- Abstract:

In order to scientifically and objectively estimate the suitability of rural residential areas, we utilized a data-driven maximum Entropy(maxEnt)model to assess the rural settlement suitability of Damao Banner in Baotou City based on natural environment, locational conditions, production conditions and ecological environment features. The results show that:(1)the most suitable areas mainly distribute in the Bailingmiao, Shibao, Xilamuren, Wukehudong Town and Xihe Town; the unsuitable areas are primarily located in the northeast zone of Damao Banner, such as Mandula, Bayinhua and Chaganhada Town;(2)the most important environmental factor affecting the suitability of its spatial distribution is distance from roads, which is followed by distance from cultivated land and forest land; distances from water area, slope, DEM and aspect factor have relatively weak influence on its suitability;(3)it seems that lowland orientation has little to do with the suitable spatial distribution of settlements in Damao Banner; the height from 1 350 m to 1 400 m is the most suitable; however, it is obvious that it has the directionality of the low gentle slope, with the most suitable between 0° and 2.5°; the south slope and southwest slope are the most suitable; with the increase of distance from roads, towns and forest, the living suitability decreases gradually; the factors of cultivated land as well as water area function similarly; at first, the suitability decreases with the increase of distance, then the suitable gentle region appears, drops off precipitously after exceeding a certain critical value, finally, it remains unchanged; the distance from the grass land from 300 m to 800 m is the most suitable. The lager vegetation coverage values are, the greater the living suitability of spatial distribution will be.
