説明

Urban green spaces provide multiple services to humans, such as recreation, disaster-prevention, amenity and amelioration of the environment. They also function as habitat, conduits and sinks for wildlife in urban areas. A cost-effective and technically feasible way to exploit the multiple benefits of urban green space is to utilize existing green space rather than to create new ones. Shrine/temple forests, in which indigenous regional vegetation has been preserved in near-natural state, can potentially act as centers for preservation and management of urban green space. Research in shrine/temple forests began with the phytosociological description of the vegetation. In recent years, the realization that shrine/temple forests are a type of fragmented forest, has lead to research regarding community structure/dynamics, habitat functions, and physicalenvironment. Research has spread, both quantitatively and qualitatively, to the effects of social factors on forest structure/dynamics, such as management both within and around the forest, separation of Shinto and Buddhism and policy such as the Urban Parks Law. Research has elucidated the need to assess the functions of shrine/ temple forests from a large-scale perspective and to consider human and social factors in addition to ecological factors. In addition, we now have a scientific basis to argue that human management is essential in order to utilize shrine/temple forests as central urban green space. We must accumulate and integrate research at multiple scales using multiple methods for future conservation and management of not only shrine/temple forests, but urban green space in general.
