricultural land resource changes.

 

Zhou Cheng Hu, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, believes that the natural resource field should focus on a global perspective, a systems perspective, a scientific perspective, a cutting-edge perspective, and a development perspective. Focusing on the "2035 National Strategy for a Strong Technological Nation," it should break down barriers between different natural resource departments. It should treat various natural elements such as water, soil, light, life, and air, along with renewable natural resources, as a single system, controlling the intensity of natural resource development and utilization to promote the sustainable capacity of natural resource security.

 

Xu Ming Gang, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, indicated that dynamic monitoring of natural resources, research on the correlation between monitoring data, and the comprehensive application of multiple models should be strengthened. While widely promoting the use of AI technologies in the study of natural resource changes, it is necessary to be aware of the possibility that AI application may obscure the effects of extreme natural changes.

 

Wu Qiang, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, believes that natural resources and the environment are inseparable, and systematic restoration and governance must combine the natural environment with the humanistic environment or socio-economic environment. The protection, development, utilization, and detection monitoring and early warning of natural resources must integrate resource development, utilization, and protection with national economic and social development goals and constraints of the water, soil, and air environment.

 

Feng Zhi Ming, a researcher at the China Society for Natural Resources, proposed that natural resource security includes the basic security of natural resources and national resource security. The former involves the suitability of land space and the carrying capacity of natural resources, while the latter involves the supply of natural resources. Basic natural resource security requires strengthening the construction of a standardized, networked, integrated air-space-ground monitoring and assessment system to control the development, utilization, protection, monitoring, and early warning of natural resources.

 

Experts attending the meeting suggested: First, continue to promote the research and development of technical standards and regulations related to the monitoring and early warning of natural resource protection, development, and utilization, and particularly to introduce a natural resource classification standard as soon as possible. Second, vigorously promote the implementation of the construction plan for the national natural resource elements field observation research station network. Third, strengthen the research on the process mechanisms and effects of long-term continuous monitoring station networks, and verify it with the results of business-oriented investigation and monitoring.

 

The meeting's discussions summarized five issues requiring further research: issues related to comprehensive research on natural resources and the development of resource science; issues related to the relationship between resources, environment, and ecology; issues related to the position and standpoint of natural resource research; issues related to the scale of natural resource monitoring and early warning; and issues related to the theory and practice of natural resources. To this end, experts suggested establishing a key research and development project on monitoring and risk warning of natural resource changes to innovate the technical system of monitoring and early warning theories and methods; to coordinate the construction of national natural resource elements field observation research stations to consolidate the infrastructure and scientific basis for resource security monitoring and early warning; and to establish a natural resource science or natural science first-level discipline to promote the development and improvement of natural science, thereby promoting comprehensive research and systematic governance of natural resources.
